I'm trying to install node-sqlserver for my application in the node_modules directory by typing the following command,
npm install node-sqlserver
This is what I get,
npm WARN package.json application-name@0.0.1 No README.md file found!
npm WARN package.json node@0.0.0 No README.md file found!

How do I resolve this issue? I'm using express as well
Your answer is in the output, you need to install python, following that you will get another error, you will need to install Microsoft SDK for Windows Server 2008 and dot net framework 3.5
