Class constructor X cannot be invoked without 'new'

This is intended, if you open up the file tsconfig.base.json in the master repo, you can see that the target is "es5". I don't know if you're using a git pull or trying to download from npm, but if you really want to use "es6", download the master repo, and change the target to es6 at the master repo. Or you could just download /src/core, and add the "target" and "lib" key value pairs to tsconfig.json.

Thanks! I've got it working without any issues just by switching my server target to es5 with the es2015 lib.

can you please explain that ? do i need to switch to es5 in order to use overnight ? node can understand higher syntax than that. what if a developer wants to avoid compiling to old version of the language.

I still get the error.
Does overnight support es6 ?

This is pretty disappointing since I was looking forward to using this package.
Surely everyone's using this within node, and every supported version of node supports es2015 (node 6 supports it too).
Any chance of some movement on this, I'd rather not just copy/paste this library into my project.

OvernightJS now supports es6. I closed this issue a while ago but after more requests to support es6 came in I made it to support es6.

Awesome, thanks
