How to Node.js, NPM version upgrade

 

I used the following instructions to upgrade from Node.js and NPM version 6.14.14 to 7.23.0 on a Mac. It's very easy and simple.

 

I found npm version updates!

 

▶ Node.js Version Upgrade 

 

1. clean NPM's cache

 

sudo npm cache clean -f

 

2. Install module called 'n' which is Node.js version management helper.

 

sudo npm install -g n

 

3. Install stable or latest version Node.js

 

sudo n stable

 

by use 'n', you can interarctively manage your node.js version.

 

• n latest (latest version)
• n stable (stable version)
• n lts (lts version)
• n x.x.x (specific version)

 

4. Version check

 

node -v

 

▶ NPM Version Upgrade

 

1. Install npm 

 

sudo npm install -g npm

 

 

2. Version check

 

npm -v
