Unexpected token

[hooger]

Hello,

I try to register the service but does not really work. Here is the problem:

>> node index.js -r -u "http://localhost:8090"

User is the same as the one I generated the token with and for. python3 hangups_client.py --login-and-save-token didn't worked, but I used OAuth, and I think it is okay, as hangups --manual loads and shows my contacts. ~/.cache/hangups/refresh_token.txt has a 45 letter long token with no trailing new line.

Do you have any idea what the problem can be? System is Debian 9, up-to-date. matrix-puppet-facebook works.
Thank you for your help in advance!

same issue on ubuntu 18.04, fresh install when trying to generate hangouts-registration.yaml file with node index.js -r -u "http://127.0.0.1:8090"

@hooger @ericmigi , would you both run node --version? This could be caused by an old node version (node 10 is known to work, we expect node 8 does too, but no earlier version, and node is packaged strangely on Debian-based distributions by default)

[ericmigi]

root@matrix-synapse:~# node -v
v8.10.0

@hooger @ericmigi Would you pull the latest master, which includes that commit up there, and test again?

I was able to reproduce this on node 8, using the REPL in Docker's official node 8 image:

> docker run -i -t --rm node:8-alpine node

> try {
...   var data = JSON.parse(str);
...   debugVerbose("emitting message", data);
...   this.emit('message', data);
... } catch {
} catch {
        ^

SyntaxError: Unexpected token {

>

I've gathered that, while try { } catch { } works in node 10 and node 11, try { } catch(error) { } is required in node 8, so I've added the parameter to appease it.

(Heard that this was working outside my REPL, woo!)

My node is 9.x and it works for me as well.
Thank you for the help!
