adding the neopixel package to makecode for calliope breaks makecode

[tilmanmichaeli]

When adding the neopixel-package on https://makecode.calliope.cc/, no program (even without using any of the packages blocks etc.) transferred to the calliope mini will work.

Hello BNeuner

did you get any comment from calliope support about your ticket? We are seeing the same problem, and send them a ticket, but so far no response...

[tilmanmichaeli]

no, no update regarding this (yet)...

[dqtm]

Until last week we had a workaround for this issue, which was to manually change the upload of the neopixel library, and take an older version of the library. But now even this workaround is no longer working...

Which editor are you using makecode.calliope.cc ? We have released a fix today.

[dqtm]

Yes Pelikhan, we use makecode.calliope.cc Just checked now and get currently the following version numbers in the editor:

"Über calliope mini" A Blocks / JavaScript code editor for the calliope mini. calliope mini Version: 1.0.25 Microsoft MakeCode Version: 0.18.5 C++ runtime Version: v2.0.0-rc8-calliope-1.0.3

And all these versions are from April.2018 or older...

How can we get the fix you released today?

[pelikhan]

It should be fixed in 1.0.26 . Did you browser update?

[tilmanmichaeli]

Seems like 1.0.26 isn't deployed yet, for me it's still .25 with various browsers.

Hello BNeuner, through another ticket, we got the hint to access the updated version via the link: https://makecode.calliope.cc/beta Here you have version 1.0.26 Seems good, we are carrying further tests (:o)
