ts-node 错误：找不到兼容的 `parseConfigFile` 函数

Question

I just install the ts-node with npm install -g ts-node but I can't execute the REPL, it gives me this error:

/usr/lib/node_modules/ts-node/src/index.ts:478
  throw new TypeError('Could not find a compatible `parseConfigFile` function')
        ^

I'm using Fedora 27. Any idea?

This may be a Fedora problem. I installed typescript with dnf and ts-node with npm . To fix I had to uninstall the typescript with dnf remove -y nodejs-typescript and reinstall it with npm i -g typescript .

The installation commands need root permissions to write to system folders. Now everything works fine. :-)

Regards.
