Error: Cannot Find Module 'google-protobuf'

Following to my previous question, I'm trying to use protocol buffers in node.js. I've generated ServiceMessage_pb.js from my ServiceMessage.proto, and add the following code: var

Solution 1:

You can install the module with npm:

npm install --save protobuf

Then require it this way:

var my_protobuff = require ("protobuf");

Solution 2:

    npm i google-protobuf

I run into so many problem installing just "protobuf" !

Also the official protobuf javascript package is "google-protobuf": https://www.npmjs.com/package/google-protobuf
