Uncaught TypeError: must start with number, buffer, array or string

[ajainvivek]

The error started appearing recently while seeding and downloading a file. Its not blocking anything as such but can I get to know what I am doing wrong.

Thanks,

Can you paste the rest of the error ? (The stack trace containing the lines where it happened and all)

[ajainvivek]

I am using minified version of webtorrent

c   @   webtorrent.min.js:formatted:1
i   @   webtorrent.min.js:formatted:1
n.binaryToHex   @   webtorrent.min.js:formatted:1
r._onSocketData @   webtorrent.min.js:formatted:1
r.emit  @   webtorrent.min.js:formatted:1
i   @   webtorrent.min.js:formatted:1
o.push  @   webtorrent.min.js:formatted:1
r._onMessage    @   webtorrent.min.js:formatted:1

Hope this trace makes some sense.

No, that's a false positive.

Can you post the code you wrote?

[ajainvivek]

Snippet of code:

 return new RSVP.Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
            client.add("magnet:?xt=urn:btih:" + magnetURI, function (torrent) {
                // Got torrent metadata!
                console.log('Client is downloading:', torrent.infoHash)
                callback(torrent);
                resolve(torrent.files);
            });
        });

File: https://github.com/ajainvivek/P2PDrop/blob/master/app/services/webtorrent.js
App: http://app.p2pdrop.com/

I am unable to get complete stack trace as the error seems to starts from webtorrent.min.js

[ajainvivek]

Any updates @feross ?

[ajainvivek]

Issue seems to be not happening after updating webtorrent.min.js.

Thanks

@ajainvivek Glad you got it figured out! When your app is ready, you should send a PR, or open an issue to add it to the list of WebTorrent users.
