Connecting to Chat

First, you have to create an auth provider instance, as outlined in the Twitch API client documentation.

Then, using that instance, you create a new ChatClient instance, listen to events and connect it to the Twitch Chat server.

Channel names are case insensitive and can start with a # or not. The name will be converted to the correct format internally.

import { ChatClient } from 'twitch-chat-client';

const chatClient = new ChatClient(authProvider, { channels: ['lidlrini'] });
// listen to more events...
await chatClient.connect();

Please note that you should use onRegister to do things after the registration with the chat server finishes. This documentation previously recommended using the method waitForRegistration which is fine at first but will not rejoin channels (or redo whatever else you do after connecting) when a reconnect occurs.
