npm - Object function Object() { [native code] } has no method 'assign'

Question

First of all, I did see the similar documents:

Node.js TypeError: Object function Object() { [native code] } has no method 'assign'

TypeError: Object function Object() { [native code] } has no method 'method'

However..

I am using node version 0.10.48 (my app uses deprecated node api so I rather stay on this version).

whenever I try to install a new module, or even run scripts that require modules, I receive the following error: typeerror object function object() native code has no method 'assign'

I cannot even use npm v or npm install/uninstall..

How do I get rid of this error? I simply cannot do anything on the terminal :(

I would try reinstalling Node 0.10.48 so that it ensures you have the correct version of npm. Also make sure you're not trying to install modules that don't support 0.10.48 — Patrick Roberts

From your browser, download the installer... in 0.10.48, you cannot use npm install npm, you must install it alongside Node — Patrick Roberts

@PatrickRoberts Oh, haven't tought about that. I've installed the file and got in the 'bin/' folder 'node' exectuable and 'npm' files. How do I install this files? — user5618793

You could try this: https://nodejs.org/en/download/package-manager/#osx

curl "https://nodejs.org/dist/latest/node-${VERSION:-$(wget -qO- https://nodejs.org/dist/latest/ | sed -nE 's|.*>node-(.*)\.pkg</a>.*|\1|p')}.pkg" > "$HOME/Downloads/node-latest.pkg" && sudo installer -store -pkg "$HOME/Downloads/node-latest.pkg" -target "/"

Worked for me on Amazon Linux as well (different command).
