Error while getCurrentConnections()

[haloszymek]

Hey guys, I need help with getCurrentConnections function. I need to get Promise back, I try to do if this way:

wifi.init({ iface : 'wlp3s0' });

wifi.getCurrentConnections().then(function (current) {
  console.log(current)
}).catch(function (error) {
  console.log(error)
})

I have this error instead:

/home//JavaScript/sandbox/main.js:8
wifi.getCurrentConnections().then(function (current) {
                            ^

TypeError: Cannot read property 'then' of undefined

    at startup (bootstrap_node.js:187:16)
    at bootstrap_node.js:608:3

But when I try to use it in my project, I get different error:

{ Error: Command failed: nmcli --terse --fields active,ssid,bssid,mode,chan,freq,signal,security,wpa-flags,rsn-flags,device device wifi ifname wlp3s0
Error: 'device wifi' command 'ifname' is not valid.

What can be wrong?

The problem is that nmcli expects a command with format: nmcli device wifi [list [ifname ifname] [bssid BSSID]] but the code is leaving out 'list' which it needs in order to have a valid command.
