Self is not defined - Bugsnag/js

Steps to reproduce

1. I was trying to add bugsnag to my node api and i was following the steps mentioned here https://docs.bugsnag.com/platforms/javascript/
2. Everything was working normally but suddenly i ran into this error when i started my hapi server with npm start
3. See error

Environment

• Bugsnag version: 7.16.2

• Server framework version (if any):

  • Hapi ^16.0.3:

• Node version : 14.19.1

• Device : Apple M1 Pro macbook pro

I did not do anything crazy with the setup. I just installed bugsnag -> created a project in bugnsag dashboard -> went on with the steps mentioned in the docs.

Code:

var Bugsnag = require('@bugsnag/js');
 Bugsnag.start({
      apiKey: process.env.BUGSNAG_NOTIFIER_KEY,
      appVersion: require('../package.json').version
    });

Error messages:

ReferenceError · self is not defined

hi @sayo96 - we’re struggling to see a mechanism by which this would occur, perhaps an IntelliCode plugin or similar autocompleted the require statement in your IDE? I found the original error in your Bugsnag dashboard and it looks like this occurred in a local development environment?

I’m going to close this issue for now as the issue looks to be transient, but if you see this again and are able to provide us with a cut-down reproduction example demonstrating the issue we’d be more than happy to look into this further. Feel free to send this to [e-mail] 👍

hi @sayo96 - do you require Bugsnag inside your server/controllers/tasks.js file too? It looks like you’re using @bugsnag/browser there which I think is where the issue lies. Could you update this to the following instead to see if that fixes the issue for you?

var Bugsnag = require('@bugsnag/js');
