Hyperterm Cannot find module error, when installing plugins

Question

I've installed a few plugins, but getting an error with hyperterm-transparent-bg

plugins: [
  'hyperterm-material',
  'hyperterm-transparent-bg',
  'hyperterm-blink'
],

The following don't work, and I keep getting a Cannot find module error, even though my paths are correct.

• hyperterm-transparent-bg

bundle.js:1 Error: Cannot find module '/Users/leongaban/.hyper_plugins/node_modules/hyperterm-transparent-bg' at Module._resolveFilename (module.js:455:15)

I re-installed Hyperterm and it doesn't look like it can rebuild the npm-debug.log file :(

Here is the gist to the last one I had saved off.

Answer 1

Try setting the shell property in .hyper.js .

I have been having the same issue and got it fixed by setting the shell property after reading this https://github.com/zeit/hyper/issues/1513#issuecomment-281414846

Answer 2

Thanks to this answer in their repo: https://github.com/dfrankland/hyper-transparent-bg/issues/9#issuecomment-284415902

Apparently it changed to this plugin instead: https://www.npmjs.com/package/hyper-transparent

I used yarn instead of npm to install it: yarn add npm i hyper-transparent

Then in my .hyper.js config:

plugins: [
  'hyperterm-material',
  'hyperterm-blink',
  'hyper-transparent'
]

Got it working! Took me a sec to realize that the transparency controls where in the view menu of the OSX toolbar.
