Yo angular generate error

Question

I install nodejs and npm on ubuntu 14.04, by source code.

root@wemet:~/ang# npm version
{ http_parser: '1.0',
node: '0.10.34',
v8: '3.14.5.9',
ares: '1.9.0-DEV',
uv: '0.10.30',
zlib: '1.2.8',
modules: '11',
openssl: '1.0.1j',
npm: '1.4.28' }

I installed yo and generate-angular as global This is my full package install of local: https://gist.github.com/thinksource/ba33f0cad073f3d4dc46

When I want to do:

root@wemet:~/ang# yo angular

module.js:340
    throw err;
      ^
Error: Cannot find module '../../string/is-string'
    at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:338:15)

    at Function.Module._load (module.js:312:12)
    at Module.require (module.js:364:17)

I do not know what is the is-string module. I check it at https://www.npmjs.com/ but can not find it.

When I run the bower cache clean:

root@wemet:~/ang# npm i make-iterator --save-dev

I find the module make-iterator, but even if I install make-iterator and I still meet error when I run bower cache clean.

Answer 1

I get the problem, I need to upgrade my npm version from 1.4.28 to 2.1.2. Thank you for your attention.

Answer 2

answer of @user504909 will solve the problem But Good Solution is Upgrade Nodejs version from 0.10.34 to 0.12.0 As the result of upgrading Nodejs version, npm version will upgrade too from 1.4.28 to 2.1.2

To Upgrade Nodejs Version according to nodesource Blog :

# Note the new setup script name for Node.js v0.12
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_0.12 | sudo bash -

# Then install with:
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
