Cordova ios build not working

I am trying to create a new ios application. After adding the ios platform to the project, I try to build it, it does not build giving me this error.
(node:3047) fs: re-evaluating native module sources is not supported. If you are using the graceful-fs module, please update it to a more recent version.
I am suspecting a problem with the npm but cannot quite figure it out.
P.S. the root folder of my project does not include the package.json or the node_modules folder
