Installing for Node.js only
Installing for Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS and Other Linux Distributions
---------------------------
> Note: Node.js 7.0.0+ is not currently supported unless compiling with a patched
vesion of SWIG. See the corresponding section and document below.
You can also install just the node.js mraa module by using npm. You will need a
C++ compiler and the node development headers, however it's not required to
have SWIG installed. This works for node versions 6.x.x and prior.
```bash
npm install mraa
```
Note that installing mraa in this way builds mraa without json-c so you cannot
use mraa_init_json_platform(). Also building this way means the mraa.node
includes a static version of libmraa rather than relying on a dynamic library
in /usr/lib.
Subplatforms (i.e. Firmata) have to be added manually with this kind of install
from your application, as shown in [this example](examples/javascript/firmata.js).
The MRAA project does not currently distribute official binaries for RHEL
or CentOS so developers will have to compiler the project from sources as
described in the next section.
