unable to start, syntax

[aburger]

hi there,

i am new with node.js as with tus, i tried to start an example und run in one problem after the other. first your examples are with const, but the code i got wit npm install uses strict and so const does not work. there are even module in the installbase with const.

then:
npm run example

tus-node-server@0.1.0 example /usr/local/node_modules/tus-node-server
nodemon example/server.js

[nodemon] 1.10.0
[nodemon] to restart at any time, enter rs
[nodemon] watching: .
[nodemon] starting node example/server.js

/usr/local/node_modules/tus-node-server/index.js:9
Server,
^

where inds.js contains:
module.exports = {
Server,
DataStore,
FileStore,
GCSDataStore,
};

It seems like you are using an older version of Node.js which does not support the newer ES2016 syntax. We recommend using, at least, Node.js 4.2.X for full support. Please try this approach.

It's generally recommended to use a version manager for Node, such as nvm (https://github.com/creationix/nvm) or n (https://github.com/tj/n).

it works with the new version via git, thanks
