cannot install, permission error about alm HOT 6 CLOSED

Impressive turnaround time! I can confirm 2.39.1 does install correctly in npm 5.8.0.

So many projects have faced issues with the NPM 5.x series, it's actually pretty frustrating from a user standpoint.

error /Users/kevinnwang/.npm/_cacache/tmp/git-clone-d43aaec9/.git: Permission denied

One of node / npm / git is broken for you. Not an error in alm so closing 🌹

Suggestion for help ❤️.

For others who trip up on this error, note that this is a bug in npm 5: npm/npm#19706

@basarat the correct fix is to upgrade the ts-node dependency. 4.0.2 fixed the issue with the dependencies. The package.json in the git repo uses a good version of ts-node, but the latest npm version still uses a bad ts-node version, so maybe it's a good time to consider a 2.38.2 release

In the interim, the fix is to roll back to npm 4:

sudo npm install -g [email protected]
sudo npm install -g alm

We have ts-node 5.0.0 :

Thanks for you interest ❤️ 🌹

You updated the source tree but NPM doesn't automagically update -- you have to cut a new version and npm publish.

To see what npm currently has, use unpkg to take a peek at the latest version's package.json:

{
  "name": "alm",
  "version": "2.38.1", // <-- last release predates the commit that updated ts-node
  ...
  "dependencies": {
    ...
    "ts-node": "4.0.1", // <-- still 4.0.1
    ...
  },
  ...
}

Sorry, my bad. Release 2.39.1 🌹 ❤️
