Hi team,
First, thanks for working on the Node.js client for Apache IoTDB. I’m trying
to integrate it into a TypeScript application and ran into a packaging/install
issue that I wanted to report.
## What I tried
The documentation for the GitHub repository points to:
```bash
npm install @iotdb/client
```
However, in my environment this package was **not available in the npm
registry**, so the install failed.
I then checked npm and found that the published package name currently
available is:
```bash
iotdb-client-nodejs
```
That package installs successfully with:
```bash
npm install iotdb-client-nodejs
```
But after installing it, I was not able to use it as a working runtime
dependency in my project. The module imported successfully, but the runtime
exports were effectively empty / unusable for constructing a `Session`.
## What worked as a workaround
I was able to get it working only by:
1. installing the GitHub repo directly:
```bash
npm install git+https://github.com/apache/iotdb-client-nodejs.git#<commit>
```
2. then building the package locally inside `node_modules/@iotdb/client`
3. after that, `Session` and the rest of the API became available and my
smoke tests passed
## What I’m hoping for
It would be great to have one of these clarified/fixed:
- a published npm package that matches the documented install command, or
- updated documentation that reflects the installable package and exact
usage.
## My environment
- Node.js: 24.1.0
- IoTDB: 1.3.3
- TypeScript project
- Tested against local Docker-based IoTDB deployment
If useful, I can share the exact smoke test and the steps I used to
reproduce this.
Thanks again!
