Use one of these techniques to install node and npm without having to sudo. Discussed in more detail at http://joyeur.com/2010/12/10/installing-node-and-npm/ Note: npm >=0.3 is *safer* when using sudo.
echo 'export PATH=$HOME/local/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc
. ~/.bashrc
mkdir ~/local
mkdir ~/node-latest-install
cd ~/node-latest-install
curl http://nodejs.org/dist/node-latest.tar.gz | tar xz --strip-components=1
./configure --prefix=~/local
make install # ok, fine, this step probably takes more than 30 seconds...
curl http://npmjs.org/install.sh | sh

A mock stream wrapper for node.js
var util = require("util"),
Stream = require("stream").Stream;
module.exports = MockStream;
/**
* A constructor that inherits from Stream and emits data from the given
* `source`. If it's a Stream it will be piped through to this stream.
* Otherwise, it should be a string or a Buffer which will be emitted by this
* stream as soon as possible.
