I am running an apache2 web application on Bash on Windows - WSL. The project has following node dependencies described in package.json
{
"name": "xxx",
"version": "1.0.0",
"private": true,
"dependencies": {
},
"devDependencies": {
"gulp": "^3.9.1",
"gulp-uglify": "^1.5.1",
"gulp-concat": "^2.6.0",
"gulp-sourcemaps": "^2.4.0"
},
"engines": {
"node": ">=4"
}
}
Doing a simple npm install
gives errors similar to the one below. So, I used sudo npm install -g
on all the packages manually. Since gulp still needs a local copy in the project directory, it needs npm install gulp --save-dev
commands. This generated following error.
user@DESKTOP:/var/www/xxx/xxx$ sudo npm install gulp --save-dev

Also, by default all files and directories in /var/www
in WSL have root:root
user:group
. Local node_modules/
directory is always empty.
