[Question] cannot install using npm install --save @ng-select/ng-select

[redcastle9]

Please fill below information if issuing a bug report.

Expected behaviour

When running npm install --save @ng-select/ng-select in my project I expect the package to get installed.

Actual behaviour

PS D:\Source\NPAInternal\sprint3\opat-cvg-client> npm install --save @ng-select/ng-select
Unrecognized token in source text.
At line:1 char:20

• npm install --save <<<< @ng-select/ng-select
  • CategoryInfo : ParserError: (:) [], ParentContainsErrorRecordException
  • FullyQualifiedErrorId : UnrecognizedToken
    

More Info

ng-select version: whatever is available right now

I am using npm version 6.4.1, node v10.15.1 and angular version 7.1.4

Is this problem with angular 7? I am unable to rollback to an earlier version of angular.

Try to type this by hand and not copy/paste maybe there are some hidden unicode characters (or space like character) in your command. I've tested both Ubuntu (Windows WSL) and PowerShell and it works fine.

I agree, there shouldn't be any problems installing it.

You could try enclosing the text containing at-sign within apostrophes ('), like so:
'@ng-select/ng-select'.
I had similar problem with another npm install command also containing an @-character, and it helped in that case.

can it be related to a 32 bit version? I got this same problem on an old laptop running windows 7

I had the same issue and after I added a ' before and after the statement it worked no problem.. e.g. this is the shell command for creating a microsoft sharepoint webpart. yo 'microsoft/sharepoint'

Was just facing same issue, added ' like others suggested and it worked.

Had to do npm install '@material-ui/core' instead of npm install @material-ui/core.
