This is a known issue related to website errors on atom.io. See: atom#25438, atom#25426.

One workaround is to install directly from GitHub via terminal…

apm install AtomLinter/linter-eslint-node

…but I have not tried this yet. I don't know if it requires uninstalling the version from atom.io, or if you'd still get automatic updates. I am holding out hope that the website issue is just a simple fix and somebody's just on vacation or something.

So this isn't our bug. But I'll keep this issue open for visibility until the website problems are fixed.

Got it.

Thanks for the advice, the good news is apm was able to install the package. Hopefully Atom can fix this at their end.

Keeping this open so people will see it if they try to report this again.

apm install AtomLinter/linter-eslint-node
Cloning https://github.com/AtomLinter/linter-eslint-node.git failed
Installing modules done
Cannot read property 'getReferenceTarget' of null

I'm getting this error. It doesn't show up in my packages.

It doesn't happen for me. Can you try installing some other package via apm and see if the same error occurs?

using apm worked for me on atom 1.61.0-beta0
