Update node version in development environment

help
1

Hi all,

How do I update the version of node? I hear that 0.12.x should be ok now due to fibers supporting the higher version and a lot of npm packages I want to use require 0.12.x.

So, in my console / terminal, how do I update node for the meteor app only? It’s Meteor 1.3 which is currently using 0.10.43.

Thanks,

Tom.

You can’t. At least, you can, but it’s not safe… Meteor relies on the 0.10.x API, and parts of it might not work properly on higher versions. However, MDG have stated that upgrading to Node 4 is a priority now that Meteor 1.3.0 is out; expecting this in the next few releases.
