Installing node with homebrew problems mac OS
after installing homebrew,
after running brew install node
brew install node
I test with:
node --version
I get:
command not found
If I rerun the install command:
I get:
MacBook-Pro:~ evanloiterman$ brew install node Warning: node 10.9.0 is
already installed, it's just not linked You can use brew link node
to link this version. MacBook-Pro:~ evanloiterman$ brew link node
Linking /usr/local/Cellar/node/10.9.0... Error: Could not symlink
include/node/common.gypi Target /usr/local/include/node/common.gypi
already exists. You may want to remove it: rm
'/usr/local/include/node/common.gypi'
brew link node
I try brew link node
brew link node
I get:
Error: Could not symlink include/node/common.gypi Target
/usr/local/include/node/common.gypi already exists. You may want to
remove it: rm '/usr/local/include/node/common.gypi'
To force the link and overwrite all conflicting files: brew link
--overwrite node
To list all files that would be deleted: brew link --overwrite
--dry-run node
What should I try next to ensure this is working?

You should install NVM (Node Version Manager). With this tool you can choose which node to use and install.
