Installation
Windows
- Use the latest 64-bit installer
- Then you can just use it from a cmd prompt, eg: npm install -g rad-scripts
Linux
- install Node.js using the "Node.js Version Manager" nvm details
- find the latest nvm version
- curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.29.0/install.sh | bash
- restart terminal (or...
export NVM_DIR="/home/m/.nvm" [ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && . "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" # This loads nvm
- nvm ls-remote
- nvm install node # to get the latest release (stable by default) - you can pick a release too if needed, eg 5.8.0)
- nvm alias default stable
- (update .bashrc to configure node on even non-interactive shells - see another for example)
- also: nvm use 4.2.1; node -v; nvm ls; nvm alias default 0.11.13; nvm use default
- also: You can create an .nvmrc file containing version number in the project root directory and it will default to that version
- example: npm install -g rad-scripts # to set the package manager to use a globally shared location
