Syntax error? #23

I get this when I try to run tidal-cli:

/usr/lib/node_modules/tidal-cli-client/app/index.js:9 const checkDependencies = async () => { ^

SyntaxError: Unexpected token ( at createScript (vm.js:56:10) at Object.runInThisContext (vm.js:97:10) at Module._compile (module.js:549:28) at Object.Module._extensions..js (module.js:586:10) at Module.load (module.js:494:32) at tryModuleLoad (module.js:453:12) at Function.Module._load (module.js:445:3) at Module.runMain (module.js:611:10) at run (bootstrap_node.js:387:7) at startup (bootstrap_node.js:153:9)

I just ran into the same error but then found out what the problem was: the async function is not supported by nodejs prior to version 7.6.

So I could make it work by installing a newer version of nodejs. Maybe this works for you as well.

You can find out your installed version by node -v

Yes, sorry but currently there is no babel or anything, so you must have the newer version of node.
