For the the engine node is incompatible with this module problem. I tried to fix it, but It doesn’t work and returns the result I want. Here is my code:

{ 
  "engines" : { 
  "node" : ">=8.0.0" 
  }
 }
error [email protected]: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version ">=6 <7 || >=8". Got "7.0.0"

has occurred. I’ve checked the entire command line but still can’t find the mistake.

    The cause: Your Node version is out of date and doesn’t match the module

    Solution: Upgrading to the latest node version will solve this error

    You can use this way to fix the error:

    yarn config set ignore-engines true

    Method for a long-lasting solution is:

    1. delete node_modules/, package-lock.json & yarn.lock
    2. run yarn install or npm i again.

  2. You can ignore engines:

    $ yarn install --ignore-engines

    OR

    $ yarn global add <your app> --ignore-engines

    Running will show you everything that you can’t ignore. 

    $ yarn help | grep -- --ignore

--ignore-scripts don't run lifecycle scripts
--ignore-platform ignore platform checks
--ignore-engines ignore engines check
--ignore-optional ignore optional dependencies
