If you’re looking for an easy guide to install Node.js and npm on OS X and macOS — this is it.
- In Nodejs 9.3.0 npm@5.6.0 behind a Fortigate FW with SSL inspection I had problems installing angular/cli, was getting 'npm ERR! Code SELFSIGNEDCERTINCHAIN' So I did: npm config set strict-ssl false then: npm install npm -g -ca NULL and now I'm able to install @angular/cli@1.63 with npm install -g @angular/cli.
- Npm cache doesnt work for node versions 8.9.4. It says 'npm ERR! As of npm@5, the npm cache self-heals from corruption issues and data extracted from the cache is guaranteed to be valid. If you want to make sure everything is consistent, use 'npm cache verify' instead'. In this case, what is the turnaround for 'npm cache clean'?

Nvm install 12.18.3 // update node version through node version manager npm install npm // update your npm version to latest Delete your nodemodules folder and package-lock.json file. Force clean the entire NPM cache by using following comand. Npm cache clean -force Re-Install all the dependencies. The Node installer installs, directly into the npm folder, a special piece of Windows-specific configuration that tells npm where to install global packages. When npm is used to install itself, it is supposed to copy this special builtin configuration into the new install. There was a bug in some versions of npm that kept this from working, so.
The default method for installing Node.js is to download a pre-built installer for your platform, install it and make sure it’s on your $PATH.
However, if you’re a Homebrew fan like me and prefer to install all of your packages with it — ensuring your packages are installed using the same commands and directories and allowing Homebrew to easily manage upgrades and updates — then this guide will help you get started.
Install Node.js and npm with Homebrew
First, install Homebrew.
Then run brew update to make sure Homebrew is up to date.
As a safe measure you should run brew doctor to make sure your system is ready to brew. Run the command below and follow any recommendations from brew doctor.
Next, add Homebrew’s location to your $PATH in your .bash_profile or .zshrc file.
Install Npm On Mac Without Brew
Next, install Node (npm will be installed with Node):
To test out your Node and npm install, try installing Grunt (you might be asked to run with sudo):
If that worked then congratulations — you’ve installed Node.js, npm, and Grunt.
If not — retrace your steps or post a question to Stack Overflow.
