WebSocketServer throwing UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning

Hi All,

I am building  a new Custom Visual for Google maps integrated with the api key.

 

but I am getting compilation error as

 

(node:2784) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: C:\Users\shashekh\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\powerbi-visuals-tools\node_modules\webpack-dev-server\lib\servers\WebsocketServer.js:10
  static heartbeatInterval = 1000;
                           ^

My node version is : 10.15.3

 "powerbi-visuals-api": "5.1.0",

 

Thanks for helping!

Hi @Anonymous ,

This issue is coming up even if try to create a new visual which by default gets generated when you run the command :- pbiviz new sampleVisual

as well  it is pointing to a node  module  WebsocketServer at this line :

module.exports = class WebsocketServer extends BaseServer {
  static heartbeatInterval = 1000;

Is there any specification that I need to change in my machine for this?

HI @Anonymous,

According to the error message, it seems like an 'unexpected token' appeared in your function and you haven't set any ‘try catch’ model to catch/trace the detailed error message do these code directly exited without any results.

I'd like to suggest following the error message code lines to check them and setting if statement to exclude not match value and 'try catch' model to trace detailed error message.

Regards,

Xiaoxin Sheng
