(nodejs)(nodejs.install) Outdated about chocolatey-packages HOT 4 CLOSED

The current website seems to be much harder to parse than it was. My first thought was to reach out to the nodejs team if they have a json file on their website. That would make it much easer to get the correct download links.

The Update-AUPackages.md lists the error message

au_GetLatest failed; The 64bit executable is the same as the 32bit

(this is also true for the package nodejs.install)

from chocolatey-packages.

I did a little analysis of the nodejs.install/update.ps1 script:

• the message The 64bit executable is the same as the 32bit is shown when the $url32 and $url64 are equal
• they are both empty because parsing of the content from https://nodejs.org/en/download didnt return the expacted result
• nodejs changed their download page in a way that requires to change the update.ps1

@michha are you in a position to submit a PR to fix this?
