Dependencies update

[MichelCollard]

An update for the dependencies would probably fix a lot of problems.

I always got the message: "Error while trying to send message:Error: AMQP Transport: Could not send" on every second message in a "batch". This happened when sending multiple message while the connection was not yet established. Updating the following packages fixed it for me:

• azure-iot-device
• azure-iot-device-amqp
• azure-iot-device-amqp-ws
• azure-iot-device-http
• azure-iot-device-mqtt

Is there a reason for the current way the dependencies are set up?

I'm receiving these warnings when installing the node-red-contrib-azure-iot-hub package. Is this expected?

Hi @MichelCollard - a newb question from me - how (where?) did you update the packages.json file in Linux that you mention in the first post? I understand the issue being the versioning <= which is not good.

And then did you run a command to update the below somehow?

azure-iot-device azure-iot-device-amqp azure-iot-device-amqp-ws azure-iot-device-http azure-iot-device-mqtt

I'm using NodeRed on Raspian Stretch and struggling to get this NodeRedIoTHub stable.. Any and all help appreciated! (I'm clearly not a linux guru but trying!) :)

You will have to make a new package and update the package.json. After that you can run the Install or Update command. When you are done doing this, the package needs to be reinstalled in Node-Red. You will be able to find most of the information in the Node-Red documentation. Good luck!

Sorry, I don't know. I didn't open the project since I posted this issue. If you are able to fix it, you could always make your own fork and post a new solution.
