npm unable to install karma-jasmine on my mac

Question

When i install karma-jasmine on mac,it gives me errors: ├── UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY jasmine-core@* └── karma-jasmine@0.3.8 npm WARN karma-jasmine@0.3.8 requires a peer of jasmine-core@* but none was installed. But,i have installed jasmine-core just before. npm install jasmine-core -g /Users/hbowang/.nvm/versions/node/v5.9.0/lib └── jasmine-core@2.4.1 Any body can help me resolve this error?

Answer 1

I also got this error, but my package.json file is also missing so by creating package json file i am able to install jasmine-core and karma-jasmine.

For creating package.json file:

$ npm init

then after install jasmine-core:

 $ npm install jasmine-core
 $ npm install karma --save-dev
 $ npm install karma-jasmine --save-dev

Hope it will help!!

Answer 2

you are installing jasmine-core with the global flag. try installing it without the -g option and then retry.

notice the words UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY which suggests it wants it installed at the same level not globally maybe?
