npm install grunt-cli --save-dev
I get the following errors:
Do I need to change some network settings?

I installed grunt globally by running the following commands
npm install grunt grunt-cli -g
And I also installed grunt and other project dependencies locally to my project by running
npm install
npm install grunt --save-dev
But grunt keeps telling me "Unable to find local grunt"
I'm Using ubuntu 16.04 on DigitalOcean and I have nodejs and npm installed
what is the problem?
I've installed grunt :
sudo npm install -g grunt-cli
/Users/user/.nvm/versions/node/v4.3.0/bin/grunt -> /Users/user/.nvm/versions/node/v4.3.0/lib/node_modules/grunt-cli/bin/grunt
/Users/user/.nvm/versions/node/v4.3.0/lib
└── grunt-cli#1.2.0
But when i run grunt i have errors:
grunt
grunt-cli: The grunt command line interface (v1.2.0)
Fatal error: Unable to find local grunt.
If you're seeing this message, grunt hasn't been installed locally to
your project. For more information about installing and configuring grunt,
please see the Getting Started guide:

Where i am wrong please ?
you have to install grunt globally and locally
you have installed the cli globally with the -g flag
now you have to install it locally in your package.json with ...
npm install -SD grunt
then your "grunt" command will work - assuming you have a valid gruntfile
This looks like a duplicate of Fatal error: Unable to find local grunt.
In a nutshell, try running grunt:init or npm:init first (depending on the version you have. See linked question for more details.
install the command-line interface:
npm install -g grunt-cli
install the local task runner:
cd [my project root]
npm install grunt --save-dev
define your Gruntfile.js as per http://gruntjs.com/getting-started#the-gruntfile
run the tasks with: grunt
Been trying to install Grunt on my laptop to try it out, I already had Node, so installed the Grunt cli which went ok and then ran the command npm init to create the package.json file, followed the necessary steps and also went well, however when I get to the point of installing dependencies, I get an error.
For instance am trying to install Grunt as a dependency, with the following command:
npm install grunt --save-dev
After running this command I get the following error:
No README.md file found
If anyone knows what I am meant to do please let me know.
After running
yo ionic
from https://github.com/diegonetto/generator-ionic
Then lauching grunt serve i've got this :
Running "wiredep:app" (wiredep) task
Cannot find where you keep your Bower packages.
I'm stuck and I can't get a preview of the app.
I update grunt-wiredep npm install --save-dev grunt-wiredep and then run a bower install bower install jquery --save I call the Grunt task grunt wiredep and it was done without any errors, finally i could run grunt serve
#arnaudlrx 's answer is correct but check if you instal git in your machine , because if you run
bower install jquery --save
but you don't have git installed there nothing will work
I cannot get grunt to work at all on Windows 7. Following the instructions on the Grunt website (http://gruntjs.com/getting-started) I've run:
npm uninstall -g grunt-cli
npm uninstall grunt
npm uninstall -g grunt-init
git clone git#github.com:gruntjs/grunt-init-jquery.git c:/Users/me/.grunt-init/jquery
npm install -g grunt-cli
grunt-init jquery
npm install .
After that, running "grunt" produces the following output:
grunt-cli: The grunt command line interface. (v0.1.9)
Fatal error: Unable to find local grunt.
If you're seeing this message, either a Gruntfile wasn't found or grunt
hasn't been installed locally to your project. For more information about

Running "npm install grunt" in the current directory gives the same error when running grunt.
Any thoughts? My understanding is that grunt-cli is meant to look for a local grunt install, but I can't work out why it can't find it.
I know its been 2 years since this question was asked. However if someone wants in future:
I got the exact same issue. And I got this fixed by installing grunt locally. As per grunt site,
Note that installing grunt-cli does not install the Grunt task runner!
The job of the Grunt CLI is simple: run the version of Grunt which has
been installed next to a Gruntfile. This allows multiple versions of
Grunt to be installed on the same machine simultaneously.
So I just got it working by installing Grunt locally.
npm install grunt --save-dev
--save : adds it to your package.json.
-dev: adds it as a dev dependency.
There must be a Gruntfile.js located in the directory you run the command from. Also double check that 'npm install grunt' actually gave you a node_modules directory with a sub directory called grunt.
You should install grunt in GUI mode.
Open node.js cmd prompt then open the root folder and run the below commands
npm install ( once it done you can able to see node_modules folder in the root folder)
npm install –g grunt-cli (change the version from ("version": "minified" to Current release("version":"1.11"); you should replace with minified once you run build)
grunt build:full
Note: Version has to change when running grunt very first time.
if the above answer do not works then you can try by using this
rm -rf node_modules/ && npm cache clean && npm install
