Installing ionic on Linux ERR!s

I want to install Ionic on xUbuntu.

When I execute sudo npm install -g ionic, I get the following output but have no idea what the issue is.

npm WARN package.json [email protected] No repository field.
npm WARN package.json [email protected] 'repositories' (plural) Not supported.
npm WARN package.json Please pick one as the 'repository' field
npm WARN package.json [email protected] No repository field.
/usr/local/bin/ionic -> /usr/local/lib/node_modules/ionic/bin/ionic

> [email protected] install /usr/local/lib/node_modules/ionic/node_modules/node-sass
> node scripts/install.js

sh: 1: node: not found
npm WARN This failure might be due to the use of legacy binary "node"
npm WARN For further explanations, please read

sh: 1: node: not found

This seems to be the cause of the error.

You probably just need to install the legacy nodejs package:

sudo apt-get install nodejs-legacy

for more info see Cannot install packages using node package manager in Ubuntu

Another alternative is to use nvm https://github.com/creationix/nvm#installation , which lets you switch between different versions of node

nvm install node --reinstall-packages-from=node
nvm alias default node
