When running npm install -g yo I get a string of errors. I attempted to remove the yo module but it didn't fix it. Anyone have any ideas? Tried searching, couldn't find an answer.

Terminal output:

Did you try installing as admin using sudo so : sudo npm install yo -g

Also, could maybe try cleaning npm cache first: npm cache clean and/or npm cache clear

Check the npm troubleshooting guide for more potential ideas.

Shouldn't I be able to run npm without sudo? Isn't this generally
discouraged?

I'm definitely not an expert and yes I think it is generally discouraged. However I have still seen plenty of resources recommending sudo. Heck, even the 'official' npm troubleshooting guide itself notes that you might need to use it.

Ultimately, I do think it depends on your specific setup.

You should chown your /usr/local to be owned by your primary user, and you should never use sudo, sudo causes no end of problems for npm.

The wiki does offer the following solution:

- Try again with sudo. e.g. sudo npm install express -g or
- Reinstall node so it doesn't require sudo.

and when I try to run yo ember from a directory on my desktop. It places it on the desktop instead of the folder

i also get this message when I run brew doctor

So there were a few things going on here, but almost all of them have been addressed as of npm@2.0.0, with the most important fix being in #6043. To ensure everything is in a sane state, you may need to:

  1. either remove your cache (sudo npm cache clean or, simply, sudo rm -r ~/.npm) or change it to be owned by you (sudo chown -R $(whoami) ~/.npm)
  2. update to npm@2.0.0 (if you have write access to /usr/local, run npm -g install npm@2.0.0, if you don't, run sudo npm -g install npm@2.0.0 – it's important to get this right, as messing it up basically causes npm to uninstall itself)
  3. reinstall Yeoman / grunt-cli / ember-cli globally

Once you do those things, everything should work as advertised.
