Totally new to node.js/npm, trying to get a couple new front-end tools under my belt. I'm on a windows box. I can do:
D:\Users\saturdayplace\Documents\www\accntr>node -v
v4.1.2
D:\Users\saturdayplace\Documents\www\accntr>which node
C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.EXE
D:\Users\saturdayplace\Documents\www\accntr>echo %path%
< a bunch of stuff that includes C:\Program Files\nodejs\ >
And there's a node.exe in that folder. So, I'm fairly certain that my case is different from the typical, "Is it on your path?" or "Is node actually installed?" situations. I've npm install
d a bunch of other things (including stuff that needs a C (or whatever) compiler), but for some reason, sass-gulp just don't wanna play nice. Here's what it does:
D:\Users\saturdayplace\Documents\www\accntr>npm install gulp-sass --save-dev
npm WARN install Couldn't install optional dependency: Unsupported
npm WARN prefer global node-gyp@3.0.3 should be installed with -g
> node-sass@3.3.3 install D:\Users\saturdayplace\Documents\www\accntr\node_modules\node-sass
> node scripts/install.js
'node' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
