Apache Cordova - uninstall globally

Question

I've installed cordova via npm and i did it globally, now i would like to remove it to reinstall it on single app folder

Any clue on how to do it safely?

Answer 1

Try sudo npm uninstall cordova -g to uninstall it globally and then just npm install cordova without the -g flag after cding to the local app directory

Answer 2

Try this for Windows:

    npm uninstall -g cordova

Try this for MAC:

    sudo npm uninstall -g cordova

You can also add Cordova like this:

1. If You Want To install the previous version of Cordova through the Node Package Manager (npm):

   npm install -g cordova@3.6.3-0.2.13
   

2. If You Want To install the latest version of Cordova:

   npm install -g cordova 
   

Enjoy!

Answer 3

Super late here and I still couldn't uninstall using sudo as the other answers suggest. What did it for me was checking where cordova was installed by running

which cordova

it will output something like this

/usr/local/bin/

then removing by

rm -rf /usr/local/bin/cordova
