init, nodemon, and package.json - Part 2
- package.JSON is not used by node itself, rather it's by npm
Development dependencies
npm install jasmine-node --save-dev
You will use this at all your projects
npm install -g nodemon
download nodemon globally to your computer so you get access from anywhere in your app
Note: notemon itself has its own node_modules folder, it need other dependency to run too.
run
npm update
will update your dependencies
What about nodemon
- after you install nodemon globally, you can access it anywhere from the command line
run nodemon app.js
- if you see a module with
cli
folder in it, it's maybe because it's utility is accessed via command line
