Invalid register parameters "value" must be a hapi-auth-jwt2 object

Question

I get a strange error Invalid register options "value" must be an objectwhenever I try to start my hapi server. It seems I can not understand this problem. This is my code:

await server.register(require('hapi-auth-jwt2'), (err) => {
            if (err) console.log(err);

            server.auth.strategy('jwt', 'jwt', {
                key: secretKey,
                verifyOptions: { algorithms: ['HS256'] }
            });

            glob.sync('api/**/routes/*.js', {
                root: __dirname
            }).forEach(file => {
                const route = require(path.join(__dirname, file));
                server.route(route);
            });
        }).catch(err => {
            console.log(err);
        });

I tried this too and I still get the error:

const options = {
            key: secretKey,
            verifyOptions: { algorithms: ['HS256'] }
        };

await server.register({
            register: require('hapi-auth-jwt2'),
            options
        }, (err) => {
            if (err) console.log(err);
            // We're giving the strategy both a name
            // and scheme of 'jwt'
            server.auth.strategy('jwt', 'jwt', {
                key: secretKey,
                verifyOptions: { algorithms: ['HS256'] }
            });

            glob.sync('api/**/routes/*.js', {
                root: __dirname
            }).forEach(file => {
                const route = require(path.join(__dirname, file));
                server.route(route);
            });
        }).catch(err => {
            console.log(err);
        });

Does anyone know what this error is? Is it just that it is hapi-auth-jwt2not updated with Hapi v17? If so, I tried changing the version of the dependencies to salzhrani/hapi-auth-jwt2#v-17as indicated in https://github.com/dwyl/hapi-auth-jwt2/pull/249

I also tried the interim fix at https://github.com/dwyl/hapi-auth-jwt2/issues/248 with no luck.

It looks like you are not providing a validateFunc option function .
