command line - How can i install npm in ubuntu to run less js -
i have installed node js in ubuntu 14.04, not able install npm in it. want compile less through command line need npm.
is there way compile less or how can install npm in ubuntu?
first things first, run sudo apt-get update.
npm should installed along node.js. it's possible have name collision issue; ubuntu repository carries program called 'node' (a program ham radio operators) unrelated node.js. further, many node modules assume 'node' refers node.js.
try removing node:
sudo apt-get remove node
use which nodejs see command node.js lives. create symlink somewhere in path node points nodejs, e.g.
sudo ln -s [path/to/nodejs/here] /usr/bin/node
after that, /usr/bin should in system's path variable, should able use node.js typing 'node'. e.g. try node --version. should match nodejs --version.
if none of works, can try removing nodejs , node, install nodejs-legacy, supposed use command 'node' default. consider installing node.js source. can find binary , source downloads @ nodejs.org, or can latest version github (joyent/node).
