How to resolve this error: splunkjs.ProxyHttp is not a constructor?

Hi, I am trying to use splunk sdk javascript and I have searched online for this but came up with no answers. I have followed the tutorial in splunk for setting up the sdk and trying to log in with 

var service = new splunkjs.Service

 however this gives me the error of a web instance is required.

I found a solution to this is to add

var http = new splunkjs.ProxyHttp("/proxy")

 but this gives me the error

splunkjs.ProxyHttp is not a constructor

why is this happening?
