the problem I am facing is I installed Node.js and Github and Git also on windows 7x64 home edition
When i try to install other packages from npm such as grunt and adapt, not able to install adapt-cli
showing some error in unicode and bufferstool
before installing these should I install python also on my system ?
or am I missing some steps for installation
Please help me out
thanks and regards

Hello Deepak,
Currently the command line tools use a URL transliteration library that runs a python rebuild on install. This can cause errors to be shown in the install log but will not affect the running of the tools.
It should still install the command tools successfully.
You can test this by running adapt --version the response should be the installed version (currently 0.0.18)
At some point it is likely that the library will get changed for another compatible library.

following error is coming

I'd recommend removing the adapt tools completely and re-installing again. Checking that you have sufficient permissions.
npm uninstall adapt-cli -g
npm install adapt-cli -g
Apologies Chris for bothering you but this time new error

Bit late for the original thread, but onlookers might try adding the file location to the globally installed adapt-cli to your Windows environment variable PATH.
For example, for me: ;C:\Users\Dave W\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\adapt-cli\bin
I added that after what was already listed in my environment variable PATH.

You may also need to close the command line after making the addition to your PATH, then re-launch the command line, resuming the steps to create Adapt courses.
Another tip, try and do everything with full Admin priviledges where possible ;)
Hi everybody,
after restart the installation (because of preview and asset upload issue), I just not succed to install the adapt npm.
It's just running for hours, no error message, no installation.
I've uninstall adapt with npm uninstall -g adapt-cli, but no way to reinstall it.
Did I lose something ?
Having node 0.12.7
git and grunt installed (no problem to run npm install -g grunt-cli).
Thanks a lot for any idea !
