NPM 找不到 type@module 的匹配版本

Question

当我尝试使用nodemailer模块时，弹出以下日志错误：

0 verbose cli [
0 verbose cli   '/usr/local/bin/node',
0 verbose cli   '/usr/local/bin/npm',
0 verbose cli   'install',

我尝试删除 package_lock 和 node_modules，但是通过 npm 进行的任何安装都以错误结束：notarget 找不到类型 @ 模块的匹配版本。我只是在学习节点，任何提示都会有很大帮助。尝试在 google 上找到类似错误的各种解决方案均未产生结果。

我通过 npm install -g 解决了问题 - 不确定长期后果可能是什么，但它现在有效。
