Application can't resolve nats dependency

[cardiogramx]

Observed behavior

I installed nats via npm i nats but whenever I run my app, I get the following error

./node_modules/nats/lib/src/mod.js Module not found: Can't resolve 'stream/web' in '/Users/desktop/myapp/node_modules/nats/lib/src'

Expected behavior

private readonly codec = StringCodec();

send = async <TOut, Tin>(subject: string, payload: Tin): Promise<TOut> => {
    const connection: NatsConnection = await connect(this.brokerOptions);
    const result = await connection.request(subject, JSON.stringify(payload), { timeout: 1000 })
        .then((m) => this.codec.decode(m.data))
        .then((data) => <TOut>JSON.parse(data));
    connection.close();
    return result;
};

Server and client version

nats version: "2.21.0"

node version: 16.17.1

npm version: 8.15.0

Host environment

stream/web is not part of the nats library.... so not sure what your bundler is doing, if you are just getting started and this is something that you are going to run on the browser, you should look at:

https://github.com/nats-io/nats.js

and

https://github.com/nats-io/nats.js/blob/main/runtimes.md#running-in-the-browser

@aricart I traced the issue to this line here

nats.node/src/mod.ts

Line 34 in 93747de

const streams = require("stream/web");

I may be doing it all wrong or using the wrong nats-io version, I am only trying to send request to NAT servers inside my React application, please point me the right direction.

@cardiogramx can you use the 3.x libraries?
