Installing node. js with NVM under CentOS 6

The version of GCC installed through Yum in CentOS 6 is 4.4.7, which will cause the compilation to fail when installing node. js with the release of the GCC version too low

warning:c++ compiler too old, need g++ 4.8 or clang++ 3.4 (cxx=g++)

In fact, not only is the GCC version too low, but it is also possible that the PY version is too low, or that Py cannot recognize the bz2 problem.

The best solution is to install node. js through NVM.

Install command (currently the latest version is 0.33.2, the latest version can be viewed here):

curl-o-https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.33.2/install.sh | bash

Restart the shell after installation to view the NVM version with the following command:

NVM--version

View all node versions

NVM ls-remote

may be slow due to too many versions, for example, when the latest stable version of node is v6.10.2, install it with the following command

NVM Install v6.10.2

View the installed node version

Node--version
NPM--version

Toggle Node Version

NVM use v6.10.2

Set this version as the default

default v6.10.2

That's it.
