TypeError: filter.watch is not a function

[miguelmota]

Code example is from user guide

const Eth = require('ethjs');
const eth = new Eth(new Eth.HttpProvider('http://localhost:8545'));

const filter = new eth.filter.PendingTransactionFilter()
.new()
.then((result) => {
  // result <BigNumber ...> filterId
})
.catch((error) => {
  // result null
});

const watcher = filter.watch((error, result) => {
  // result null ['0xfd234829...', '0xsf2030d1...']
});
watcher.stopWatching(cb);

filter.uninstall()
.then((result) => {
  // result true
})
.catch((error) => {
  // result null
});

Error

$ node index.js
index.js:13
const watcher = filter.watch((error, result) => {
                       ^

Fetching pending transactions doesn't work at all. Had the same problem and also did the same as you did and spent 1 whole day with it. I think this issue should be in ethjs-filter repository.

Made an issue here:
ethjs/ethjs-filter#5

Yes this should go into ethjs filter. Hmm odd, okay will run some tests tomorrow. I'm also not sure what infura and other systems support right now.
