The require() call is part of Node.js used to include modules for use. If you are trying to instantiate ForerunnerDB on the client-side or in a browser you need to include the file ./dist/fdb-all.min.js instead (which is included in the ForerunnerDB download) as described in the documentation here: https://github.com/Irrelon/ForerunnerDB#use-forerunnerdb-in-browser

In the index.html of your AngularJS app, put this in the <head> section before your angular scripts but after jQuery and other third party libraries:

<script src="./forerunnerdb/dist/fdb-all.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Make sure you change the path of the file to wherever you have put ForerunnerDB.
