Hosted events not working.

[darektion]

Code snippet: client.on('hosted', onHostedHandler); ... function onHostedHandler(target, username, viewers, autohost) { var type = (autohost) ? 'autohost' : 'host'; var trailing = (viewers >= 2) ? ', with ${viewers} viewers' : ''; console.log(${username} just ${type}ed the channel${trailing}!); }

Actual behaviour: Seeing that I am not getting a proper response from hosted events, I tried doing a console.log within the function. No logs generated for hosted events.

Expected behaviour: E.g. Incoming host from darektbot with 3 viewers, to my channel (darektion). onHostedHandler(#darektion, darektbot, 3, false); Log: darektbot just hosted the channel, with 3 viewers!

Additional comments: The other events like the handling of raids, chat messages and cheer events work as expected, except for host events - am I the only one with this problem right now? The parameters that I am using is based on version 1.4.2's documentation on "hosted" events: https://docs.tmijs.org/v1.4.2/Events.html#hosted

Server configuration

• Operating system: Windows 10
• Node version (if applicable): 10.15.3
• NPM version (if applicable): 6.9.0
• tmi.js version: 1.4.2

Note: I am unsure why the opening single quote (left single quotation mark) is not showing inside my console.log statement above. There is no formatting error in my console.log within the program.

I cannot definitively say that Twitch is still sending host events over IRC.

Is your client's identity the same as the channel being hosted? (As in the bot is logged in as the broadcaster)

[darektion]

No, my bot is a separate user. The bot has its own identity, and joins the broadcaster's channel.

[AlcaDesign]

It will not receive hosting events unless it's authorized as the broadcaster.

From the docs you linked: "This event is fired only if you are logged in as the broadcaster."
