Install build tools<\/h3>\n

Several tools will be needed. Run the following command:<\/p>\n

apt-get install make g++ libssl-dev git\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
Download Node.js source<\/h3>\n
It is recommended to download the source from the node.js website. The git repository source may not be stable, considering it receives changes after the latest mainstream version. To download from the website, run these commands:<\/p>\n
cd \/tmp\r\nwget http:\/\/nodejs.org\/dist\/v0.10.32\/node-v0.10.32.tar.gz\r\ntar -xvf node-v0.10.32.tar.gz\r\ncd node-v0.10.32\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
If you really must use the unstable mainstream version, run the following command:<\/p>\n
git clone https:\/\/github.com\/joyent\/node\r\ncd node\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
Upon success, you can proceed to the next step.<\/p>\n
Configure and Build<\/h3>\n
Depending on your server, you may want to replace\u00a0X<\/code>\u00a0with the number of CPUs of your server. If your VPS has\u00a02<\/code>\u00a0virtual CPUs, you would replace\u00a0X<\/code>\u00a0with\u00a02<\/code>. This will help speed up the building process.<\/p>\n
.\/configure\r\nmake -jX\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
If everything was successful, you can now run the following command to install node js onto your system:<\/p>\n
make install\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
Once it is installed, run\u00a0node -v<\/code>\u00a0and check the version output. If a version is displayed similar to\u00a0v0.10.32<\/code>\u00a0(version will vary), then you then have successfully installed node.js.
