Protractor: Failed: protractor.getInstance is not a function

Question

I have installed protractor globally, and after locally.
I am using this code:

var protractor = require('protractor');
var ptor, driver;
ptor.switchTo().frame(driver.findElement(protractor.By.tagName("iframe")));
driver.findElement(protractor.by.css(".cke_editable")).sendKeys("123");

And get this message:

Failed: protractor.getInstance is not a function

What am I do wrong?

P.S. I havn't "lib/protractor.js", only "bin/protractor".

Answer 1

Wherever you are using var ptor = protractor.getInstance(), just get the driver from the browser

var browser = require("protractor").protractor.browser;
var driver = browser.driver;
