I am getting following error in the terminal, while it tries to install one of package "node-expat". I have tried switching to different node version using nvm but still it is failing with same error.

I went ahead installing x-code as suggested on git hub page, on my machine and then it is giving following error,. Not sure how to debug further.
xcode-select: error: tool 'xcodebuild' requires Xcode,
but active developer directory '/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools' is a command line tools instance

If the most complex node-gyp -related dependency you have in your project is something common like node-sass then this is usually the fix you need. Open the file, find the MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET key value and replace it with your current Mac OS version ( 10.15. 3 for Catalina for example).
node-gyp is a cross-platform command-line tool written in Node. js for compiling native addon modules for Node. js. It contains a vendored copy of the gyp-next project that was previously used by the Chromium team, extended to support the development of Node.
Broken npm installation If your npm is broken: On Mac or Linux, reinstall npm. Windows: If you're on Windows and you have a broken installation, the easiest thing to do is to reinstall node from the official installer (see this note about installing the latest stable version).
You should have some familiarity with the Mac Terminal application since you'll need to use it to install and test Node and NPM. You'll also need the Terminal to use Node. js and NPM. The Terminal application is located in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder.
I just got it fixed on my machine and my fellow colleagues machine.
Followed the following steps to fix it on MacOS highSierra 10.13:

Solution above mentioned by Luke worked partially for me (MacOS) but created another issue :
gyp ERR! stack Error:makefailed with exit code: 2 which was solved by removing locked json file. Issue was created due to permission in MAC OS. So if you have xcode re-installed already, open terminal (command line) and type:
xcode-select --reset
then go to your project folder and remove: package-lock.json Now in terminal reinstall project :
npm install
I hope this helps someone!
