Opened this issue · 1 comments

When I clone the repository and try to run npm install using node version 12.5 I get the following error:

> tendermint-node@4.0.0 preinstall /home/andy/Development/js-abci/node_modules/tendermint-node
> rm -f ./bin/tendermint && touch ./bin/tendermint


> tendermint-node@4.0.0 install /home/andy/Development/js-abci/node_modules/tendermint-node
> node ./bin/download.js

fs.js:27
const { Math, Object } = primordials;
                         ^

Doing some research found the link below suggesting to downgrade Node version. Downgrading node to version 11.15.0 it works

This mappum/tendermint-node#8 is the fix I created for this issue for a similar package. Should work for this too. unzip was the culprit there.
