Reference Error: self is not defined #7

Closed jjspierx closed 6 years ago

jjspierx commented 6 years ago

I am running into a reference error "self is not defined" error anytime the code tries to access the properties of "self". What is "self" exactly? I thought self was only used in Javascript where the client is a browser, and self refers to the window. In a Node.js app I am not sure what "self" is. I tried replacing self with "this", but "this" does not have the properties that "self" has.

I am using the latest code from here, not the NPM package.

Nevermind, I was somehow using an old version and I also realized there was already an issue for this.
