Node is unable to find 'robot.js' module

[ghost]

I am trying to use robot.js module on node, however it returns an error on line command which says the module cannot be found. I have tried massive troubleshooting steps, including add aditional modules which could be missing, and frameworks on my system. I already have:

Python v. 2.7.12 node v.6.7.0 Windows Software Development Kit v. 8.1 Visual Studio 2015 Community (should works fine)

The error log says:

C...\node index

module.js:457 throw err; ^

Error: Cannot find module 'robotjs'

I instaled the module already. Any help, please?

Try npm install robotjs

@jonatasbvt did running the command @Untitled-Mines mentioned worked for you?

if not then robotjs is probably not installed on your system you can check with the following command: npm list robotjs

I was unable to install robotjs. The following package helped me install the missing tools on my computer (looks like you are using windows) which in turn helped with installing robotjs: https://www.npmjs.com/package/windows-build-tools

npm install --global --production windows-build-tools
