Node-sass: Can't install node-sass anymore

[michelecocuccio]

Hello. For some reason I can't install node-sass anymore. I have already installed node-sass on this computer and on different projects (macOS High Sierra - v 10.13.4) and up until last week everything was working fine. I started a new project recently and I am getting an error now.

I am on the last version of Node and npm and I am trying to install node-sass: 4.9.0. I have tried running the command as Sudo but no luck. Here is the error and the information requested (I have also attached the error log file).

npm: v6.1.0

node: v8.11.2

node process: { http_parser: '2.8.0',
node: '8.11.2',
v8: '6.2.414.54',
uv: '1.19.1',
zlib: '1.2.11',
ares: '1.10.1-DEV',
modules: '57',
nghttp2: '1.29.0',
napi: '3',
openssl: '1.0.2o',
icu: '60.1',
unicode: '10.0',
cldr: '32.0',
tz: '2017c' }

node platform: darwin

node architecture: x64

node sass version: 4.9.0

You should not use side with npm. If you must then you'll need to use the
--unsafe-perms flag

Thanks for the reply. Can you please be more specific? What do you mean by "I shouldn't use "side" with NPM? "

Thanks

[xzyfer]

Sorry I mean you should never use sudo with npm because you'll have
permission errors.

Fixed this issue by using yarn instead.

[guilhermeaiolfi]

Same problem using --unsafe-perms. The problem is that node-sass doesn't exist, so it can't create one inside it.
