This is the error message I am seeing.

Your npm version is way too old…
Node.js 8 comes with npm >= 5 by default. Why do you still use npm 3?

[bobfang1992]

I upgraded to 6 and it still have this issue.

[haoqunjiang]

The error log shows it's still 3.5.2

npm ERR! node v8.10.0
npm ERR! npm v3.5.2

[haoqunjiang]

Seems /usr/bin/npm (which is v3.5.2) takes higher priority than /usr/local/bin/npm (which is v 6.14.6). Please either uninstall the one at /usr/bin/npm or modify your PATH environment variable to let /usr/local/bin/npm take higher precendence.

Thanks! Solved my issue.
