I am getting a python version error while installing web3js from npm

gyp ERR! stack Error: Python executable "/anaconda3/bin/python" is v3.6.4, which is not supported by gyp.
gyp ERR! stack You can pass the --python switch to point to Python >= v2.5.0 & < 3.0.0.

Is there any way of installing [email protected] and better version while working on python3 only

Your problem is caused by node-gyp. You can try npm config set python python2.7 or if you have node-gyp installed node-gyp --python=python2.7 or create a new conda env with python v2.7 and try executing the command within that env.
