nodejs 14.15.1

Can you add nodejs v14.15.1 (or a way to update to the latest stable (--lts) to the MX Test Repo, please?
None of the methods described in the Forum, nor elsewhere (using nvm, curl, homebrew, etc) work.
Thanks!

I'll take a look at the 14.13 in Debian Experimental, though I haven't had much luck with nodejs backports in the past.

After some effort, including new build-depends that are only provided by another package and don't appear in Debian package searches, 14.13.0 built and apparently passed all its self tests. I threw a buster-backports package into the extra repo to test the build, since backporting that one opens up another tree of necessary backports, but it's just a build depends and not a runtime. I'll add the MX backports when of that deb when I get some more time.

Thanks!
I updated the Repository and cannot find nodejs 14.13.0 anywhere.
Am I misunderstanding and looking in the wrong place for this, please?
I'm on a fresh install of 19.3 on an otherwise unused pc.
Thanks again ...

Uploaded 14.13.1, asked Tim to put it in our experimental repo for now. Experimental uses the same key as the standard MX repos, but I think its address is:
http://mxrepo.com/mx/experimental/ buster test \
Let me know if you still need to install something from buster-backports to install our version.

Hello. I couldn't find the newer package in MX Package Manager. The nodejs's site indicates that version 14.15.4 is the LTS now.
Thanks

it won't show up in the package manager, Stevo stated its in experimental repo, you can add that repo (NOT RECOMMENDED) or get the .deb directly from here
http://mxrepo.com/mx/experimental/pool/test/n/nodejs/
As Stevo also said, it may require dependencies from Buster Backports, use MX Package Installer to install those if you run into anything

Hello!
Sorry for my mistake and thanks for the explanation. I was able to install it by downloading the files from the Stevo link and it worked as far as I could see. The problem is that I can't use npm with this new version. In fact, in the previous version, npm warns that it does not support the installed nodejs and I don't know how to fix it.
Thanks for the good work.

Need to know the specifics on npm please?
What version, Where you are installing it from, that sort of stuff.
Was it working or not working with the default nodejs and npm?

Hello SwampRabbit!
I've installed all the packages through apt or mx-packageinstaller. The current npm version is 5.8.0 and nodejs is 10.23.1. It is working so far, but npm warns the support drop. Watching some videos on ReactJS, they recommend at least version 12 on nodejs. So I'll use a VM for my studies until I get the updated package.
Here is the npm warnings:
Code: Select all
npm WARN npm npm does not support Node.js v10.23.1
npm WARN npm You should probably upgrade to a newer version of node as we
npm WARN npm can't make any promises that npm will work with this version.
npm WARN npm Supported releases of Node.js are the latest release of 4, 6, 7, 8, 9.
npm WARN npm You can find the latest version at https://nodejs.org/
Thanks for your attention.

I noticed Debian updated nodejs to 10.24 today for Buster, if that makes any difference.

Hello Stevo!
Thanks for your attention.
Can you explain why is so outdated? Is there some security issue?

Searching some more I found
these instructions that explicitly support the current and LTS versions for MX.
