so please how can i fix that ?

I think the issue is due to old Node.js version used to develop this

[domesticmouse]

Unfortunately I don't have time to bring this codebase up to date. Sorry!

/cc @amuramoto

[frobinsonj]

@domesticmouse Would a downgrade of Node.js work? If so, what version would be required?

[domesticmouse]

I think this was built on node 6. I'd strongly suggest bringing it up to speed with the latest node due to security fixes in node and npm.

[frobinsonj]

I plan to bring it up to date. It would just be useful to have a working version to start with. Thanks for the help :)

[sankthetester]

@frobinsonj any luck updating the Transport Tracker code-base to current node version?

this would actually be a superb solution if it can be made to work!
