I'm following this guide, and I'm at the section were I need to run this code:
$ nodemon server
But I get this error:
nodemon : The term 'nodemon' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function,
script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was
included, verify that the path is correct and try again. At line:1 char:1 + nodemon server + ~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (nodemon:String) [], CommandNotFoundExce
ption + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException
I changed some settings in the package.json and installed npm globally but I'll try those again if needed.
Here is my server.js file:
const express = require('express');
const cors = require('cors');
require('dotenv').config();
const app = express();
const port = process.env.PORT || 5000;
app.use(cors());
app.use(express.json());
app.listen(port, () => {
console.log(`Server is running on port: ${port}`);
});
I've installed nodemon fine previous to the error, I get this output when i installed nodemon.
