Node.JS cannot find module 'xml2js' (Windows)

node.js, xml-parsing

Solution

Make sure that the directory `./node_modules/xml2js` exists.

When you run `npm install somemodule` at `D:/test`, it will be stored to `D:/test/node_modules/somemodule`, then you can require this module in `D:/test/*.js`, and you can not require it at `D:/other/place/*.js`. If you hope the module can be required anywhere you should run:

npm install somemodule -g

Problem

OS: Windows 7 64-bit Need to do parsing xml-file using Node.js. Using a library for parsing xml2js. Xml2js installed using the command "npm install xml2js". However, if you run the code: ``` var fs = require ('fs'), xml2js = require ('xml2js'); var parser = new xml2js.Parser (); fs.readFile ('<path to the xml-file>', function (err, data) { parser.parseString (data, function (err, result) { console.dir (result); console.log ('Done'); }); }); ``` an error: ``` module.js:340 throw err; ^ Error: Cannot find module 'xml2js' at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:338:15) at Function.Module._load (module.js:280:25) at Module.require (module.js:364:17) at require (module.js:380:17) at Object.<anonymous> (<путь до js-файла>:3:14) at Module._compile (module.js:456:26) at Object.Module._extensions..js (module.js:474:10) at Module.load (module.js:356:32) at Function.Module._load (module.js:312:12) at Function.Module.runMain (module.js:497:10) ``` Tell me, please, how to solve the problem?
