UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: Cannot read property 'contents' of undefined

See original GitHub issue

I got the error when start fetching the chat. It says…

(node:2864) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: Cannot read property 'contents' of undefined
    at LiveChat.fetchChat (webpack:///./node_modules/youtube-chat/dist/live-chat.js?:50:34)
    at processTicksAndRejections (internal/process/task_queues.js:97:5)
(node:2864) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection. This error originated either by throwing inside of an async function without a catch block, or by rejecting a promise which was not handled with .catch(). To terminate the node process on unhandled promise rejection, use the CLI flag `--unhandled-rejections=strict` (see https://nodejs.org/api/cli.html#cli_unhandled_rejections_mode). (rejection id: 18)

I don’t know what part is the content means. Any suggestions?

Note: This message has been translated by DeepL.

On January 29, YouTube seems to have changed the URL used for JSON retrieval to　https://www.youtube.com/youtubei/v1/live_chat/get_live_chat?key={innertubeApiKey}.

You need to find the innertubeApiKey in the source code of the delivery page you are playing. It does not appear to be possible to retrieve the JSON in one step currently.

There is a great fork at IcedCoffeee/youtube-chat@3e20049 that may have fixed this problem. I’ve used it with the NodeCG bundle and it seems to work fine. Thanks IcedCoffeee!
