Node + npm package for linux 64bit made with the latest version by fpm.
###Current version of node: 0.10.29
Because package manager is not always up to date and we have to install node AND npm. So when we are provisioning a server and needed node, it could be a pain to just install node and npm from the command line.
Here you don't have to get worried, we have both in one package.
It's generated with fpm on a precise64 Vagrant virtual machine and the latest source code from http://nodejs.org/dist/node-latest.tar.gz.
Just run dpkg -i nodejs-0.10.29_amd64.deb and it will do the trick.
####For provisioning use
There's also a version that comes with a generic file name nodejs_amd64.deb.
So you can use the raw link in your provisioning scripts: https://github.com/ArthurMaroulier/nodejs-deb/raw/master/nodejs_amd64.deb
####Warning I've not tested it on other machine/os, so it may not work on different setup.
###Current version of node: 0.10.25
Just download the latest version of linux-arm-pi tar.gz file from nodejs.com :
wget http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.10.25/node-v0.10.25-linux-arm-pi.tar.gz
Run tar -xvzf node-v0.10.25-linux-arm-pi.tar.gz to the directory of your choice.
Set the NODE_JS_HOME variable to this directory and add the bin dir to your PATH:
NODE_JS_HOME=/path/to/node-v0.10.25-linux-arm-pi
PATH=$PATH:$NODE_JS_HOME/bin
Now you can run node and npm from anywhere.
node --version should return v0.10.25.
npm -versionshould return 1.3.24.
If you need you can install node's native build tool node-gyp :
npm install -g node-gyp
