`FATAL ERROR: v8::ToLocalChecked Empty MaybeLocal.` on node 8

I started getting this error when updating from node 6 to node 8. I can reproduce running this code on my large repository but I haven’t yet tracked it down to which files are exactly causing it:

const glob = require('fast-glob');

const files = glob.sync('**/*.js', {
    bashNative: [],
    onlyFiles: true,
    cwd: process.cwd(),
    ignore: ['node_modules/**'],
});

console.log(files);

Thanks for clarifying the problem! So, we well work on the solution here:

• https://github.com/BigstickCarpet/readdir-enhanced/issues/11

Also you can follow to #42.

@jrylan, @robrichard,

Please, try to use npm i fast-glob@next --force for your broken cases. I tried to fix the problem with large directories, temporarily switching to the readdir-enhanced fork.
