Just freshly installed pully and seeing this error:

$ pully
internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:957
    throw err;

Any suggestions on how to fix?

macOS 10.15.2 npm 6.13.4 node 13.2.0

My guess is that's an error in ytdl-core. @fent Do you have any insight on this?

[fent]

this was an error in ytdl-core <= v1.0.0, it was fixed in v1.0.1

[ACyphus]

$ ytdl --version
1.1.0

I've also tried running:

$ npm install -g ytdl-core@latest

updated 1 package in 0.441s

I'm still getting the same error though. How can I ensure I'm using the fixed version of ytdl-core?

[jimbuck]

Feel free to make a PR updating pully. I can test it later today and release it to npm.

@ACyphus Just a guess, but try navigating to your global node_modules directory and find pully. Within there try running npm i ytdl-core@latest. Then run the pully command.

@jimbuck I'm not super familiar with node. I'm presuming this requires updating the ytdl-core dependency in pully-core? https://github.com/jimbuck/pully-core/blob/master/package.json#L38

I still get the same error when running pully though.

[jimbuck]

@ACyphus Thanks for trying that. I should have some time tonight (6'ish hours from now) to update the references on everything and test it all. I'll post any updates here.

[ACyphus]

Thanks @jimbuck ✨ absolutely no rush from my side by the way

[jimbuck]

Just FYI, this is still on my mind, I will take a stab at it tonight.

pully-core is now updated. Working on updating pully next.

[MicroDroid]

er I don't even know what pully is but I have a browser extension that uses ytdl-core and apparently updating to the latest version (which is a new major) solved the issue for me

[SpoOkyJelle]

I still have the same error, tried installing the latest ytdl but this gave me the same warning messages as @ACyphus.

[fent]

$ ytdl --version
1.1.0

I've also tried running:

$ npm install -g ytdl-core@latest

I'm still getting the same error though. How can I ensure I'm using the fixed version of ytdl-core?

don't install a node library globally. node will prioritize local modules over global ones.

if you want to debug this more, look at your package-lock.json file and see any entries for ytdl-core and what is requiring an older version, if anything.

[colshacol]

Temporary fix.

cp -r ./node_modules/m3u8stream/dist ./node_modules/m3u8stream/lib

[qnxdev]

in /node_modules/ytdl-core/lib/index.js change 'm3u8stream/lib/parse-time to 'm3u8stream/dist/parse-time

[vinceTheProgrammer]

I think the latest tag reference a version that depends on the 0.7.2 release of pully-core which depends on the 0.28.0 release of ytdl-core, which incorrectly references m3u8stream/lib/parse-time instead of m3u8stream/dist/parse-time.

Could this mean that anyone who installs pully using npm i pully will get a broken version? That's what happened to me, but I don't know for sure.

Is the solution for the maintainer to create a new tag that references a version of pully that has the up to date dependencies?
