Flow-typed: Error in definitions file crashes install / search commands

Created on 27 May 2018  Â·  3Comments  Â·  Source: flow-typed/flow-typed

There is a CONTRIBUTING.md file in the react-apollo type definitions. This won't allow me to install or search any type definitions. This is the first time I am installing flow-typed and I have nothing in my local cache.
The output of, for example, flow-typed search [email protected] is:

(node:8056) DeprecationWarning: Using Buffer without `new` will soon stop working. Use `new Buffer()`, or preferably `Buffer.from()`, `Buffer.allocUnsafe()` or `Buffer.alloc()` instead.
• rebasing flow-typed cache...done.

FWIW I am also hitting this same exact issue

yarn global add flow-typed

Updating to the latest version of flow-typed is indeed the fix.
