Problem Description

After installing ‘nrm’, an open module error is reported when executing the command.

$ nrm ls
/usr/local/lib/node_modules/nrm/cli.js:9
const open = require('open');
             ^

Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: require() of ES Module /usr/local/lib/node_modules/nrm/node_modules/open/index.js from /usr/local/lib/node_modules/nrm/cli.js not supported.
Instead change the require of index.js in /usr/local/lib/node_modules/nrm/cli.js to a dynamic import() which is available in all CommonJS modules.
     at Object.<anonymous> (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/nrm/cli.js:9:14) {
   code: 'ERR_REQUIRE_ESM'
 }

Solution

open v9.0.0 is the ES Module version of the package, but nrm requires the CommonJs package. Therefore, execute the following command to install open v8.x.x.

$ npm install -g nrm open@8.4.2 --save

verify

$ nrm ls
