I recently study node and try to use npm to install node-inspector globally. But it always suspends here as following pic
I have changed the registry config for times, but it still doesn't work. Anyone can help? TAT
When npm install is stuck, you can increase verbosity of the output from install.
npm config set loglevel verbose
npm install -g node-inspector
Setting the log level to verbose will output a LOT of information. Based on the output you can find out where the errors/warnings are occurring and resolve them.
If git protocol is somehow involved and git's port is being blocked (TCP 9418), you could use https by doing
git config --global url.https://github.com/.insteadOf git://github.com/
npm install -g node-inspector
As you mentioned, you could use cnpm. Feel free to write your own answer and accept that one since that solved your problem.

It seems I have a path error, I can see proof the package installed, and I've tried it both globally and local, tried both with and w/o the -cli suffix, but zshell keeps complaining command not found

zsh: command not found: ganache-cli
I might have done something bad, using a sudo rm -rf node_modules command to uninstall the package, was that dangerous to do? I reinstalled it globally and then tried running it again, and then zshell started complaining I wasn't authorized to run ganache. I tried the command sudo ganache, it asked me for password, and then responded again that command not found.
Can someone help me get back on track with my tutorial?
According to Ganache-CLI's instructions, it should be installed with:
npm install ganache-cli -g
I'd recommend installing the latest Ganache version rather than installing Ganache-CLI, though. Ganache-CLI is deprecated. Use
npm uninstall ganache-cli && npm install ganache -g
Ganache v7.0.0 and onward can be used in the CLI as well as programatically.
On another note, I strongly recommend against using sudo when installing anything via npm. This can give untrusted code the ability to run as admin on your system. Definitely a big security risk.
Just a follow up on difficulties I was having, I ended up using yarn to download and run ganache (MINUS the -cli suffix, -cli suffix now deprecated), yarn install ganache --global to install and then yarn ganache to run (no -cli necessary)
Here's how I found the solution for my specific use case. The bug came about when I was attempting to run a brownie deployment script. Run npm uninstall ganache-cli then run yarn global add ganache. Worked like a charm.
When I run npm install it seems to work fine until part way installing packages. It seems to have no problem with the first half, but then after a while it will fail to be able to reach other packages. I just get the repeating errors, eg:
npm http request GET https://registry.npmjs.org/react-hot-loader
npm info attempt registry request try #3 at 6:43:34 AM
npm http request GET https://registry.npmjs.org/react-tap-event-plugin
npm info attempt registry request try #3 at 6:43:34 AM
npm http request GET https://registry.npmjs.org/react-test-renderer
etc.
It will continue to do this for an hour and and then the install will fail.
The install breaks at a different package each time so I don't think it's a problem with a particular file.
I can access these files fine with my browser and curl.
My work has a firewall but this domain is whitelisted.
Would anyone know what I could do to get this to work or what could be causing it?
If it's about the timing problem you should find a speed solutions for npm install.
So you can try these faster command than npm install :
pnpm install %70 faster
or
npm install --no-audit 15% faster
or
npm install --prefer-offline --no-audit 15% faster
check this article for details : speeding up npm install
You can override the max and min timeout in ~/.npmrc.
// npm config ls -l
// add these 2 lines in ~/.npmrc
fetch-retry-maxtimeout = 6000000
fetch-retry-mintimeout = 1000000
If your internet connection is the problem, try increasing the timeout:
npm config set timeout 6000000
The value is a 32-bit int.
If it's still relevant or maybe for other people of interest: For me it helped, deleting the package.lock file and running npm cache clean --force.
It might not be your case, but I had issues with a package being hosted at github with the repo url being only with git protocol (port 9418 not usually open on firewall).
Once added that to the firewall I could npm install without issues.
You can view the repository url with:
$ npm view zone.js repository.url
git://github.com/angular/angular.git
I saw an answer earlier that can resolve your problem by overriding the max and min timeout in ~/.npmrc file, but some didn't understand how to do it.
First go to the nodejs folder - for me it's located at ( Y:\Program Files\nodejs )
Open the node_modules folder.
Then npm folder.
Select (.npmrc) file + right click and open it with any text editor you want.
Finally add these 2 lines and click Ctrl+S
fetch-retry-maxtimeout = 6000000
fetch-retry-mintimeout = 1000000
.npmrc file after modification
npm cache clean --force
npm install --force
It works fine.
