NodeJS + NPM

Already have NPM and NodeJS? Feel free to skip this section!

The most robust way to use NodeJS is through nvm, which stands for Node Version Manager. Sometimes, NodeJS versions move ahead of what's supported in remote hosting environments. NVM makes choosing a version of node per-project easy, so we're going to use NVM to install NodeJS and pick the right version. For us, we'll use node version 10.10. The .nvmrc file already has this recorded.

curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.35.0/install.sh | bash

Once NVM is installed, confirm that you have a .nvmrc file in the project's root directory, and that it says v10.10 (if not, please add that to the file!).

Now, let's use nvm to install node v10.10:

nvm use && nvm install

You can read more about NVM here.

AWS CLI

NB: AWS CLI installation is optional for this workshop, but you'll need it when you're ready to deploy your node application.

If you do not have the python package manager, pip, you can install with the following bash:

curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py

Then, in the directory you installed pip in,

python get-pip.py

Finally, use pip to install the AWS CLI:

pip install awscli

ASK CLI

Although this project is all about Jovo, the ASK CLI is sometimes used under-the-hood, so we want to have this handy for those cases.

npm install -g ask-cli

That's it!

More info on the ASK CLI is available here.

Jovo CLI

The Jovo CLI is used to manage & deploy project files and code. This npm package is required for the workshop.

npm install -g jovo-cli
