Error with coffeescript syntax

[lapwat]

Hi,

When I npm install hangupsjsI get
node_modules/hangupsjs/src/auth.coffee:32:49: error: unexpected -> class AuthError extends Error then constructor: -> super ^^

If I install coffescript via brew or npm, I get the same error.
I think this has something to do with ES6 syntax of coffescript. Does it support it ? Which version should I install ?

Thank you all

Hey , It is because of the coffeescript version use older version of coffee compiler v1.12.7

[jimmywarting]

Drop coffee script and switch to es7...

@jimmywarting and how can i do that when install?
@esinanturan i switch to version 1.12.7 and 1.9 but dons`t work.

@lesimoes

I am affraid I didn't...

Try installing an older version of coffeescript like @esinanturan suggested. Version 1.12.7 worked on my Arch.

$ sudo npm uninstall -g coffeescript
$ sudo npm install -g coffeescript@1.12.7
$ coffee -v
#CoffeeScript version 1.12.7
$ sudo npm install hangupsjs

The above error is dropped but another permission error popped up. Let me know if you figured it out or create an issue.

Best,

                                                ^^

this is not only old and deprecated, this is non-transpiled coffee-script code, I didn't get 1.12.7 to work :(
