Polymer CLI: SyntaxError: Unexpected strict mode reserved word

Question

I'm trying to install the polymer CLI from here: https://www.polymer-project.org/1.0/docs/tools/polymer-cli

However, after installing it I get an error when trying to run polymer help:

[~/Documents/roottest]$ polymer help                                                                                                                                                                                   ruby:2.2.4

nodenv 0.3.3

My node version is v0.10.26, my nodeenv version is 0.3.3. I'm using Mac.

Does anyone know how I would fix this?

Answer 1

Polymer CLI is not compatible with Node v0.10.26.

The setup guide indicates that Node 4.x or newer is required. You should actually upgrade to the latest stable version (6.2.0).
