npm install fails on Mac

[johnscancella]

I was following the guide from https://github.com/zooniverse/scribeAPI/wiki/Setup-Mac-OSX and when I try to npm install it errors:

npm WARN deprecated graceful-fs@2.0.3: please upgrade to graceful-fs 4 for compatibility with current and future versions of Node.js

> contextify@0.1.15 install /Users/jscancella/development/repos/scribeAPI/node_modules/contextify

Hi - check you are running a node version that this code can work with, see https://github.com/zooniverse/scribeAPI/issues/597#issuecomment-377234756 for more details.

npm install completes (with warnings) for me on OSX with node 0.10.48/npm 2.15.1. Fails with a node-gyp build error with node 8.11.1/npm 5.6.0

Even though installation succeeds with 0.10, I see a bunch of version warnings from dependencies that require more recent versions of node.

EDIT: node 6 is the most recent version that I can get to work with Scribe. @johnscancella if you don't use it already, I recommend installing nvm so that you can easily switch node versions.

[johnscancella]

@camallen thanks for that, I didn't realize I needed such an old version of node.

[johnscancella]

When I reverted to node 4.9.1 and npm 2.15.11 which then works.

This line could be updated to better reflect the node versions that work: https://github.com/zooniverse/scribeAPI/blob/master/package.json#L10
