SyntaxError: Unexpected token '.'

Open huan opened this issue 3 years ago • 11 comments

TL;DR: Update Node.js to version 16+

If you saw the following error messages:

SyntaxError: Unexpected token '.'
    at Loader.moduleStrategy (internal/modules/esm/translators.js:140:18)

Then please check the version of your Node.js:

node --version
  • ~~10~~
  • ~~12~~
  • 14
  • 16

If the version is below 14, then you need to upgrade Node.js to version 14 or above (16 is recommended).

Wechaty requires Node.js 14+ since version 0.69
