New to Node-red and home assistant. I have everything running in a docker container with no issues but when I try to load "node-red-contrib-home-assistant-websocket" I get the following error and I don't know where to start troubleshooting this. Any help or pointers would be appreciated.

You should ask this one on either the HA Webscoket thread or in the github for it as you will get more responses over there
