Rerun with the --debug flag and update this issue with the errors you see.
pkg --debug .\src\server\index.js

Same issue here :

Same error multiple times on different files. I guess that the source syntax is incorrect somewhere

This is mine:

SyntaxError: Unexpected token export
/snapshot/proj1/node_modules/safefs/es6/lib/safefs.js:178
export default safefs
^^^^^^

Im having this error as well on Ubuntu, node version 8

FWIW - I encountered this same error.

Through trial and error, I figured out that I had a module that was 'required' TWICE.

After I removed the redundant require(), pkg 'compiled' successfully.

I'm encountering this issue with safefs as well

No solution...?

[mreis1]

npm install [email protected] -g
Will use node v8.0.0 . This solved my issue

[nwrox]

I was with the same problem, I managed to solve by transpiling the code with babel before running the pkg.

node v8.11.1
pkg 4.3.7

pkg conf and scripts in package.json

"bin": "build/index.js",
"pkg": {
  "assets": [
    ".env"
  ],
  "scripts": [
    "build/**/*.js"
  ]
},
"scripts": {
  "build": "babel src -d ./build",
  "clean": "rm -rf build dist && mkdir build dist",
  "pack": "npm run clean && npm run build && pkg . --out-path ./dist -t node8-win-x64"
}

Same issue here except with vue-loader.

\node_modules\vue-loader\lib\runtime\componentNormalizer.js:7
export default function normalizeComponent (
^^^^^^

SyntaxError: Unexpected token export

Will try running everything through babel which seems to have worked for some.

EDIT:
Looks like running everything through babel didn't fix the issue in my case.

Are you trying to pack an UI with pkg? i think that pkg isn't suitable for that, maybe you should use other package like electron.

I'm trying to package a nuxt application, specifically the server.
