or if you're using yarn:

yarn add bcrypt

I followed some course, and for me it didn't work. My mistake was:

var bcrypt = require('bcrypt.js'); 

But when I changed it to

var bcrypt = require('bcryptjs');

It worked!

Using npm install bcrypt command can't resolve the issue for me.

I tried the commands below and my issue resolved.

npm install bcrypt -g

Answer 6

First check node-modules folder for a folder with this name bcrypt. If it exists with another name just rename it; for example bcrypt-pbkdf must be edited to bcrypt. If there isn't such a folder, do this in cmd:

npm install node-gyp -g
# bcrypt reqired node-pre-gyp
npm install -g node-pre-gyp
npm install bcrypt -g
npm install bcrypt --save
