newbie

[brw31415]

hi, i'm seeking poor man's alternative way to install this since i use free cloud based (ie cloud9, sourceLair) services or remote machine owned by someone else. In all these cases I cant do a global install. Also most aren't using the latest version of node (10.4) or npm (2.6). Can I install and run it locally, say using git? thanks, i'm really anxious to start studing and using this. brian

You should be able to do a local install, as long as you can modify your $PATH to include ./node_modules/.bin. Note that the CLI commands will then only work in the root directory of your project.

great, thanks for your quick response. what about the issue of node and npm
versions? what is the minimum required.

I am not really sure to be honest. We should support node 10 just fine and npm version shouldn't matter at all, but I can't promise it will work. Don't think we ever tried.

I would definitely be interested in how it went when you try.

Viktor,

These are error messages from two failed attempts using npm to install it
locally

I did have it running globally on one system, but the admin took it all
down because i'm not supposed to run globally.

on another system, I got this far and then it wouldn't run. (also how to
you change the port number from something other than 3000)

You can change the port with the ARCH_PORT environment variable I believe.

Not sure about the other error. @tabazevedo any ideas?

@brw31415 looking through your log it seems you have a problem with your node installation and its telling you to run
echo "export NODE_PATH=$NODE_PATH:/nix/store/a5ibcbcsm473kdr75kj4gpsr28ndnknp-nodejs-0.10.26/lib/node_modules" >> ~/.bashrc && source ~/.bashrc

Hi Victor,

I just thought I'd send you this link regarding problems with npm.
