I'm trying to install NodeMon for my Node js project. I have tried installing via npm.

npm install nodemon

Provided following result

  npm WARN saveError ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/Users/nodejs/package.json'

npm WARN enoent ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/Users//nodejs/package.json'

npm WARN nodejs No repository field.
npm WARN nodejs No README data
npm WARN nodejs No license field.

when i have tried running nodemon , It is throwing command not found: nodemon) Let me know how i can fix this.

Answer 1

I tried the following once i got into this issue and it did not work for me as well:

npm uninstall nodemon

sudo npm uninstall -g nodemon

then i tried this and it worked

sudo npm install -g --force nodemon

Answer 2

I have fixed this by following below steps

Step 1 npm initialisation in the same folder

npm init 

npm requests projectName , author , description , entry point

once provided , a package.json file will be added to your project folder.

Step 2

try npm install nodemon 

It's Successful.

If still failing after following above steps , try with latest stable version of node and repeat the above process.
