You require a more recent version of Node.js.

On the Node 20 branch you require at least 20.10.0 for nodejs/node#50140.

Ok, that sucks. DSM only supports 20.9.0-1003 for now and I can't update the node.js from within HomeBridge using the hb-service command.

In that case you will need to use v1.0.3 or earlier of this plugin until Synology release an up-to-date version of Node.js. This plugin supports all Node.js LTS branches (18, 20, and the upcoming 22)… but does require a relatively recent version on each branch (at least 18.20.0 or 20.10.0).

This is due to a breaking change in Node.js 22 that was backported to the other LTS branches. Version v1.0.4 was updated for that change to fix #298.

You won’t be missing any new functionality in v1.0.4; the only change (other than updated dependencies) is the Node.js 22 compatibility. I don’t currently have any other enhancements planned until Apple update HAP (with the promised robot vacuum cleaner support).

v1.0.5 should restore compatibility with Node.js 20.9.0.
