JS itself has the Windows version and the UNIX version of the download and use is very convenient but its extension module relies on the complexity of manually downloading to the website is very troublesome, so the NPM introduction is Require installation on Linux or on Windows via Cygwin, follow the online method to download Cygwin install node. JS is unsuccessful (execution./configure Cygwin not supported) many attempts have been fruitless, the Internet is no answer, In the spirit of the collapse of the border inadvertently opened the NPM documentation, there is a section to explain how to install NPM under Windows, follow its instructions to finally successfully installed NPM under Windows. It is still cool to use the download file is a bit slow.

Step one: Download the current version of the Windows version of node.

Add git Install bin directory to PATH environment variable after installation is complete

CMD Run to git --version confirm the installation is successful

git config --system http.sslcainfo /bin/curl-ca-bundle.crt

git clone --recursive git://github.com/isaacs/npm.git

cd npm

node cli.js install npm -gf

It's better to set up a domestic image, or the download will be slow

GitHub NPM hits the wall with a solution.

GitHub
Proxy server is a must, I use the local Astrill
Set up a proxy for curl
Export http_proxy= "127.0.0.1:3213"
Export https_proxy= "127.0.0.1:3213"
Okay, OK.
