Error with official example

[page200]

When I try const Timidity = require('timidity') from the readme, I get Uncaught ReferenceError: require is not defined.

Then I browserify the example from the readme. But then it can't find libtimidity.wasm.

Then I replace

const player = new Timidity()
player.load('/my-file.mid')

by

baseUrl = 'https://bitmidi.com/timidity/'
const player = new Timidity(baseUrl)
player.load('https://bitmidi.com/uploads/16752.mid')

Then I get the warning "The AudioContext was not allowed to start. It must be resumed (or created) after a user gesture on the page.".

I click on the webpage (which works after applying browserify to bg-sound). But there's still no sound.

So how exactly can I use timidity?

[page200]

I got it to work by additionally wrapping the modified (see above) code inside setTimeout(() => {...}, 5000) and clicking on the webpage within those 5 seconds.

(Edit: That works locally in Chrome, where window.location.origin is 'file://'. In Firefox, where window.location.origin is null, its use in class Timidity causes Uncaught TypeError: URL constructor: null is not a valid URL.)

Overall, there were many successive errors and required workarounds (see also the previous post).

Please modify the example in the readme such that there are precise instructions for getting it to work.
