getFingerprint() is not a function

Instantiated new ClientJS() is missing an exposed getFingerPrint() method for version 0.1.11 retrieved from npm. When called, there is a TypeError: client.getFingerprint is not a function exception thrown. Version 0.1.10 works properly, so using this as a temporary solution for now.

The only exposed methods for 0.1.11 are as follows:

getBrowser
getCPU
getDevice
getEngine
getOS
getResult
getUA
setUA

Importing clientjs like this helps

import 'clientjs';
...

// if you use eslint or tslint, you should ignore the next line
var client = new ClientJS();
if (client.getFingerprint()) {
// dosomething...
}

For anyone else reading this, the reason it’s being troublesome is because this library was built to include directly into the browser, not imported. The file wraps all of its functions in a self-executing function (client.js:L130), and has no exports like a node module would.

You can work around it importing without naming, as @sasivarnan suggested.

import 'clientjs'
const client = ClientJS() // eslint-disable-line no-undef
