I´m starting studying nodejs to a project, and looking for projects to help me, I found out this one:
It´s very interesting implementation on Collaborative Rich-Text editor, but, as I´m sayd, I´m starting on it, and I could not run the example from project.
Can anybody explain me how to do this?
I´m already tried to run the file on node folder
node app.js
It failed with:
module.js:338
throw err;
^
Error: Cannot find module 'socket.io'

Should the project have a package.json with dependencies descriptions?
Thanks for the help!
The error message is very clear: you don't have the module socket.io. Run
npm install socket.io
to grab it.If the project has a
package.json
file (the example you provided doesn't have one, bad practice), then before start, you should runnpm install
to grab all dependencies.
