Uncaught Error Error: Failed to get the VQD for query "node.js".

[jmgaooo]

The response.body of getVQD() method is empty, resulting in an exception thrown by exports.VQD_REGEX.exec(response.body)[1]: Uncaught TypeError TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading '1').
How can this issue be resolved?

I couldn't reproduce the issue, it still works fine. if it doesn't work for some people, probably try providing the response whenever you request https://duckduckgo.com/?q=node.js&ia=web.

Suprisingly, I find that npm:[email protected] works well and steadily if you are using javascript.
Before that I've tried "@langchain/community/tools/duckduckgo_search", npm:duck-duck-scrapeandnpm:[email protected], which all failed.

Same issue with me, should I provide you a screenshot of the request you sent?

@Snazzah I just wonder if the news is responsed empty by DDG cause the error?

[Tomas2D]
