Detect npm >=3.9.2 and adjust the install command accordingly #59

Closed misterbyrne closed 6 years ago

misterbyrne commented 8 years ago

With later versions of npm, it's no longer necessary to rm -rf node_modules before npm install when sub-dependency versions are not correct.

npm v3.9.1 fixed the issue, but also exposed a different bug which was fixed in npm v3.9.2

@misterbyrne do we trust NPM working correctly in this place? I've seen some issues re: non-deterministic installations, and partial installs/updates.

Since we are dropping support for node v4.x, does that mean we're also dropping support for npm 3.x? Perhaps this PR should be closed unmerged.

I've left this hanging around too long anyway, so I'm happy to close.
