Everytime I try to use NPM to install something into /storage/emulated/0/dir it would always do this:

npm WARN tar EPERM: operation not permitted, futime
npm WARN tar EPERM: operation not permitted, futime
npm WARN tar EPERM: operation not permitted, futime
npm WARN tar EPERM: operation not permitted, futime
npm WARN tar EPERM: operation not permitted, futime

npm WARN tar EPERM: operation not permitted, futime
npm WARN tar EPERM: operation not permitted, futime
npm WARN tar EPERM: operation not permitted, futime
npm WARN tar EPERM: operation not permitted, futime

It has access to download things using git and other methods but it never seems to work using NPM.

When installing something with npm try the --user option: npm install --user – Robert Jan 07 '21 at 08:35
Probably it would work with a HOME=/data/data/com.termux/files npm -i ..., does it? – peterh Jan 09 '21 at 21:01
