no update of content-file using python3 3.5.3

[j-b-grenouille]

in python virtaul env python3 3.5.3

[packages] lektor-simplemde = 0.5

show the correct Editor, but "save changes" don't change the ./content/contents.lr file (also If I delete ~/.cache/lektor/packages/dir-with-simplemde and force reinstall )

using python3 3.7.3 work as expected (tested on a different server)

Is there a Python version requirement?

I have the same problem, but even on Python 3.7.4 it doesn't seem to work.

Hello,

I have the same problem for few weeks, but even on Python 3.7.3 it doesn’t seem to work.

According to this thread, the issue seems be related to React >=15.6 changes. When I replace in the TEMPLATE of lektor_simplemde.py the line:

e.value = editor.value();

by this:

Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(window.HTMLTextAreaElement.prototype, 'value').set.call(e, editor.value());

it seems to work again!

I’m not fluent with React, so I will not send a patch witch could break previous versions. Please feel free doing it, thanks.

@fab2713 you are a legend, thank you, I confirm that has fixed the issue for me too.

Thanks the fix and pull!

FYI, the error comes from the version of Lektor, not Python. Lektor updated its React version in release 3.2.0.

Thanks! In order to simplify installation, is it possible to update Pypi as a 0.6 please?

New version released. Thank you for your help!
