I read about that (in node docs and tutorials) but when I build node,
it appears NPM isn't there (at least not in my path).
I set up my node and NPM path prior to building node.
% vi ~/.npmrc
root = /home/node/.local/lib/node_modules
binroot = /home/node/.local/bin
manroot = /home/node/.local/share/man
Then I download, extract, and build node itself.
% wget http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.8.12/node-v0.8.12.tar.gz;
% tar xzf node-*
% cd ~/node-*
% ./configure --prefix=~/.local && make && make install
The net result is NPM doesn't seem to be installed. What am I missing.
I always just go back to:
% curl https://npmjs.org/install.sh | sh
Of course to make sure everything works I set up my environment first.
% ln -s ~/.local/lib/node_modules ~/.node_modules
% echo 'export PATH=$HOME/.local/bin:${PATH}' >> ~/.bashrc
% source ~/.bashrc
