[protobufjs] Error Cannot read property 'emptyArray' of undefined with rollup

See original GitHub issue

This project has a dependency on protobufjs

protobufjs has a known issue with rollup: https://github.com/rollup/rollup/issues/2747

Which means that projects using rollups might have build errors when using nodejs-pubsub.

I am creating this issue for 2 purposes:

To make it easier to debug the Cannot read property 'emptyArray' of undefined with rollup when it is generated,
To suggest to switch with other proto alternatives. I have been using protobuf-ts that generates type safe typescript code and look more robust that protobufjs.

@feywind it seems like rollup is working on fixing this in https://github.com/rollup/plugins/pull/658

I’ll update here when I have more info.

I’m going to close this out for now, since there’s not a big emphasis on rollup support just yet, but we’ll re-visit from the web tag later.
