I am trying to install chart.js . Their documentation for how to install the package with NPM is here : http://www.chartjs.org/docs/latest/getting-started/installation.html

It says to enter the following with NPM to install.

npm install chart.js --save

However, it doesn't work for me. I get the followin error in my console when I try to install chart.js with NPM.

C:UsersHashim AHmedDesktopHashimcodingProject_PlasmaBirdyahoo_finance>npm install chart.js --save

EDIT: As some have pointed out, the error may lie in my Package.json so here is the code of my package file (i have censored out some private info) :

{

  name: projectplasma,

  version: 1.0.0,

  description: projectplasma,

  main: index.js,

  dependencies: {

    colors: ^1.1.2,

    yahoo-finance: ^0.3.2

  },

  devDependencies: {},

  scripts: {

    test: echo Error: no test specified && exit 1

  },

  repository: {

    type: git,

    url: git+https://github.com/(my username)/(my repo).git

  },

  keywords: [

  author: Hashim,

  license: ISC,

  bugs: {

    url: https://github.com/(myusername)/(my repo)/issues

  },

  homepage: https://github.com/(my username)/(my repo)#readme

Any ideas of what's going wrong here? I am doing exactly as the documentation is saying. If someone could test install this to see if it is working, that would be great. Thanks
