WebSocketClient is not a constructor

I am using browserify to run lgtv in the browser, and lgtv uses websocket.client for communication with TV.

However, when I use the bundled .js that was given to me by browserify, I got this error: Uncaught TypeError: WebSocketClient is not a constructor

Here is some code from the bundled .js file:

var WebSocketClient = require('websocket').client; // for communication with TV
var client = new WebSocketClient();

The problematic line is this: var client = new WebSocketClient();

Can anyone help?

Guys, in browser you cannot use WebSocketClient class as it’s just for Node (it uses Node stuff not available in the browser).

In the browser you should just use the native WebSocket class. And, just if you are developing an app that must run in browser and Node and must behave as a WebSocket client, then use:

var W3CWebSocket = require(‘websocket’).w3cwebsocket;

In fact, when in the browser, such a W3CWebSocket class is just an alias to the native browser WebSocket class. And in Node it’s just a wrapper over Node-WebSocket.WebSocketClient that offers an API similar to the W3 WebSocket class in the browser.
