Edit:

If the below steps do not work for you, check this answer as nodemon might not be added to the PATH after installation.

Nodemon is a Node Package that is managed by the Node Package Manager (NPM).

To install Node Packages, you need to use the following command,

npm i package-name    // This will install the package locally as a dependency
npm i -D package-name // This will install the package locally as a dev dependency
npm i -g package-name // This will install the package globally

And so, to install nodemon globally, you would do,

npm i -g nodemon      // For Windows or if you installed NodeJS using NVM on linux
sudo npm i -g nodemon // If you installed NodeJS from from apt or other linux package manager.

node install whatever is not a command and obviously won't work.

  • @Vickygrk Try this answer as I think it is an issue with nodemon not being recognized in the path, https://stackoverflow.com/a/53711051/12135751 – Anteraez Oct 18 '19 at 14:09
  • You should do `npm i nodemon --save-dev`, then to run it, `node_modules\.bin\nodemon`. Then this project will have its own special nodemon, and you won't have a version war on your machine when you have more than one codebase. You can also control the version of the nodemon this project uses, in case you need, by adding the version to the install command or editing `package,json`. – doug65536 Jun 09 '23 at 07:39