If you are on windows, try running vscode as administrator, it worked for me, I tried npm config delete https-proxy , npm config delete proxy and , tried deleting node_modules, and package.lock.json and ran npm cache clean --force but at last ran vscode as adminitrator before deleting node_modules and package.lock.json, it worked
I solved the timeout issue by executing these commands:
rm package-lock.json
npm i
I'm using nvm on my Terminal and successfully installed node 10.2.1, which also installed npm 6.1.0. However, when I go to my VS Code editor, it gives me warnings in the integrated terminal for:
npm WARN npm npm does not support Node.js v10.2.1
npm WARN npm You should probably upgrade to a newer version of node as we
npm WARN npm can't make any promises that npm will work with this version.
npm WARN npm Supported releases of Node.js are the latest release of 4,6, 7, 8, 9.
Turns out, it is actually using npm 5.5.1 (npm -v).
I check to see what's up with that and tried to dig further and eventually used: which npm on both integrated terminal and Mac's CLI.
Mac's Terminal shows:
/Users/Aiz/.nvm/versions/node/v10.2.1/bin/npm
VS Code's Terminal shows:
/usr/local/bin/npm. Which is interesting, because if you do which node in this terminal, it results in the appropriate /Users/Aiz/.nvm/versions/node/v10.2.1/bin/node.
I'm not sure how to get my VS Code terminal to point to the appropriate npm install through nvm. Not sure if it helps, but I checked npm get prefix and npm -g bin to find /Users/Aiz/.nvm/versions/node/v10.2.1. The only difference I'm finding is where each terminal is using npm from.
I ended up looking through VS Code issues on GitHub and came across something relevant to NVM and node issues. It fixed my issue since the underlying cause was the same.
Essentially what happened is that I had a global install of node before that I removed prior to using NVM but hadn't removed my global install of npm. This was causing conflicts in VS Code's terminal (not Mac's terminal). In order to fix this, you essentially have to find the symlink for which npm and remove the node_modules and npm associated recursively.
Here's the link you'll need: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-docs/blob/master/docs/editor/integrated-terminal.md#why-is-nvm-complaining-about-a-prefix-option-when-the-integrated-terminal-is-launched.
Don't forget to restart your editor after.
Another solution is to implement this. https://medium.com/#kinduff/automatic-version-switch-for-nvm-ff9e00ae67f3
Basically, nvm will check for a .nvmrc and switch or default each time you go to a new directory in shell.
It does have a dependency on zsh.
The fix for me on Ubuntu:
A.) sudo apt-get remove nodejs npm
B.) Removed lines in my .bashrc that added the npm package directory to the path.
C.) Restart VS Code.
I doubt step A is necessary. But B and C certainly are.
Our developers pull all of their npm dependencies via an artifactory proxy. The artifactory setup uses a virtual repository that consists of a local npm repository and a remote npm repository.
When developers perform an npm install, the process is slow and often hangs at
fetchMetadata -> network
Any ideas on tracing the source of this issue?
Does artifactory provide a 'trace' api for npm resources, similar to what they have for maven dependencies here maven trace?
Would re-indexing the virtual repository on artifactory help?
Struggled with the same thing. By adding the debug flag when running install helped me. I don't know why, might be some race condition or to many half open connections or something else. When the debug flag is added each step takes a fraction of a second longer to complete, and that seems to be enough. Here's an example for a local package:
npm install -d
or a longer example:
sudo npm install -g -ddd eslint-cli
The number of d's tells npm how verbose debug you want. More d's means more info and longer time to execute. One d did it for me, but my laptop is slow to begin with.
I'm suffering from the infamous npm install (update) hanging problem.
So far I found following recipes:
cleaned the cache: npm cache clean
deleted npm_modules in my project
set the registry to plain http (http://registry.npmjs.org/): npm config set registry http://registry.npmjs.org/
used --loglevel=verbose flag with npm install
increased number of connections as described here:
Increasing the maximum number of tcp/ip connections in linux
Yet it still hangs. The position at which it hangs seems to be random. It can be
npm verb get saving gulp-traceur to /home/me/.npm/registry.npmjs.org/gulp-traceur/.cache.json; or when installing npm verb afterAdd /home/me/.npm/q/0.9.7/package/package.json the last package downloaded is really random.
The versions are:
npm info using npm#2.7.5
npm info using node#v0.12.0
So the question is if there is anything else I can do about it?
I don't know if you have the same problem as I did but I can't make a comment to your question because I have not enough reputation.
Today somebody found solution to my similar problem. You can check it here:
Sometimes you need to use --force command to make sure the cache is cleaned:
npm cache clean --force.
Maybe related to this issue.
I tried all the above. I use homebrew and had to uninstall node / npm.
This worked for me:
brew install nvm
nvm install node
Afterwards npm started working again for me.
