Why did you close this? I'm having the same error.

zeldatp151 commented 4 years ago

Sorry, the issue was my fault, make sure you have nodejs version 10 or higher, I was trying to run this on ubuntu 18.04 which only had nodejs 8 in its repo, so I updated to ubunutu 20.04 and installed nodejs 10. fixed everything.

Gotcha, thank you. I ran an update within nodejs but apparently that didn't update to the latest version of it completely. I was having the same issue, apparently. Much appreciated!

Sorry for never responding to this issue, never even saw (honestly don't check my closed issues much).

I've added a note in the README about Node.js versions and that I developed this for 12.x.x.

(Also sorry for necro'ing an old issue, but thought I wanna mention it)
