Guide to install packages in your goinfre

We may receive an error when we try to install a package, which indicates that we do not have permission to write to the directories that npm uses to store packages and commands. We can fix this problem by Changing the npm's default directory to another. We can configure npm to use a different directory; this directory will be hidden in our goinfre.

Make a directory for installations:

mkdir ~/goinfre/.npm

Make a symbolic link to .npm directory:

ln -s ~/goinfre/.npm ~/.npm

Create ~/.npmrc file:

touch ~/.npmrc

Configure npm to use the new directory path:

npm config set prefix /Users/YOUR_LOGIN/.npm

ZSH Users

if u have ZSH u need to add path to your .zshrc open ur .zshrc file with vim :

vim .zshrc

then paste the path:

export PATH=~/goinfre/.npm/bin:$PATH

Now u can install your packages enjoy😝
