(a) Compiled files
Simply said that after decompression, in the Bin folder already exist node and NPM, if you go into the corresponding file in the execution of the command line a bit of a problem is not, but not the overall, so set this as the global good.
./node-v
This will be completed, the node folder where the specific, what is the name of whatever you decide. Then set the global:
ln -s /xxxx/node-v0.10.33-linux-x64/bin/node /usr/local/bin/node
ln -s /xxxx/node-v0.10.33-linux-x64/bin/npm /usr/local/bin/npm
Here/home/kun/mysofltware/this path is your own, you will extract node files to where is.
(ii) compiling by source code
This way you download the file is source code, I don't like this way very much ... It's mainly trouble.
# tar xvf node-v0.10.33.tar.gz
# cd node-v0.10.33
# ./configure
# make
# make install
# cp /usr/local/bin/node /usr/sbin/
查看当前安装的Node的版本
# node -v
v0.10.33
(c) Apt-get
There is also a shell hint of the apt-get way, I was this way before the pit ... Strongly not recommended.
sudo apt-get install nodejs
sudo apt-get install npm
when you're done, you'll find that the node command works, and the Nodejs command can be used ...
Linux installation of "Nodejs" Nodejs (RPM)
