node.js - npm install cube Error: No dist in websocket-server package

Question

Ubuntu 14.04 新安装的 nodejs npm mongodb, 因为安装一个第三方的程序需要安装 cube。
使用 npm install cube 安装报错：

npm ERR! Error: No dist in websocket-server package

尝试了 sudo 权限也没有效果，报相同的错。

看起来：

https://registry.npmjs.org/websocket-server/1.4.4

在下载 websocket-server 1.4.4 dist 的时候返回 404 了，打开看源信息，没有 dist 的信息，看来是源出问题了。。。

Answer 1

Found the reason.

The official source of websocket-server is no longer available. . . I wipe

This is the websocket-server that cube depends on. I am now wondering if I can use other libraries to replace it. .
https://www.npmjs.com/package/websocket-server

I found that the developer website has been shut down, maybe it was attacked. . .

I found the solution, I forgot to check the issue list of the third-party software I want to install :)

The solution is as follows:

cd node_modules/
git clone https://github.com/miksago/node-websocket-server
mv node-websocket-server websocket-server
cd..
npm install cube

In fact, it is replaced by another library.
