I tried to reinstall sqlite3 by 7pm install sqlite3, and it said:

npm WARN deprecated @npmcli/[email removed] This functionality has been moved to @npmcli/fs
npm WARN deprecated [email removed] Please upgrade to @mapbox/node-pre-gyp: the non-scoped node-pre-gyp package is deprecated and only the @mapbox scoped package will recieve updates in the future

I noticed the deprecated node-pre-gyp@0.17.0 may cause problem, and re-install it by:

npm uninstall node-pre-gyp --save

npm install @mapbox/node-pre-gyp --save

after that, init again using :

npm init @Shopify_77 [email removed]

It works !!!
