Generator is not working with node v12

When running it, I get this error:

ReferenceError: primordials is not defined

After a bit of Googling around this error, the consensus seems to be that graceful-fs is broken in node v12.

As a workaround, I ran this:

find $(npm config get prefix)/lib/node_modules/generator-apigee-deploy-grunt-api  \
-name "graceful-fs" \
-exec sh -c 'cd {}/../.. && npm install [email protected]' \;

To force all dependencies on graceful-fs to use version 4.2.3, and I did not get that error afterwards. Seems that a fix for this could be to make sure package-lock.json is published to NPM with a working version of graceful-fs.

Sorry you ran into that. Thanks for posting a workaround.
