Running npm to get root tools without root access

By
Perfect! Let’s set up npm on Termux/Linux so you can install global packages without sudo and get real-time script output. This is a clean, “upgraded” setup. --- Step 1: Create a global npm directory mkdir ~/.npm-global This will be the new location for all global npm packages. --- Step 2: Configure npm to use this directory npm config set prefix '~/.npm-global' npm config set foreground-scripts true prefix → tells npm where to install global packages. foreground-scripts → ensures scripts run in the foreground so you can see output immediately. --- Step 3: Add the npm global bin to your PATH Edit your shell profile (~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc) and add: export PATH="$HOME/.npm-global/bin:$PATH" Then reload your shell: source ~/.bashrc # or source ~/.zshrc Check if it worked: echo $PATH npm -v --- Step 4: Test installing a global package npm install -g nodemon nodemon -v Should install without sudo. Should be executable immediately from any terminal session. --- ✅ Bonus: You now have a fully user-level npm setup. No sudo needed, no permissions errors, and lifecycle scripts run in the foreground.
