eslint error cannot read property 'range' of null

I have had the same eslint issue for days now.

Everyone on the team has the same eslintrc & installed version of eslint. Their eslint works fine, mine does not.

I have tried restarting my computer, deleting node_modules, deleting anything under my user (in home directory). Nothing works.

Issue:

./node_modules/.bin/eslint *.js* 
                                                                          1 ↵  11504  10:19:47

  }
}

Also, if I delete "parser": "babel-eslint" from my .eslinrc, the problem/erorr goes away, but my eslint doesn't work. I am using ES6 syntax.

UPDATE:

My solution was to use yarn instead of npm. Has solved the problem for the time being.

These .eslintrc rules fixed the problem for me:

rules : {
  "template-curly-spacing" : "off",
  "indent": ["error", 2, {
    "ignoredNodes": ["TemplateLiteral"]
  }]
}
