Trying to install this on a Directus Digital Ocean droplet and I'm getting this error:

Seeing this in the logs:

Works great when I install on localhost, just not sure why this isn't working on a droplet.

I think this happens because the issue with the local dependencies with npm@6. I will try to dig on it, but for now it seems the requirement is NPM >= 7

[dimitrov-adrian]

Update: It's really because the NPM@6 (related issue npm/cli#1414)

@daltonsutton is it possible to use npm 7?

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Just tried this out and that's exactly what it was! Totally missed that. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
