Code

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

Server

✓ import { Server } from 'cb-hyperion'

✗ const Server = require('cb-hyperion').Server

The package uses CommonJS, but if using ESM, named import works.

hyperion (default)

✓ const hyperion = require('cb-hyperion')

✗ import hyperion from 'cb-hyperion'

The package does not have a default export; use require or named import.

Server (require)

✓ const { Server } = require('cb-hyperion')

✗ const Server = require('cb-hyperion').server

Capitalization matters: 'Server' not 'server'.

Basic WebSocket server with broadcast and method registration using cb-hyperion.

const { Server } = require('cb-hyperion'); const server = new Server(8080); const allBroadcast = server.registerBroadcast('all'); server.registerMethod('join', function(ws){ allBroadcast.addTarget(ws); console.log('joined all'); }); server.registerMethod('send', function(ws, msg){ allBroadcast.send(msg); console.log('sending to all:'+msg); }); server.on('connection', function(ws) { console.log('client connected'); }); console.log('Server running on port 8080');

fix

Consider migrating to ws or socket.io for modern needs.

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaThe package only works with io.js >=1.4.0, not modern Node.js.

fix

Use an older Node.js version or switch to a different package.

affects: >=1.0.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Error: Cannot find module 'cb-hyperion'

Package not installed.

fix

Run 'npm install cb-hyperion' in your project directory.

TypeError: Server is not a constructor

Incorrect import; using default import instead of named.

fix

Use 'const { Server } = require('cb-hyperion');'

ReferenceError: WebSocket is not defined

Missing WebSocket implementation; cb-hyperion provides its own but expects a global.

fix

Ensure you are running in an environment with WebSocket support (Node.js with ws polyfill or browser).
