Before, I had 100% trust in Twitch API. 3.0.5 introduced several checks, if something goes wrong with Twitch. So answer is yes, such errors could produce exceptions.

Version 3.1.0

New version is available. Summary: improved UX for a Client ID. Also validation method is changed.

• Add validation for a Client ID as a separate action
• Add ability to save any Client ID
• Change Client ID validation method

@Nicolas, thanks for the work on this! My members love it!

I ran into an error today that crashed my NodeBB instance. The error appears to come from Twitch Monitor:

13/12 09:57 [30258] - error: [plugins/twitch-monitor] Error has occurred, can not get streams resource, code: 500
node_redis: Deprecated: The ZRANK command contains a "null" argument.
This is converted to a "null" string now and will return an error from v.3.0 on.
Please handle this in your code to make sure everything works as you intended it to.
Unhandled rejection ReplyError: EXECABORT Transaction discarded because of previous errors.

@teh_g no, error is not from a Twitch Monitor.

After this error notification:

13/12 09:57 [30258] - error: [plugins/twitch-monitor] Error has occurred, can not get streams resource, code: 500

Twitch monitor schedules next update. There is no work with a database.

@Nicolas I've been running into a ton of errors from the Twitch plugin lately. It actually caused the NodeBB process to full on die eventually. Here is the error that has been happening:

26/4 13:27:19 [20245] - error:  TypeError: Cannot read property 'forEach' of null

I'll update and monitor.

[teh_g]

Things have been looking good @Nicolas

As a note, I upgrade to 1.5 and am seeing the following warning, 8/5 14:14:06 [18121] - warn: [widgets.render] passing a string is deprecated!, filter:widget.render:ns_twitch_monitor. Please set hookData.html in your plugin.

What can I say, I'm an early adopter with not too many plugins
