As a newbie, i am trying to properly install yarn via VsCode terminal, and having an issue;
I use
yarn add -g #vue/cli
command to install, after installation i am still not able to use vue ui command(throws: the term ‘vue’ is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet…’), so it made me think of the vue.cmd not installed in my system, then i check my npm directory, i can see 3 different yarn files, but no vue files at all..
I have been using npm before and already uninstalled before yarn installation, with following command:
npm uninstall -g #vue/cli
After uninstalling npm, the vue files in npm directory are gone, as expected.
Is there any other step that I should take to install vue.cmd files(if its necessary)?
Maybe i should not have to uninstall npm, becacuse npm installation brings vue files into my system?
Thank you in advance,
Instead of using:
yarn add -g #vue/cli
Use this command:
yarn global add #vue/cli
Note: If you are on windows you have to use CMD to run vue cli commands. As by default PowerShell doesn't allow to run packages that were installed globally via npm or yarn. You may need to disable PowerShell security to use that package in PowerShell. But I recommend you to use cmd to use the package after installation. But still, you can install the package via PowerShell.
I am trying to install the aws-cdk and in the terminal and I run the npm install -g aws-cdk. As stated here After npm runs, I get:
/usr/local/Cellar/node/9.8.0/bin/cdk -> /usr/local/Cellar/node/9.8.0/lib/node_modules/aws-cdk/bin/cdk
+ aws-cdk#0.31.0
updated 1 package in 1.636s
If I try to run cdk I get:
zsh: command not found: cdk
Installing as root worked for me:
sudo npm install -g aws-cdk
Make sure /usr/local/Cellar/node/9.8.0/bin is in your PATH
In my case, I added this to the end of my .bash_profile:
export PATH=$PATH:$(npm get prefix)/bin.
I did that based on information from a different thread.
If you're using nvm to manage your node versions, make sure that the CDK package is being installed in the same version of node you're currently using or the version you want to use.
The OP noted their CDK was getting installed in node/9.8.0:
Check the current node version running: nvm current.
If you see that the CDK installation location is different than the node version indicated by nvm current, you'll need to switch your node version using:
nvm use <node-version-where-cdk-is-installed>
In the OP's case, this would be nvm use 9.8.0.
What worked for me in mac was adding to the path the bin directory of globally installed node modules.
Install aws-cdk by:
npm install -g aws-cdk
Try to run it
cdk
no command found error
make or edit your .zshrc file in your user directory
add line to .zshrc with export PATH=$PATH:/{your_user_path}/.npm-global/bin
execute it source .zshrc
now cdk should work
Pay attention that it is mac based approach.
While installing the dependencies of vue-cli, vue is not identified. Why?
rm -rf node_modules and npm install again
have a look here
Add sudo before yarn when installing
yarn global remove #vue/cli
sudo yarn global add #vue/cli
vue
I had the same issue for a while.
TL;DR
npm install #vue/cli-service --save-dev
As the documentation specify it is a development dependency https://cli.vuejs.org/guide/#cli-service
The CLI Service (#vue/cli-service) is a development dependency. It's an npm package installed locally into every project created by #vue/cli.
Origin
I had a fresh install of nodejs
And just did
>> sudo npm install -g #vue/cli#latest
>> vue --version
#vue/cli 4.5.8
The issue
The issue presented like this
>> npm run serve
yarn run v1.22.10
$ vue-cli-service build --mode development --watch
/bin/sh: 1: vue-cli-service: not found
error Command failed with exit code 127.
info Visit https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/cli/run for documentation about this command.
The fixes:
npm install #vue/cli-service --save-dev
Which led me straight to another error message
>> npm run serve
yarn run v1.22.10
$ vue-cli-service build --mode development --watch
ERROR Error: Cannot find module 'vue-template-compiler/package.json'
Which I fixed the same way
npm i vue-template-compiler --save-dev
And now it is working fine.
Installing current version without permanently installing vue-cli.
npx #vue/cli create appname
It shows the vue executable is located at /home/alisha/.local/bin. So probably this location is not there in your $PATH.
You should be able to run the vue commands if you provide the full path, like:
~/.local/bin/vue create hello-world
You can also see if that directory is in your PATH by running some command like:
echo $PATH | grep '.local/bin/'
If it's there, you would see it, otherwise you can add it to your path by placing it in your ~/.profile.
Edit ~/.profile and add the following at the bottom of it.
PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
Hope it helps!!
I had the same issue while making a build for production.
You will require vue-cli to be installed. Use below command to install the latest version.
npm install -g #vue/cli#latest
Then
npm install
Might have to do with you having an old version on your computer:
Warning regarding Previous Versions
The package name changed from vue-cli to #vue/cli. If you have the previous vue-cli (1.x or 2.x) package installed globally, you need to uninstall it first with
npm uninstall vue-cli -g or yarn global remove vue-cli.
You can find it here: https://cli.vuejs.org/guide/installation.html
THIS FIXED THE ISSUE FOR ME:
After running
sudo npm install -g #vue/cli
I ran
sudo nano $HOME/.profile
and pasted the following line
export PATH=$PATH:/home/chike/.npm-global/bin
after writing the code, next thing I did was Ctrl + O, ENTER and Ctrl + X then wrote
vue init webpack myapp
When you install vue using cli that time you got the path of vue.Now you can copy the bin folder path.
In my example /home/sublime/.npm-packages/bin
Now you export the path below command
export PATH=$PATH:/home/sublime/.npm-packages/bin
I solved mine by running (add sudo if needed)
npm i -g vue-cli#2.9.6
npm i -g #vue/cli
Got similar issue when deploy vue project in jenkins.
Here is what I did:
Add node's bin/ dir, to jenkins user's .bashrc file.
e.g
# node
NODE_HOME=/home/dev/.nvm/versions/node/default
PATH=$NODE_HOME/bin:$PATH
Tips - about nvm & yarn
When you manage node version via nvm, make sure you already choose the node version in terminal. e.g:
nvm use stable
node -v
If you use nvm, and installed yarn via npm, then better install vue-cli via npm not yarn, otherwise the vue executable is not placed into node's bin/ dir, at least that's the case in my tests, and as a result will cause you fail to find the vue command.
Using Yarn on Ubuntu it is installed to ~/.npm-packages/bin/. You must add this directory to your PATH. For example run the following command, close your terminal and open a new one.
user#machine:~$ echo 'export PATH="$PATH:~/.npm-packages/bin/"' >> ~/.bashrc
Note: if the file ~/.bashrc does not exist then simply create it.
Following worked for me:
First remove all the existing ones:
yarn global remove #vue/cli
yarn global remove #vue/cli-service
sudo yarn global remove #vue/cli
sudo yarn global remove #vue/cli-service
Then add #vue/cli using sudo:
Note: use sudo if required
yarn global add #vue/cli
yarn global add #vue/cli-service
Then, the final thing to do is to RESTART the terminal.
vue --version
#vue/cli 4.5.9
If you already got a project, the only two things you need to do is:
Delete the directory node_modules (it is safe, since it is not under git and will regenerate in the next step)
In the command-line write yarn install (it will install everything you need)
If you start installing vue-cli manually in a existing project, it the package.json and package-lock.json will be updated. If you already did. Do a checkout from git, and follow my steps above
This may be a problem caused by version conflicts. "export PATH=$PATH:" This is really useful in some cases. But if you are also like me, after trying the direct “export path” method in the comment above, restarting the terminal still can not execute the situation, you can try this way.
Uninstall Vue
npm uninstall -g #vue/cli
Check the local-global npm package installation path, vue is installed in this directory, check if it has been removed.
npm root -g
Install vue (you can check with https://cli.vuejs.org/#getting-started to find the latest command)
npm install -g #vue/cli
Create a connection to the /usr/local/bin directory(You need to find the vue.js path after the local installation first, then replace this path with your latest local install path:/Users/xxxxx/.npm-global/lib/node_modules/#vue/cli/bin/vue.js)
ln -s /Users/xxxxx/.npm-global/lib/node_modules/#vue/cli/bin/vue.js /usr/local/bin/vue
View version number
vue -v
I was getting the same error because Node.js was not installed. My issue got resolved by installing Node.js using the following command:
sudo apt install nodejs-legacy
To see if you already have Node.js and npm installed and check the installed version, run the following commands:
node -v
npm -v
If both are installed then follow the steps here:
https://docs.npmjs.com/resolving-eacces-permissions-errors-when-installing-packages-globally
I installed the package using yarn global add #vue/cli on my Ubuntu box and found the binary in /home/vonkad/.yarn/bin.
I had to modify my /home/vonkad/.bashrc and add the directory to the path export PATH=$PATH:/home/vonkad/.yarn/bin.
