I am unable to understand what is causing it. I am trying to migrate code from cfn to cdk. Please help me with this issue.
Check this thread from GitHub: https://github.com/google/docsy/issues/265 Basically, what you need to do is to upgrade the node version to 10.0.0 or higher and update the fs-extra package to 9.0.0 or higher. For me, it just worked with the update of node.
As commented by Carlos, do this, please:
cd ~
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_14.x -o nodesource_setup.sh
sudo bash nodesource_setup.sh
sudo apt install nodejs
After this, check the version:
node -v
The result should be:
v14.16.0
