Re: [IBMiOSS] Installing Node vx with yum

@Brad the yum verb (which I didn't know, being more used to apt on Ubuntu
... sheesh, the branching out of Linux distros!) is provides, e.g.

bash-4.4$ yum provides "*node"

Opinion: Everyone should start adopting chroot on IBM i to keep your
apps,
including versions of Node.js, separate.

cd /QOpenSys
wget --no-check-certificate
https://bitbucket.org/litmis/ibmichroot/get/master.zip
unzip master.zip
mv litmis-ibmichroot-65e027091b7e ibmichroot
cd /QOpenSys/ibmichroot/chroot
export CHROOT_DIR=/QOpenSys/containers/c1
chroot_setup.sh chroot_minimal.lst $CHROOT_DIR
chroot_setup.sh chroot_nls.lst $CHROOT_DIR
yum --installroot=$CHROOT_DIR install nodejs

The above will create a new chroot container and install the nodejs rpm
into it. Then you you can enter the chroot container as follows:

chroot $CHROOT_DIR /usr/bin/bash

Now you are operating ~only~ on that single version of Node.js.

Hope that makes sense.

can
change
my path to use the new version, but I'm sort of
lost
as
to
where
the
db2/etc functions are then.

Are they a different distribution to be installed
with
yum?
Do
we
use
the
old functions from v6?

Also, if we want to keep node versions separate, is
that
possible
with
yum? I didn't see any way to specify "install it
here".
So
when
node9
comes out if I want to keep node8 there until I've
tested
node9,
how
would
that be done?

Thanks!
