Installing NodeJS (OSX)

Note: Both the package and Homebrew install of NodeJS come bundled with npm.

Installing NodeJS through the standard package install requires root privileges; which may cause permission issues down the line. We recommend you install NodeJS through Homebrew:

# If you've previously (or have currently) installed node,
# skip this and see next section!
brew update
brew install node

Homebrew does not require root privileges and installs (typically) into /usr/local/bin.

Uninstall a Node Pkg Install (OSX)

I've you've previously uninstalled NodeJS through the package installer; it's important to uninstall the old version before proceeding with a Homebrew install.

Follow these steps to remove NodeJS from your system:

1. Remove any files / folders named node, node_modules, .npm from:

   • /usr/local/lib
   • /usr/local/include
   • /usr/local/bin
   • /usr/local/share/man/man1/
   • /usr/local/lib/dtrace/
   • /Users/USERNAME/

2. Now correct (probably clobbered) permissions:

   • sudo chown -R `whoami` /usr/local/lib/

After this is complete run:

brew update
brew doctor

Follow any instructions it gives you before proceeding.

Finally:

brew install node
