What happens if you manually run npm update -g?

bingalls · 2020-10-25T19:43:49Z

As of the recent release of Node v15 & Npm v7, npm update no longer accepts the -g global flag.

r-darwish · 2020-10-26T06:59:50Z

So what should be done instead?

bingalls · 2020-10-26T07:27:34Z

If npm version >= 7, call `npm up` without the `-g` flag

r-darwish · 2020-10-26T09:59:45Z

Can you guys just run npm up and see if it does what it should? If so, I'll make a patch that skips -g with NPM >7

joschi · 2020-10-26T10:45:22Z

@r-darwish There still seem to be some issues regarding npm 7's new update behavior.

At least on my system (macOS, npm 7.0.3), npm up does not update globally installed packages.

npm/cli#1962
npm/cli#2002

r-darwish · 2020-10-26T11:24:06Z

I don't feel like watching NPM tickets so whenever a solution comes out I'll be happy if someone writes it here.

Nice tip. Thanks

bingalls · 2020-11-05T20:48:02Z

Solution: mitigate this on Mac OSX, until Node fixes v15, with the following

brew install nvm
nvm install 14.15.0
nvm alias default stable
nvm use default

To restore topgrade to the latest node version, once it is fixed, run nvm use system
NVM Node Version Manager has competing Homebrew packages, but I am not familiar with their syntax.

REBELinBLUE · 2020-11-07T12:04:15Z

Um that isn't really fixing it though that is just changing your system wide version of node to 14.15, surely a better option would just be to add disable = ["node"] to topgrade.toml for now

ghost · 2020-11-08T20:37:45Z

I suggest deprecating node/npm. Also acceptable to me would be to keep the current behavior but guard it with an npm -v check. If the npm version is < 7, run npm update -g; otherwise, do nothing with node/npm.

narfk · 2020-11-11T13:09:33Z

The new version solves the problem
npm -g install npm@7.0.10

r-darwish · 2020-11-11T13:32:34Z

So this issue can be closed?

narfk · 2020-11-11T13:34:48Z

maybe someone else could confirm that?
otherwise, yes

jrgarcia · 2020-11-11T16:49:15Z

@narfk @r-darwish Upgrading to npm 7.0.10 worked for me as well!

ZepDonald · 2020-11-11T17:13:25Z

I upgraded node from 15.1.0 to 15.2.0 and it's working for me now.

joschi · 2020-11-12T07:17:03Z

I can confirm that it's working with the latest version of npm.
