Ajay Yadava commented on LENS-868:
----------------------------------
Although I am not an expert on node, I think node doesn't restrict you to
installing modules in same directory. A quick look through the
documentation(https://docs.npmjs.com/misc/config) reveals the following section:
{quote}
global
Default: false
Type: Boolean
Operates in "global" mode, so that packages are installed into the prefix
folder instead of the current working directory. See npm-folders for more on
the differences in behavior.
packages are installed into the {prefix}/lib/node_modules folder, instead of
the current working directory.
bin files are linked to {prefix}/bin
man pages are linked to {prefix}/share/man
