Install npm without sudo

I have to install npm on a computer that doesn't have root privileges, I will have a number of errors due to missing dependencies. I attach the screen. Any idea? Thanks.

Fancy Install (Unix)

There's a pretty robust install script at https://www.npmjs.com/install.sh. You can download that and run it.

Here's an example using curl:

curl -L https://npmjs.com/install.sh | sh

From isaacs, one of the contributors of node.js: 

   echo 'export PATH=$HOME/local/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc
    . ~/.bashrc
    mkdir ~/local
    mkdir ~/node-latest-install
    cd ~/node-latest-install
    curl http://nodejs.org/dist/node-latest.tar.gz | tar xz --strip-components=1
    ./configure --prefix=~/local
    make install
    curl https://www.npmjs.org/install.sh | sh
