router.get('/chats/', function(req, res){

const tmiClient = new tmi.client(options);

tmiClient.connect();
tmiClient.on('connected', onConnectedHandler);
var asdasd = tmiClient.on('message', function(target, context, msg, self){

    if (self) { return; } // Ignore messages from the bot

    // Remove whitespace from chat message
    const commandName = msg.trim();

    // If the command is known, let's execute it
    if(commandName === '!dice'){
    const num = rollDice();
    client.say(target, `You rolled a ${num}`);
    console.log(`* Executed ${commandName} command`);
    }else{
    console.log(`* Unknown command ${commandName}`);

I don't understand why you would put tmi.js in a route handler the begin with. If you want to comminate between a frontend and a backend, you should use a real-time socket like socket.io. Alternatively you could just use tmi.js on the frontend.

That's really not a tmi.js question.
