TypeError is not a function

I'm currently playing around with Nodes.js and creating a simple bot as a proof on concept. I'm using the discord.js package.

I have the following codes

// FluffBot class initialisation
var FluffBot = function Constructor(settings, commands) {
    this.settings = settings
    this.commands = commands
}

// Run bot
FluffBot.prototype.run = function() {
    discord = new discord.Client()
    discord.loginWithToken(this.settings.bot_token)
    discord.on('ready', function(event) {
        FluffBot._onReady(event)
    })
}

// On ready function
FluffBot.prototype._onReady = function(event) {
    discord.setPlayingGame('Alpha v1.0')
    this.watcher()
}

I am initiating the run function in another js file but am getting the following error

TypeError: FluffBot._onReady is not a function at Client.<anonymous>

Any ideas on getting it to call the function would be awesome.

Are you sure FluffBot is is instantiated with the new keyword?

You could add this to prevent:

if (!(this instanceof FluffBot)) {
  return new FluffBot()
}
