I'm having some issues installing on ubuntu linux.  I have the latest nodejs available for ubuntu - v0.10.37

Can anyone help with this? 

I get the following results when I install canvas-data-cli: 

root@canvasb:/home/millerjm# npm install -g canvas-data-cli

npm WARN engine canvas-data-cli@0.1.0: wanted: {"node":">=0.12.0"} (current: {"node":"0.10.37","npm":"1.4.28"})

Hey Joni,

Looks like you aren't running a new enough version of NodeJS This can be seen in the first line:

npm WARN engine canvas-data-cli@0.1.0: wanted: {"node":">=0.12.0"} (current: {"node":"0.10.37","npm":"1.4.28"})

It's kinda unfortunate how Node, and NPM only give a warning message instead of a full stop error, as one would hope. As such you'll need to upgrade node to something that meets the requirements (as shown in the message >=0.12.0). If some applications still require using Node 10, I'd recommend using a version manager for node such as NVM. In order to satisfy the version requirement.
