Requires node 0.10

[stevoland]

Got an error with node 0.8.

package.info should include something like:

"engine": "node >= 0.10"

Thanks for the heads up!

Thanks guys - @stevoland: Was the error related to esprima? I've suspected that that error I've seen occasionally was related to my outdated node version - when I updated node, the error went away.

Thanks @zpao!

@jordwalke: Don't think so. This was the error with node 0.8.16:

I just got this exact same error message has no method 'match' when using react-tools to transform .jsx templates.

The issue here was that I loaded a template like reactTools.transform(fs.readFileSync('./myfile.jsx')), problem is that readFileSync returns a Buffer instead of a string, so you have to convert to string first, or you have to specify encoding in options so that readFileSync returns a string immediately.
