Edge-impulse-cli installation issue in ubuntu 18.04

[prithvisingh]

Hi,
I am trying to install edge-impulse-cli on ubuntu 18.04. I have tried and referred various links but edge-impulse-cli is not getting installed.

I am able to detect the arduino nano 33 ble sense dev board and able to flash the code.
But edge-impulse-cli is not getting installed.

May be I am doing something differently, I am not sure.
Need help to fix the issue to complete the edge-impluse-cli installation and functional.

I have already referred below links:

Hi @prithvisingh

First on the CLI:
The command you used to install edge-impulse-cli looks correct. However, considering the issues, you might want to try cleaning the npm cache and then reinstalling:

npm cache clean --force
npm install -g --force edge-impulse-cli

NPM issues:

mkdir ~/.npm-global
npm config set prefix '~/.npm-global'
echo "export PATH=~/.npm-global/bin:$PATH" >> ~/.profile
source ~/.profile

Can you confirm if this is the REV2?

You can tell which version of the Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense you have by looking at the underside of the board. The first version will simply have NANO 33 BLE SENSE written in the silkscreen. The second version will have NANO 33 BLE SENSE REV2 .

If this is a REV2 specific problem I will try to loop in one of our team that has one to troubleshoot.

Best
