dependency not found installing @blockstack/stacks-transactions

[dantrevino]

Trying to just add the first example line in the README to a vue app built with webpack. I've removed node_modules and reinstalled everything with both yarn, and then npm. I've removed node_modules then run npm cache verify and yarn cache clean, but no matter what I do I get the dependency not found error.

In my component:

import {
  createStacksPrivateKey,
  makeRandomPrivKey,
  getPublicKey,
} from "@blockstack/stacks-transactions";
const BigNum = require("bn.js");

When building, I get the following:

 ERROR  Failed to compile with 1 errors                                                                    1:14:50 AM

This dependency was not found:

* @blockstack/stacks-transactions in ./node_modules/babel-loader/lib??ref--1-0!./node_modules/@quasar/app/node_module
s/vue-loader/lib??vue-loader-options!./src/pages/Wallet.vue?vue&type=script&lang=js&

To install it, you can run: npm install --save @blockstack/stacks-transactions

@dantrevino can you check if you're importing the latest alpha version of the transaction lib? if you're not specifying the version, npm will import an old version.

Hopefully we'll have this fixed on the stable release later today.

Here's the latest alpha: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@blockstack/stacks-transactions/v/0.3.0-alpha.5

[dantrevino]

Fixed by manually changing the version in package.json to '^0.3.0-alpha.5'. h/t @friedger

Thanks for the update @yknl @reedrosenbluth

We published v0.4.0 to latest on NPM which should resolve this problem.
