curl -L http://npmjs.org/install.sh | sudo sh

Note the sudo in front. The errors you get are due to installer trying to copy files to system folders, requiring administrative permissions.

Also, you do not actually need to install NPM, as it is included in latest Node.js versions. To install Node.js on MacOS, refer to their official site.

To fix it, run sh using sudo:

$ curl http://npmjs.org/install.sh | sudo sh
