IBM Bluemix ibm_db dashDB module 0.0.15 no longer compiles; module upgrade perhaps?

Question

Has there been a recent "ibm_db" for dashDB module upgrade? We have been using the Bluemix node.js and ibm_db module to access dashDB. The module has worked ok but now on 10.5.2016 the module no longer compiles on Bluemix. The version we have been using is defined in package.json as ibm_db ^0.0.15. Below is an example of the Bluemix building error log.

You have to update to ibm_db 0.0.18 to use with Node.js 4.x.

Per your logs you are using Node.js 4.4.3, so your package.json file should be something like:

{
        "name": "NodejsStarterApp",
        "version": "0.0.1",
        "private": true,
        "scripts": {
                "start": "node app.js"
        },
        "dependencies": {
                "express": "4.13.x",
                "cfenv": "1.0.x",
                "ibm_db": "0.0.18"
        },
        "repository": {},
        "engines": {
                "node": "4.x"
        }
}
