Unable to `npm install`

[breadplop]

I've tried: npm install mapshaper npm install -g mapshaper

I've also tried download the repo and doing a npm install I've also tried the commands with sudo

I've attached the logs (see below). I'm getting EISDIR errors, which seems to suggest that it's trying to open a file but it's a directory. Does anyone have any resolutions to this issue?

Hi, just saw this issue. Have you been able to resolve the problem? It seems like it might be an issue with your node/npm install, rather than a mapshaper-specific problem. A Google search turned up a few other people with EISDIR errors running v6.9.0 of npm. Several reported that updating Node (with a different version of npm) solved the problem. Have you tried re-installing or updating Node?
