TypeError: MyPuppet is not a constructor

[huan]

The whole Wechaty ecosystem is moving towards ES Modules and we are refactoring the modules slowly.

See:

• Support ESM module (Dual-ESM-CJS-module) Chatie/tsconfig#16

TypeError: MyPuppet is not a constructor

The above error message means that you are trying to load a non-ESM compatible puppet module.

Please file a new issue on that puppet repo to record the problem, and a link back to this issue will be welcome.

Solution

const puppet = new PuppetPadlocal()
const bot = new Wechaty({ puppet })

The above code should work as a workaround.

We have added compatible code for load CJS puppet modules in [email protected] or above versions.
