@williamli Is it all stack trace? Do you have a gist with the code to identify the problem? It's hard to see the problem with this setup for me right now.
Btw. are you using it in the frontend?

I'm also getting this error. Looks like an issue with the ws dependency?

Hi! I was hoping this would have something figured out. Anyone know how to fix this? using register(false) and register(true) have the same error.

I am going to look into figuring it out because I'm running out of options, and this was my last hope - needing it for a nativescript-vue app that has dependencies trying to use the window object (third party vendors).

I will post my updates soon if it helps anyone.

I updated the libraries. That might help. If anyone will have this issue please get reach me out (page in my profile) for a fast solving issue.
