Question: Offline installs #1810
Comments
If your use case requires no network connection whatsoever, and you're unable to stand up a local webserver to mirror nodejs.org/dist, then your only option would be to preinstall nvm and the node versions you need, prior to disconnecting. |
Thanks for the info. Clients have these systems in remote areas that either have no bandwith or sometimes close to 3G speeds. Any roadmap for future support of offline install by nvm and node via nvm? I would say no, but can't hurt to ask just in case. |
Do you think it's be possible to tar the .nvm in the home folder and transfer it to the appropriate device, given the profile files were also modified? I should note that all of our devices have the same user on them. |
I think perhaps caching index.tab and enabling offline use for a warm cache is something i might be willing to add; full offline support tho doesn’t seem particularly valuable. Yes, absolutely you could tar up the nvm folder, with node/npm included, and manually replicate the profile files - provided that the machine architecture and OS on the source machine identically matched the target machine. |
I do have same issue, anyway to save a cache version of packages from the first install ? |
I work on a secure system cut off from internet, but I need to use nvm. I would think this is pretty common. I can manually transfer files in. Is there a manual step-by-step offline to achieve the same as online methods? Or do I need to start hacking the bash scripts and hope I don't hit a wall? Thanks. |
@smprather yes, you first |
I have been searching for answers for several days now, but have not found any adequate information, so now going straight to the source.
Several of our clients will be wanting to install our software in an offline environment.
