Uncaught Error: Cannot find module '_process'

See original GitHub issue

Version: 6.0.6 engine.io: 1.8.2 Environment:

Operating system: MacOSX
Browser: Chrome
Node.js: 5.12.0

Expected result: Client should load in browser without any issues

Actual result: Getting errors in browser console

primus.js:3529 Uncaught Error: Cannot find module '_process'(…)

The client library is served by Primus

<script type="text/javascript" src="/primus/primus.js" ></script>

I also see the following message on client console:

Uncaught (in promise) Error: Missing required `engine.io-client` module. Please run `npm install --save engine.io-client`(…)   Line 3183

if (!factory) return primus.critical(new Error(  //<--3183

I’ve already run npm install --save engine.io-client on server side and inside node_modules/primus/ and restarted server

Steps to reproduce: Just upgraded to 6.0.6 and engine.io to 1.8.2

The issue has been introduced with https://github.com/socketio/engine.io-client/pull/520.

In https://github.com/primus/primus/commit/f790c8ee339580d3808f0e4d718f0a46b875f625 I’ve added a browserify transform to remove all debug occurrences from the Engine.IO client and excluded debug from the bundle. This also helps reducing the library size.

Thanks for reporting.
