Re: [nodejs] recommended way installing nodejs 12.04 on ubuntu 14.04

2015-07-01 Thread Witold Szczerba
My favorite way to install such things is to download binaries from a
project webpage and then symlink to /usr/local/bin or whatever other place
required. I can later delete the project from disk and remove all broken
links.

 Hi

 I have the followring question

 I'm have tried installing nodejs on ubuntu using the following command:

 sudo apt-get nodejs

 Problem is that it didnt install v0.12.5, but instead install an early
 version of nodej (10.4 I think). So I'm im not sure if  'sudo apt-get nodejs
 is the correct way of installing nodejs on ubuntu 14.04. So my question is:

 What is the recommended way of installing nodejs on ubuntu 14.04?

Re: [nodejs] recommended way installing nodejs 12.04 on ubuntu 14.04

2015-06-30 Thread Ryan Graham
The way I tend to do it is grab one of the binary tarballs and just do tar
-C /usr/local --strip-compontents 1 -xf node-v0.12.5-linux-x64.tgz,
normally by piping directly from curl (from a local mirror which I've
already verified the checksums on!). But I tend to use VMs and containers
and generate them using scripts, so instead of worrying about the easy
upgrading of using apt-get, I just re-build the image with a newer version
of node.

For my dev environment I just use nvm.
