I have been trying to use total.js with D3 to create a tree visualization. I am unable to download D3. I do :

npm install D3

I get:

npm ERR! contextify@0.1.8 install: `node-gyp rebuild`
npm ERR! Exit status 1
npm ERR! 
npm ERR! Failed at the contextify@0.1.8 install script.
npm ERR! This is most likely a problem with the contextify package,
npm ERR! not with npm itself.
npm ERR! Tell the author that this fails on your system:
npm ERR!     node-gyp rebuild
npm ERR! You can get their info via:
npm ERR!     npm owner ls contextify
npm ERR! There is likely additional logging output above.

I have tried to download contextify, but I get the same thing. I have successfully downloaded gyp, but it doesn't seem work if I try to download D3.js.

  • Probably not what is wrong but can you try `npm install d3` where the d is not uppercase? Not sure if npm is case insensitive. – aug Jun 13 '14 at 17:36

Try to download latest version of node.js (with node.js v0.12.0 everything works).

Update npm and use lowercase d3

Update npm:

npm install -g npm may require sudo

Install d3:

npm install d3

Note: this will install d3 in your current location to install globally use :

sudo npm install d3 -g
