How to install gulp globally?

Question

ubuntu

Tell me what could be the problem? I'm trying to install gulpjs with the command
sudo npm install -g gulp
After a long wait of 10-15 minutes, I get the following output

npm ERR! Linux 3.13.0-58-generic
npm ERR! argv "/usr/bin/node" "/usr/bin/npm" "install" "--global" "gulp"
npm ERR! node v0.12.7
npm ERR! npm  v2.11.3

Answer 1

Well, in general, it is written in English and white that the problem is with the network, and, most likely, with the proxy. Here are a couple of links: jjasonclark.com/how-to-setup-node-behind-web-proxy wil.boayue.com/blog/2013/06/14/using-npm-behind-a -... strange errors appear, then try to do npm config set registry http://registry.npmjs.org/this - this will change the address where npm goes for packages to HTTP-shny (instead of the default HTTPS).
