Cannot parse privateKey: Unsupported key format

In my Mac book pro with OS Majave, I used SSH-KEYGEN generate a new SSH key for node.js module SSH2. However, I got error message "Cannot parse privateKey: Unsupported key format". I validated the key with ssh command, it just works fine. But not the node.js module SSH2. In the private key file, the header is "-----BEGIN OPENSSH PRIVATE KEY-----" while the end is "-----END OPENSSH PRIVATE KEY-----". I checked module ssh2-streams keyParser.js. The regexp pattern RE_HEADER_OPENSSH_PRIV does not include my header. Anyone can help?
