mqtt.createClient is not a function

[fspasovski]

Hello,
When executing the command:
mqtt-exec -c /usr/lib/node_modules/mqtt-exec/config-example.json -h mqtt://localhost:1883
I get the next error on the line bellow:
/usr/lib/node_modules/mqtt-exec/mqtt-exec.js:49
var c = mqtt.createClient(mqtt_url.port, mqtt_url.hostname, {

TypeError: mqtt.createClient is not a function
