Error on start: attempt to index a non-table object(nil) with key 'String' #4

Closed MostHated closed 3 years ago

MostHated commented 3 years ago

Hello, I just installed the plugin for Micro, but I am getting the following error when trying to start it up.

~ » mi ~/.zshrc                                                                                    mosthated@pop-os
wakatime:15: attempt to index a non-table object(nil) with key 'String'
stack traceback:
    wakatime:15: in main chunk
    [G]: ?

Press enter to continue

If I attempt to enter: wakatime.apikey within the editor using ctrl+e, I get a message stating "Unknown command: wakatime.apikey"

Thanks, -MH

Which micro version are you using? ./micro --version to get info.

Although the version you're using is the latest one the maintainer didn't bump a new one yet. I suggest you to build from source to get it working as expected.

The commit we added new functions is this https://github.com/zyedidia/micro/commit/7a5f7e443a51455acb307e9212377d7cfaedefac.

Ok, that seems to have done it. I know that it's not really your fault as Micro has not had an official update in a while, but it would certainly be helpful if installing the plugin by following the listed instructions worked for the current version. If nothing else, at least a notice/note in the instructions stating the requirements.

@MostHated a note has been added. Thanks.
