This has been months worth of troubleshooting. I cannot npm install bcrypt no matter what I try.
I've tried sudo npm install bcrypt, brew install bcrypt, uninstalling node and reinstalling node, copying bcrypt files and editing my json files... Nothing works. Tested with alternatives to bcrypt, such as bcryptjs. This is only a problem with bcrypt packages, and I have tried dozens of suggestions and solutions I've found online to no avail.
Brew tells my bcrypt is installed, so I uninstall it through brew and it says it is still installed. I've done npm uninstall bcrypt -g just in case, but it still doesn't work. It says I don't have access to my node_modules folder, but, again, this only happens with bcrypt and literally nothing else. Express, postgresql, cors, body-parser, react, redux, thunk... Everything else installs and works without any issue.

I just want to figure out what is wrong and be able to regularly use bcrypt and other encryption-based packages.
https://lightrains.com/blogs/fixing-npm-permissions-install-global
This link is how I fixed my issue. First, I used npm config get prefix to find my npm directory and cd ~ to get to my root directory. I then ran ls -a and found a node_modules folder in my root. By using ls -la node_modules, I found root was given all permissions by I had no rights. sudo chown -R someUser node_modules changed all permissions inside of node_modules to someUser instead of root.
Tested npm install bcrypt and it installs without issue.

Don't use sudo for this problem. Use sudo the way it is intended to be used in Ubuntu: for each command that requires it, no more. Don't use sudo to run a command unless it needs to be root. For example, most users would only need sudo for installing things.
Have you try, manually change npm's default directory?
mkdir ~/.npm-global
npm config set prefix '~/.npm-global'
export PATH=~/.npm-global/bin:$PATH
source ~/.profile
To test your new configuration, install a package globally without using sudo:
npm install -g #angular/cli
I'm trying to use npm install to install a package but I keep getting below error.
I tried updating and downloading again from root but nothing seems to work.

If there is a permission error on Linux for npm install, you can try to include sudo at the beginning of command. sudo npm install. Also make sure node.js is installed globally on your machine. Also make sure you have a package.json folder.
It's simply complaining about the fact that you don't own the folders /home/salman/node_modules/axios, /home/salman/node_modules/file-saver etc. Since it is your home directory, there really shouldn't be any directory or files that you don't own in /home/salman. My guess is that this happened because you ran npm with sudo causing it to create some files in your home folder that is owned by root instead of salman.
To fix the permission issue simply retake ownership of the node_modules folder:
cd /home/salman
sudo chown -R salman:salman node_modules
The -R flag makes chown recursively set you as the owner to all files and subfolders in the directory.
Side note: you really shouldn't use your home directory as your npm project directory. Do npm install in individual project directories. Yes, this wastes disk space but disk space is cheap and can freely be wasted. Even if you have 10 node.js projects you are unlikely to use more than 5GB of disk space even though there are lots of duplicate code files. A single HD movie is sometimes larger than that. Typical disk space usage for code is around 2GB.
sudo chown -R $USER /home/salman/node_modules
This command is useful.. Run it on your system..
for some reason ive been ending up with "command not found" when i type in the create-react-app newproject command. Its been giving me this error:

any help is appreciated! Thanks!
As the error clearly shows you dont have write access to /Users/kennyquach/.npm-global/lib/node_modules/create-react-app
try changing access to 777 for all of .npm-global folders and then give a try.
You are high likely using Mac OS as Operating System. This is a general issue of globally installed packages in MacOS that caused by built-in node application's file permissions. Actually you can get over this by executing create-react-app as root, but i don't recommend that, it's not useful and it's risky.
So you got 2 options. (First one is hard to do, second is blazing fast)
1-) Completely remove Node from your System and install it with Brew. You can easily update node with that package manager and install any other popular developer tools too (Like: mongodb, mysql, pgsql, rabbitmq etc.).
You can get brew from here: https://brew.sh and install node with that code: brew install node
2-) You can easily give read, write, execute access to your folders and files. You can do it like this: sudo chmod -R 777 /Users/kennyquach/.npm-global/ when sudo asks your password, use your Administrator password.
This looks like an access issue. I faced same issue in MAC OS X, when I tried running the command with sudo, it worked for me.
sudo npm install -g create-react-app

Leaving me a bit puzzled and confused here, but any help/response would be appreciated.
I had this problem too and it was a little bit tricky to find a solution so I'll describe all the steps that helped me find a solution.
It's resolving a general problem with the wrong path for global packages in npm or missing path in shell variable $PATH.
Fix for macOS Mojave but should work on all UNIX systems
First of all, after installing the package globally npm will show you where a new package is installed.
$ npm i -g #vue/cli
/usr/local/Cellar/node/9.5.0/bin/vue -> /usr/local/Cellar/node/9.5.0/lib/node_modules/#vue/cli/bin/vue.js
We can also check it in the npm config.
$ npm config get prefix
/usr/local/Cellar/node/9.5.0
So if after the global installation your terminal couldn't recognize the command it's probably missing in your shell variable $PATH. You can easily check it.
$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
As we can see, the path from npm config isn't present in the shell variable $PATH.
Now we have two options to fix it.
1. First option - change npm config.
$ npm config set prefix '/usr/local'
$ npm config get prefix
/usr/local
After we changed the path in the config we will have to reinstall the desired package.
$ npm i -g #vue/cli
2. Second option - add path from npm config to shell $PATH
$ export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/Cellar/node/9.5.0
In this case, we don't need to install the package again.
Regardless of the selected option, we can now control if everything works.
$ vue --version
3.0.5
Maybe it is something wrong with npm
I recommend you,first list all global npm packages to see if vue is installed with the command: npm list -g --depth=0
Then if vue is installed but again you get error try to delete vue with the command: npm uninstall -g nameOfPackage
Finally do it again from scratch: npm install -g #vue/cli and to create new project,navigate to directory you want to create the project and execute: vue create nameOfProject
What are you trying to do?
npm install -g #vue/cli
This is the command you should run on terminal to globally (-g) install vue command line interface.
After that you can do vue create vue-project

May be happening I use a proxy I set it up this way to allow downloads from ips outside my network
export https_proxy='http://172.21.0.12:3128'
I hope you can help me
Set proxy from commandline.
npm config set proxy http://proxydomain:port/
If error occur yet, additional try next.
npm config set registry http://registry.npmjs.org/
These work for me.
(ref http://sushichop.blogspot.jp/2013/01/npm-install.html)
Though late enough, I've bumped into this too after updating nodejs (to 4.1.1) and npm (to something like 1.4.x) on Linux.
I've tried the suggested solution, but changing the registry entry did not help in all cases.
Lastly, having decided to reinstall npm, I found this update source [on npm github][1]
curl -L https://www.npmjs.org/install.sh | sh
which updated my npm to 3.3.8 and all related package installation troubles have been blown away.
