An alternate way to install pm2 offline is:

Create the tar file with the above steps mentioned by @soren.

in my case Installation hung while executing "npm install pm2.tar.gz".

npm install pm2.tar.gz

[..................] - fetchMetadata: sill resolveWithNewModule [email protected] checking installable status
[..................] - fetchMetadata: sill resolveWithNewModule [email protected] checking installable status

to get this resolved I have added the npm registry but that did not work.

npm config set registry="http://registry.npmjs.org"

Server's are into the DMZ or in a private subnet that's it's was not working.

Solution:-

Get the install path of the node_module directory

#npm config get prefix

Extract the tar file & Copy the pm2 directory to node_module

 #tar -zxvf pm2.tar.gz
 #cp pm2 /usr/local/lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/ -r

cd into the /usr/bin & Crete the simlink for pm2

 # cd /usr/bin
 #ln -s /usr/local/lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/pm2/bin/pm2 pm2

check pm2 command output & its output.

    # pm2
    usage: pm2 [options] <command>

    pm2 -h, --help             all available commands and options
    pm2 examples               display pm2 usage examples
    pm2 <command> -h           help on a specific command

    Access pm2 files in ~/.pm2

@Soren's answer work for me. to install it globally you need to pass -g argument to it.

Tested it on OpenSUSE 15 Enterprise.

for example:

ip-192-168-2-36:~ # npm install pm2-5.1.2.tgz -g
npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: Please upgrade  to version 7 or higher.  Older versions may use Math.random() in certain circumstances, which is known to be problematic.  See https://v8.dev/blog/math-random for details.

ip-192-168-2-36:~ # pm2 -v
[PM2] Spawning PM2 daemon with pm2_home=/root/.pm2

Without -g argument pm2 command will not work.

ip-192-168-2-36:~ # pm2
-bash: /usr/local/bin/pm2: No such file or directory
