yo is not running

Question

I'm getting an error when trying to run yeoman. Just a simple version request. I just installed Node.js using the mac installer v6.2.0 and ran the following:

npm install -g yo

After getting no errors on install I ran yo -version:

/usr/local/lib/node_modules/yo/lib/cli.js:18  
var tabtab = new (require('tabtab').Commands.default)({  
             ^

TypeError: require(...).Commands.default is not a constructor

Answer 1

I also found the same problem with latest version of yo. Here is what I did to get me going.

1. Uninstall latest version of yo npm uninstall -g yo
2. Install version 1.4.6 with this command npm i -g [email protected]

This should get you going.

This has now been fixed. See the issue on Github here.
