Go to directory of your project
mkdir TestProject
cd TestProject
Make this directory a root of your project (this will create a default package.json
file)
npm init --yes
Install required npm module and save it as a project dependency (it will appear in package.json
)
npm install request --save
Create a test.js
file in project directory with code from package example
var request = require('request');
request('http://www.google.com', function (error, response, body) {
if (!error && response.statusCode == 200) {
console.log(body); // Print the google web page.
}
});
Your project directory should look like this
TestProject/
- node_modules/
- package.json
- test.js
Now just run node inside your project directory
node test.js
