[BUG] Soketi not starting on nodejs major v20

[ajaybhargav]

Description
Error: This version of uWS.js supports only Node.js 14, 16 and 18 on (glibc) Linux, macOS and Windows, on Tier 1 platforms (https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/master/BUILDING.md#platform-list).

This issue came after updating nodejs to v20

Reproduction steps
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Update nodejs to latest LTS

Expected behavior
soketi should work

Environment

• Soketi version (i.e. 1.3.0): 1.6.0
• Adapter (local, redis): redis
• App Manager (array, mysql, postgres, dynamodb) : mysql
• Queue (sqs, redis, sync): redis
• Cache Managers (memory, redis): memory

Additional context
I think uws need to upgrade to latest version to support nodejs v20. Please provide a release.

I believe that the required uWebSockets need updating on Soketi.
I have Node.js v21 and cannot install due to uWS.js only supporting Node.js 14,16 and 18.

Same problem, have to rollback to 18 LTS.
Need to upgrade the uWS dependency.

Same here. Node is at v20.10.0 LTS.
The docs are not representative -> (Node.js LTS (14.x, 16.x, so on))
This should be changed at least to show what the max node version should be

hi, is there any way to use node v20 LTS?

[ln8711]

bump!
uWebSockets.js supports node.js 20 since Oct 2023 already
https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets.js/releases/tag/v20.33.0

UPDATE:
PR here already: #1074

UPDATE 2:
To make it works, build it locally:

Clone the project
Edit package.json with "uWebSockets.js": "github:uNetworking/uWebSockets.js#v20.37.0"
Run:
    npm install uWebSockets.js
    npm run build
Start the server with:
    ./bin/server.js start

And happy holidays!

Bump again, can #1074 please get merged?
Node 18 has already reached the end of its official support a while ago and is only hanging on by a thread with maintenance releases.

Also bumping. I'll try running tests myself here soon to see if anything broke but so far after using soketi for 5 months with this updated uWebSockets I have not run into any issues.

Bumping again; desperately need this :(

Just ran into this upgrading my local dev VM to Ubuntu 22.04.3. I ended up using NVM to install Node 18 and then added /home/vagrant/.nvm/versions/node/v18.20.2/bin to be added in the PATH env variable to my Supervisord config which runs Soketi.

To expand on the comment above:

• Install Node Version Manager ("nvm"): curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.7/install.sh | bash
• . ~/bashrc to apply some path stuff the installer added.
• nvm to check it is working.
• nvm install 18
• Modify the Supervisord config in /etc/supervisor/conf.d/my-workers.conf for running soketi to: /home/vagrant/.nvm/versions/node/v18.20.2/bin/node /usr/bin/soketi start --config=/var/www/my-project/soketi.json (--config flag is optional; it's just what I already had)
