the latest version of chokidar is relying on upath v1.0.5
this results in errors on Node v10+ when running yarn:
error [email protected]: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version ">=4 <=9". Got "11.1.0"
error Found incompatible module
this has been addressed by the upath maintainers: https://github.com/anodynos/upath/issues/24
a version bump to 1.1.0 would resolve this issue.
They removed node <4 support. Can't update yet.
I'd suggest not installing with yarn - npm never explodes with incompatible engines.
yarn --ignore-engines install also works until this is fixed.
webpack is depending on chokidar and hence it isn't possible for projects depending on webpack to switch to node 10+. Isn't it possible to upgrade and discontinue node 4 support or replace upath with another dependency?
Node 4 has been EOL for nearly a year now... not LTS support.... EOL... why can't anyone still running Node 4 just live with an old version of chokidar?
We're going to drop nodes older than version 8 in 2.2 or 3.0; soon.
@paulmillr 馃憤 that should be a major bump, since it'll break people.
