Type Error: Cannot read property 'prototype' of undefined

terminalcommand commented 6 years ago

I'm using arch linux, just installed how2 via npm. I'm using npm version 6.0.0. I've installed how2@1.5.0.

Whenever, I try to use it, I get the following error:

$ how2 -l swift reverse a list
/usr/lib/node_modules/how2/node_modules/devnull/transports/transport.js:59
Transport.prototype.__proto__ = EventEmitter.prototype;
                                             ^

Hi @terminalcommand, thank you for the report. This issue was discussed in #79 and is currently solved on GitHub. In the README we still point to how2 NPM repo, while the updated one is how-2.

TL;DR;

npm uninstall -g how2
npm i -g how-2
