PowerBI Visual Tools (pbiviz) - Installation Error

I am trying to follow the given steps in https://github.com/Microsoft/PowerBI-visuals-docs/blob/master/tools/README.md# installation to create my custom visuals in PowerBI.

I installed nodeJS 4.0+ and trying to install powerbi-visual-tools with the command npm install -g powerbi-visuals-tools. To confirm it was installed correctly we can run the command pbviz without any parameters which should display the help screen. But i am getting an error in my cmd

C:\>pbiviz
C:\Users\code1234\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\powerbi-visuals-tools\bin\pbiviz.js:30
let exec = require('child_process').execSync;
