Reveal.getConfig is not a function

[SylvainSimplonGit]

Hi,
I upgraded reveal.js to v4.0.1 and now I've this message in browser console :

VM2524 external.js:28 Uncaught TypeError: Reveal.getConfig is not a function
    at VM2524 external.js:28
    at VM2524 external.js:193

My configuration in index.html :

<script src="../reveal.js/plugin/external/external.js"></script>
 ...
<script>
Reveal.initialize({
dependencies: [
{
   src: '../reveal.js/plugin/external/external.js',
   condition: function () {
      return !!document.querySelector('[data-external],[data-external-replace]');
   }
},
...
]
...
});
</script>

Have you an idea ?

Hi,
it seems that Reveal.getConfig should also be working in Reveal.js Version > 4.0.0. Could you maybe provide an online demo of this error?

Hi,
I'm sorry but I can't host my presentation. Do you know a free temporary host?

[janschoepke]

Hi,
maybe you could try some services like jsfiddle.net or similar ones. Just put in an example presentation.

I did not manage to launch my code on stackblitz but you can find it either:

• https://github.com/SylvainSimplonGit/reveal.js-external
• https://stackblitz.com/edit/js-ihakns

the error message :
VM2690 external.js:28 Uncaught TypeError: Reveal.getConfig is not a function

Had the same issue and managed to work around the problem by using dependencies to register the plugin rather than plugins:

Reveal.initialize({
  // ...
  dependencies: [{
    src: 'node_modules/reveal_external/external/external.js', 
    condition: function() { 
       return !!document.querySelector( '[data-external],[data-external-replace]' ); 
     } 
  }, ],
});

From the documentation it seems they changed the API for plugins, so this plugin would actually need to be adapted.

@SirkoS , this is that i did, see my first comment. And it's not working for me.

Hi Jan -
Do you have plans to update reveal_external to Reveal.js v4? Would you be open to collaboration?
Thanks =)

Hi textreme,
currently I sadly don't have any time maintaining this repository. I am totally open to contributions! If you should have any improvements, you can easily send me a push request.
