budi cli is failing after update to latest version (ReferenceError: crypto is not defined)

[gmentzik]

We were using cli 2.20.7 without issues. We want to upate Budibase from 2.19.5 to latest so first we wanted to update the cli tool
After updating cli to latest using

sudo npm install -g @budibase/cli

When we give command budi -V , we get the following error:

# budi -V
/opt/node-v18.19.0-linux-x64-glibc-217/lib/node_modules/@budibase/cli/dist/index.js:891140
    this.setId = crypto.randomUUID();
                 ^

hey @gmentzik - I believe you need to update node to version 20

[gmentzik]

Requirement till recently was node 18. I don't see anything at documentation about it. 2.20 was working fine.

Hi @andz-bb . I saw you have closed the ticket.
I have installed node 20 as you suggested and now cli seems to be working ok, but please update your documentation:
https://docs.budibase.com/docs/budibase-cli-setup
Example shows node18 , then it suggests 20+ and there no mention at prerequisites paragraph.
Is node 20+ suggests that node 22 can be used too?
