https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/pull/1250 should fix this issue.

Meanwhile you can run npm install manually by using the --skip-npm flag:

ng new project --skip-npm
cd project
npm install

Hello,
I just experienced a similar situation.

ng-new was hanging and I ran your --skip-npm method. And it works. I just wanted to let you know because it's suppose to be fixed according to my understanding.

angular-cli: 1.0.0-beta.10
node: 4.4.3
os: win32 x64

npm -v
2.15.1

node -v
v4.4.3

[filipesilva]

@kamok in your case, you might have a problem because you're version of node/npm are somewhat old. We only test on node 5/6, which use npm 3.

[toneware]

@filipesilva FWIW, it's still an issue.

I'm on Win 10 with a new install of node and angular-cli.

As with @kamok, the --skip-npm workaround does work for me. It's very, very slow (on the order of about half an hour), but it did eventually install.

I ran the Google/M-Lab internet speed test:
47.3 Mbps download
46.0 Mbps upload
Latency: 25 ms
Server: New York, NY
Your Internet speed is fast

Your Internet connection should be able to handle multiple devices streaming HD videos at the same time.

ng -v
As a forewarning, we are moving the CLI npm package to "@angular/cli" with the next release,
which will only support Node 6.9 and greater. This package will be officially deprecated
shortly after.

To disable this warning use "ng set --global warnings.packageDeprecation=false".

@toneware are you saying that when you do these commands it's fast?

ng new project --skip-npm
cd project
npm install

And when you just do ng new project it's slow?

[toneware]

When I do ng new project, it never finishes.

When I use the --skip-npm approach, is very slow.

If even skipping npm and installing it manually takes a long time, then it sounds like there's a problem in your system/connectivity to npm.

I'd also like to mention that in newer releases its not --skip-npm anymore, but rather --skip-install.

[toneware]

Ok. Good to know. I was just following the suggestions in the thread. FWIW, --skip-npm does work, but I'll try --skip-install when I am home.

I posted my versions, along with my Internet connection speeds. Should I be pointing at a different npm url or something? Everything I used was whatever was installed/configured by default.

I don't think you should need to do that, no... but if npm is giving you problems, you might also try yarn (https://yarnpkg.com/en/).

[toneware]

I didn't see any real difference between --skip-install and --skip-npm.

How can I use yam from the ng cli?

[filipesilva]

If you do ng new --skip-install (but make sure you're using a recent like 1.0.0-rc.1), the CLI will not install packages for you. Then you can install them manually.

ng new project-name --skip-install
cd project name
yarn install

I can't help you much with the instalation and usage details of yarn itself, for that you should look at their website: https://yarnpkg.com/en/

[kwibus2000]

Yes! I have tried every trick I could find, but now, finally, this works for me.
Although yarn install still took over 500 seconds! Must be my connection; certainly not 'high-speed'.
