Pm2 deploy Permission Denied for everythings

I am trying to deploy an app on my server with pm2. When i try to deploy it i have a some permissions issues.

For exemple i can not install something with npm globaly, i can not run an apt-get install, and it can't even run the "path" which should create the 'workdir' of the project...

Here is my config with blank infos :

{
  "apps": [
    {
      "name": "app",
      "script": "scripts/start.js"
    }
  ],
  "deploy": {
    "production": {
      "user": "namedUser",
      "host": ["**.**.**.**"],
      "ref": "origin/master",
      "repo": "[email protected]:***",
      "path": "/var/www/production",
      "pre-setup": "sudo apt-get install git nodejs npm; npm i -g yarn; yarn",
      "post-setup": "ls -la",
      "post-deploy": "yarn start"
    }
  }
}

But pm2 can't execute any of thes.

When i try to install something in the "pre-setup" i get this error from npm (event with a sudo) :

checkPermissions Missing write access to /usr/local/lib/node_modules
npm ERR! Linux 4.15.0-22-generic
npm ERR! argv "/usr/bin/node" "/usr/bin/npm" "i" "-g" "yarn"

npm ERR!   path: '/usr/local/lib/node_modules/yarn' }
npm ERR! 
npm ERR! Please try running this command again as root/Administrator.

And when i remove everythings i want to install except the "path" i get this :

mkdir: cannot create directory '/var/www': Permission denied

You need to add you user to the sudo group to make it able to use "sudo". 

# usermod -aG sudo username

You need to make the user the owner or in the owner group of "/var/www". 

# chown username /var/www/

and you need to fix npm permissions to be able to install packages globally.
