Ubuntu Server 20.04: oputil.js gives 'flat is not a function' error

[LilFonky]

Describe the Bug
Attempting to install using curl script, which appears to complete without issue. Unable to complete initial config due to ./oputil.js config new erroring out with

(node:319138) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: this.breakLines(...).flat is not a function

Will include full terminal output below

To Reproduce

Just run ./oputil.js config new after initial install. Tried npm rebuild with no effect.

Expected Behavior
Expected prompts associated with first run configuration.

Actual Behavior

analytic@origin:~/enigma-bbs$ ./oputil.js config new

Tried updating to latest version of nodejs and seem to have made matters worse:

Re-ran npm rebuild and now it seems to be working. Will leave this thread up just in case someone else hits this snag...

[NuSkooler]

If you're using the latest off of master you should be at version 0.0.13-beta and install.sh will require Node.js 14+. I see you're at version 12 -- you will need to upgrade.

I'll get this issue template updated. Looks like it was missed.

[LilFonky]

Thanks I will look for it.

Just FTR I am able to run the config script but not able to run main.js, but I assume this is to do with the Node version. If it's not working I will post terminal output once I get a newer version of Node.js sorted. Thanks for the heads-up!

OK upgraded to Node.js 16.15.0 and still unable to run ./main.js. Terminal says this:

analytic@origin:~/enigma-bbs$ ./main.js

If if do bash main.js I get:

main.js: line 3: /bin: Is a directory
main.js: line 4: use strict: command not found
main.js: line 6: /bin: Is a directory
main.js: line 7: ENiGMA½: command not found
main.js: line 12: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `''
main.js: line 13: syntax error: unexpected end of file

Any insight will be much appreciated!

After updating Node, you need to run npm install or (yarn, if you used that) again. To be extra safe, delete the node_modules directory first.

main.js isn't a Bash script, so you wont' be able to do that. It's executable though, so once you do the above to fix the modules, you can just ./main.js or node main.js

[LilFonky]

Just started it up successfully. Thanks for seeing me over the finish line!

[NuSkooler]

@LilFonky Awesome, I'm glad it's working for you! Enjoy!
