npm command not found and unable to look up myuser@github.com

[rahulserver]

Here is my main.yml

name: Node Github CI

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - master

jobs:
  deploy:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:
    - name: Node Js
      uses: actions/setup-node@v1
       
    - name: SSH and deploy node app
      uses: appleboy/ssh-action@master        
      with:
        host: ${{ secrets.SERVER_IP }}
        username: ${{ secrets.USERNAME }}
        key: ${{ secrets.SERVER_KEY }}
        script: |
          service myservice stop
          cd leancrm-backend
          git pull git://myuser@github.com/mycmp/myapp-backend.git master
          npm install
          service myservice start

It gives this error:

======CMD======
service myservice stop
cd myapp-backend
git pull git://myuser@github.com/mycmp/myapp-backend.git master
npm install
service myservice start

======END======
err: fatal: Unable to look up myuser@github.com (port 9418) (Name or service not known)
err: bash: line 3: npm: command not found
==============================================

So its not connecting to git and also not able to find npm. I am sure that these exist on the server as I use them regularly.
How do I make this work?

Hi bro, i'm having the exact same problem but with yarn, tell us if you figure out how to solve it.

It appears that the script isn't executing my .bashrc properly as that's the only way to load Node and NPM onto my $PATH. I was able to get around this by manually calling NVM in the script before doing any NPM or Node commands.

script: |
   git pull
+  export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm"
+  [ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh"
   nvm install --lts
   node -v
   npm -v

@alvinl it worked perfectly for me, thanks

npm: command not found
Reason:
I use nvm for the server node environment, and nvm will not install the node environment in the /usr/local/bin/ directory, so that sudo can't find the corresponding instructions, and finally create a soft connection to solve

sudo ln -s "$NVM_DIR/versions/node/$(nvm version)/bin/node" "/usr/local/bin/node"
sudo ln -s "$NVM_DIR/versions/node/$(nvm version)/bin/npm" "/usr/local/bin/npm"
sudo ln -s "$NVM_DIR/versions/node/$(nvm version)/bin/pm2" "/usr/local/bin/pm2"

you can test "sudo npm -v"
