decide which version of node you want at. clone the git repo into a directory called node (which you can remove later):. check git is installed git -version or install it via:. The procedure that worked for me (following these rather old instructions with a few updates): Most of the epel packages are maintained by Fedora repo. Epel project is not a part of RHEL/Cent OS but it is designed for major Linux distributions by providing lots of open source packages like networking, sys admin, programming, monitoring and so on. The option -enablerepo=epel causes yum to search for the packages in the EPEL repository.ĮPEL (Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux) is open source and free community based repository project from Fedora team which provides 100% high quality add-on software packages for Linux distribution including RHEL (Red Hat Enterprise Linux), CentOS, and Scientific Linux. The newer packages put the node binaries in /usr/bin, instead of /usr/local/bin. Sudo yum install nodejs -enablerepo=epel-testing This answer ( ) gives a true one-liner.ĮDIT 1: If you're looking for nodejs 4, please try the EPEL testing repo: sudo yum install nodejs -enablerepo=epel-testingĮDIT 2: To upgrade from nodejs 0.12 installed through the EPEL repo using the command above, to nodejs 4 from the EPEL testing repo, please follow these steps: sudo yum rm nodejs 
Putting here for posterity: sudo yum install nodejs npm -enablerepo=epelĮDIT 3: As of July 2016, EDIT 1 no longer works for nodejs 4 (and EDIT 2 neither). Stumbled onto this, was strangely hard to find again later.
