Enumify Symbol is not defined

[briansoule]

After building from source, and installing requests, I received this error:

/usr/local/lib/node_modules/uber-cli/node_modules/enumify/lib/enumify.js:14
var INITIALIZED = Symbol();
                  ^

@briansoule certainly an interesting error - do you mind providing your node and npm version?

@markmark1 might be related to this issue and more particularly this comment. Basically, it seems that Symbol was added to node v0.12.0.

[sjs7007]

@jaebradley Exactly. Faced the same issue and posted fix here. Also pasting the solution here :

Fixed by updating nodejs using instructions listed below from this stackoverflow answer.

1. Clear NPM's cache:

sudo npm cache clean -f

2. Install a little helper called 'n'

sudo npm install -g n

3. Install latest stable Node.js version

sudo n stable

@sjs7007 thanks for the helpful instructions both here and in #27. @markmark1 I'm going to close this for now - if still find issues after following @sjs7007 's instructions feel free to reopen.
