    'MY_TAU_API_TOKEN'
  );
  tau.connect();

  tau.follows.subscribe((event) => {
    console.log(

Then use via import or require

import { TauClient } from '@prosingularity/tau-js';
// alternatively use require()
// const { TauClient }  = require('@prosingularity/tau-js');

const port = 8000;
const secretTauApiToken = 'MY_SECRET_TOKEN';
const uri = `ws://localhost:${port}/ws/twitch-events/`;

const tau = new TauClient(uri, secretTauApiToken);
tau.connect();

tau.follows.subscribe((event) => {
  console.log(
    `❤️ ❤️ ❤️ Thanks for following @${event.event_data.user_name}. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️`
  );
