Node already has a node js package for OS X.

Goto http://nodejs.org and press install to download the nodejs package, when installed npm should be installed with it.

The message says that you have not installed the node package manager npm.

Before installing npm, make sure you have noted down the path to node. It is most probably in /usr/local/lib/node.

Then do,

git clone http://github.com/isaacs/npm.git
cd npm
sudo make install

Now add the path to node, by adding the following in .bashrc

export NODE_PATH = "/path/to/node"

You will also need the npm executable, so add the path to npm bin,

export PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/share/npm/bin:$PATH"

Then save and exit .bashrc and do

source ~/.bashrc

This evaluates the edits and the changes reflect in the shell. Now you can go ahead with sudo npm install -g meteorite
