using sys root for 'iPhoneSimulator' but targeting 'MacOSX' warning in NPM install

for some reason I'm not able to do NPM install on my project anymore since I'm getting the following messages:

  SOLINK_MODULE(target) Release/.nodeclang: warning: using sysroot for 'iPhoneSimulator' but targeting 'MacOSX' [-Wincompatible-sysroot]ld: warning: building for macOS, but linking in .tbd file (/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneSimulator13.5.sdk/usr/lib/libc++.tbd) built for iOS Simulatorld: warning: building for macOS, but linking in .tbd file (/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneSimulator13.5.sdk/usr/lib/libSystem.tbd) built for iOS Simulatorld: warning: building for macOS, but linking in .tbd file (/usr/lib/system/libcache.dylib) built for iOS Simulatorld: warning: building for macOS, but linking in .tbd file (/usr/lib/system/libcommonCrypto.dylib) built for iOS Simulatorld: warning: building for macOS, but linking in .tbd file (/usr/lib/system/libcompiler_rt.dylib) built for iOS Simulatorld: warning: building for macOS, but linking in .tbd file (/usr/lib/system/libcopyfile.dylib) built for iOS Simulatorld: warning: bui

How to fix this???? I have tried uninstalling node and reinstalling node but I'm still getting the same error.
