how to update npm on macOS
This works on my mac.
Based on docs https://docs.npmjs.com/troubleshooting/try-the-latest-stable-version-of-npm :
npm install -g npm@latest
There is a note stated on the docs that depends on your installation method, you might addd some sudo
.
Upgrading on *nix (OSX, Linux, etc.)
(You may need to prefix these commands with sudo, especially on Linux, or OS X if you installed Node using its default installer.)
npm install -g npm@latest
works fine!!
and you can also replace the latest for specific versions
like
npm install -g [email protected]
I hope it will help!!!