To fix this situation, I had to add the following line to my .zshrc (maybe in your case is .bashrc)
export PATH="$(yarn global bin):$PATH"
Effectively, the yarn global bin is a folder where vue (vue-cli 3) was placed.
What helped me
mac os catalina with zsh terminal
Uninstalled node and npm using https://www.positronx.io/how-to-uninstall-node-js-and-npm-from-macos/
Downloaded node/npm from https://nodejs.org/en/download/current/
sudo npm install -g #vue/cli
vue --version (#vue/cli 4.5.4)
I faced the same issue and now resolved. In my case I installed Node.js and NPM using the default Ubuntu repository by using this command sudo apt-get install nodejs npm
The problems seemed like those 2 packages are not well maintained so it caused some bugs.
So I purge those packages and reinstall it from nodesource which is officially recommended way to install (reference: Installation instruction from nodesource) using these commands.
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_14.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
Then reinstall #vue/cli again
sudo npm install -g #vue/cli
Now these issues have gone. Hope it helps some programmers.
You need to install vue via sudo like explained in the doc:
https://cli.vuejs.org/guide/installation.html
If you have WSL2 running and you use zsh like me, just add
yarn global add #vue/cli
# add this line to ~/.zshrc
export PATH="$HOME/.yarn/bin:$PATH"
$ vue --version
#vue/cli 4.x.xx
You can try the following code install see
npm install --global vue-cli
vue init webpack <YOUR-PROJECT-NAME-HERE>
cd <YOUR-PROJECT-NAME-HERE>
npm install
npm run dev
If I have an old version of node (for example downloaded from Ubuntu repos), and I use sudo npm install #angular/cli -g, will that download the last version of #angular/cli that is known to work with that version of node, or will that always install the latest version of #angular/cli, even if that version is incompatible with my version of node?
I'm asking because I encountered a problem that makes me think that the second variant is what takes place. But at the same time, my experience with package managers like apt-get has led me to believe that they generally make sure to install compatible versions - apt-get will not install packages for Ubuntu 17.10.1 if your distro is Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS, for example.
So I'm curious to know if npm behaves more like apt-get in that regard, or not.
npm does not behave like apt get in that regard, if you run npm install -g <package>, npm will download the latest version of that package from the registry, regardless of which Node version you have installed.
We can actually test this using the #angular/cli example. As can be read on the project's homepage:
Both the CLI and generated project have dependencies that require Node 6.9.0 or higher, together with NPM 3 or higher.
So if I downgrade my Node version to the final 5.x release:
$ nvm install 5.12.0
Downloading and installing node v5.12.0...
Downloading https://nodejs.org/dist/v5.12.0/node-v5.12.0-linux-x64.tar.xz...
######################################################################## 100,0%
Computing checksum with sha256sum
Checksums matched!
Now using node v5.12.0 (npm v3.8.6)
And then run npm install #angular/cli -g, you can see that npm couldn't care less which version of Node I am running:
$ npm ls -g --depth=0
/home/jack/.nvm/versions/node/v5.12.0/lib
├── #angular/cli#1.7.1
└── npm#3.8.6
As a side note, you might want to look into using a Node version manager, as this will mean you don't need to run npm install using sudo. Here's a good guide if you're interested. This is especially relevant in regard to the recent npm shenanigans (ref.: Unlucky Linux boxes trampled by NPM code update, patch zapped)
I have just installed Homebrew and then I have installed Node (via $ brew install node). When node was installed, npm was automatically installed too (why?).
anyway, now when I install any package from npm, for example $ npm install -g express - it is installed in two locations:
Users/myuser/.npm/express and usr/local/lib/node_modules/express
$ which express retrieves me usr/local/bin/express which refers to usr/local/lib/node_modules/express. I think it's ok that it's installed inside usr/local/lib/node_modules/.. because I used -g flag; but why it is also installed under my own user (Users/myuser/.npm)?
In addition, how does the terminal know about express command? I didn't define any .bash_profile file. how does it know to go to usr/local/bin/$PATH?
Node installs NPM also because Node without NPM wouldn't be Node! :)
NPM is all about a succesful registry. You wouldn't go much further without it.
~/.npm is a cache for all packages - so this actually isn't an installation. As you may know about caches, this is just to avoid re-downloading things over time.
Also, this is configurable via the cache config.
Finally, the last location - usr/local/lib/node_modules is the actual global installation of Express.
