Install npm without sudo

Question

I have to install npm on a computer that doesn't have root privileges, I will have a number of errors due to missing dependencies. I attach the screen. Any idea? Thanks.

From isaacs, one of the contributors of node.js:

   echo 'export PATH=$HOME/local/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc
    . ~/.bashrc
    mkdir ~/local
    mkdir ~/node-latest-install
    cd ~/node-latest-install
    curl http://nodejs.org/dist/node-latest.tar.gz | tar xz --strip-components=1
    ./configure --prefix=~/local
    make install
    curl https://www.npmjs.org/install.sh | sh
