Server configuration

• Operating system: Alpine 3.8.1
• Node version (if applicable): v8.14.0
• NPM version (if applicable): 6.4.1
• tmi.js version: tmi.js@1.2.1

I kinda think the error is related to the websocket component of tmi, namely ws, it seems that npm pull an old version, that doesn't work as of today.

I tried swapping the websocket npm install by the latest version of ws.

The error is then gone, however, i can't never connect even tho my username and OAUTH token are good.

I am only just starting to get the same thing. Works on CentOS, does not work on Windows 10.

Note that just before the error, I get a console log: error: Could not connect to server. Reconnecting in 2 seconds...

I get the same TypeError that devolution gets.

EDIT: Turns out it was my work's network blocking the connection.

@MrDrummer Glad it works for you, never worked for me again after that so i switched to twich-js

Could anyone make a quick test using tmi.js@1.3.x? (And/or possibly with the current repo? (1.4))

From NPM: (1.3)

$ npm install tmi.js@1.3

or from Github: (upcoming 1.4)

$ npm install tmijs/tmi.js#1a55b00

I haven't been able to replicate this error myself, but here's a quick base that you can copy-paste if it'll help. 🙏

const tmi = require('tmi.js');
let client = new tmi.Client({
    options: { debug: true },
    identity: {
        username: '',
        password: ''
    }
});
client.connect();
