Node.js® is a platform built on Chrome's JavaScript runtime for easily building fast, scalable network applications. Node.js uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient, perfect for data-intensive real-time applications that run across distributed devices.

SME 9

Install

On SME 9, you can install a reasonably recent version of NodeJS from the EPEL repository:

  • Add the epel repository to the configuration db using the SME 9 instructions from Epel
  • Update the yum configuration file using
expand-template /etc/yum.smerepos.d/sme-base.repo
  • Install NodeJS
yum --enablerepo=epel install nodejs

This will install nodejs plus c-ares19, http-parser, libuv and v8 from the epel repo, plus libicu from the base repo.

Update

  • Update using
yum --enablerepo=epel update nodejs c-ares19 http-parser libuv v8
  • NodeJS updates are released every 3 - 12 weeks; check for updates regularly.

SME 8
