Error: Cannot find module './rpcbaseerrors'

[tsathis]

I was going to get started with gramjs and tried by installing gramsjs with npm for a simple nodejs project.

const { TelegramClient } = require('telegram/gramjs');
const { StringSession } = require('telegram/gramjs/sessions');

const api_id = xxxxxxx;
const api_hash = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx';
const string_session = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx...';

export function test(input: any) {
    console.log("Running test", input);
    (async () => {
        console.log('Loading interactive example...')
        const sessionName = 'anon'
        const apiId = api_id  
        const apiHash = api_hash  
        const client = new TelegramClient(new StringSession(string_session), apiId, apiHash)
        await client.connect()
        console.log('You should now be connected.')
        await client.sendMessage('me', "hi");
    })()
}

And I get the following terminal output when running it.

Error: Cannot find module './rpcbaseerrors'

what version of node are you using

[tsathis]

$ node --version
v12.20.0

[painor]

hmm it appears the npm version wasn't updated. you could try downloading the master version while I'm publishing it to npm

[tsathis]

Ok I will try it. Thank you very much for the quick replies.

[painor]

[tsathis]
