Update Ionic to the latest version
I am trying to update Ionic to the latest version. If you look here it shows that the latest version 3.0.0
. I am also following this tutorial.
So I am doing the following:
sudo npm uninstall -g ionic
sudo npm install -g ionic@latest
Prefixes:
Richards-MacBook-Pro:theWhoZoo richardmarais$ sudo npm install -g ionic
Password:
/Users/richardmarais/npm-global/bin/ionic -> /Users/richardmarais/npm-global/lib/node_modules/ionic/bin/ionic
/Users/richardmarais/npm-global/lib
└── ionic@3.0.0
But when I run:
ionic -v
I get:
2.1.18
and
ionic info
I get:
Your system information:
Cordova CLI: 6.4.0
Ionic Framework Version: 3.1.1
Ionic CLI Version: 2.1.18
Ionic App Lib Version: 2.1.9
Ionic App Scripts Version: 1.3.0
ios-deploy version: Not installed
ios-sim version: Not installed
OS: macOS Sierra
Node Version: v7.10.0
Xcode version: Xcode 8.3.2 Build version 8E2002
I expect it to update the value Ionic CLI Version: 2.1.18
to 3.0.0
. Is this a correct assumption? If so, do you know what I am doing wrong?

We chatted. Things that were helpful:
- Make sure you completely uninstall all previous versions using
npm uninstall -g ionic
or manually fromrm -rf /usr/local/lib/node_modules
. Don't forget to remove the symbolic link as well:rm -rf /usr/local/bin/ionic
- After completely removing, you should see an error: command not found from
ionic -v
- And now if your path is
npm root -g
right like/usr/local/lib/node_modules
, try installingnpm install -g ionic@latest
. Then you should get the correct outputionic -v
