SyntaxError: Unexpected token '.'

Whenever I try to run the command "jsdoc -c jsdoc.json" in my terminal I receive the following error:

...node_nodules\better-docs\typescript\type-converter.js:45 let name = node.name?.escapedText ^

SyntaxError: Unexpected token '.' at new Script (vm.js:88:7) at createScript (vm.js:261:10) at Object.runInThisContext (vm.js:309:10) at wrapSafe (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:902:15) at Module._compile (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:963:27) at Object.Module._extensions..js (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:1027:10) at Module.load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:863:32) at Object.load (C:\Users\JimArmbruster\source\repos\cyborg-cloud-web\node_modules\requizzle\lib\loader.js:105:18) at Requizzle.requizzle (C:\Users\JimArmbruster\source\repos\cyborg-cloud-web\node_modules\requizzle\lib\requizzle.js:87:31) at infectProxy (C:\Users\JimArmbruster\source\repos\cyborg-cloud-web\node_modules\requizzle\lib\loader.js:79:31) at Module.targetModule.require (C:\Users\JimArmbruster\source\repos\cyborg-cloud-web\node_modules\requizzle\lib\loader.js:97:44) at require (internal/modules/cjs/helpers.js:74:18) at Object.

My jsdoc.json file looks like this:

{ "opts": { "template": "./node_modules/better-docs" }, "tags": { "allowUnknownTags": true }, "plugins": [ "./node_modules/better-docs/typescript", "./node_modules/better-docs/component", "./node_modules/better-docs/typedef-import", "plugins/markdown" ], "source": { "includePattern": "\\.(jsx|js|ts|tsx)$", "include": ["./src"], "exclude": ["./docs", "./node_modules"], "excludePattern": "(node_modules/|docs)" } }

I'm using:

jsdoc: ^3.6.7, better-docs: ^2.7.2, react: ^17.0.2, typescript: ^4.6.3

I'm also using v12.20.0 of node.

[rangerch]

same error.

different is, typescript: ^4.7.4 node: 12.21.0

update node version to 16 can solve this problem!
