Just add 1 space in between keys and values in your App.yaml file

runtime: nodejs8
vm: true
env: flex

It will work :)

One issue is the you need spaces in the app.yaml file, this is what causes the error:

ERROR: gcloud crashed (TypeError): expected string or buffer...

First add the spaces:

runtime: nodejs8
vm: true
env: flex

Also you're including deprecated characteristics in the app.yaml. The vm: true should be deleted and only use env: flex.

So the final version of the app.yaml should be:

runtime: nodejs
env: flex

#plus other config options

If you want to specify the nodejs version, add this to the package.json:

{
  "engines": {
    "node": "9.x"
  }
}

Please see the details here
