Description

  • I am on the latest Hyper.app version

  • I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate

  • OS version and name: macOS 10.13.2

  • Hyper.app version: 2.0.0-canary.8

  • Link of a Gist with the contents of your .hyper.js: https://github.com/dcalhoun/dotfiles/blob/master/hyper.js

  • Relevant information from devtools: n/a

  • The issue is reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app: No, requires a plugin to be installed.

Issue

The ability to force a check of plugin updates is no longer possible.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Launch Hyper
  2. Plugins > Update (Cmd+Shift+U)

Expected Result

Hyper attempts to update all plugins. Displays a notification with one of the following messages:

  • Restart the app or hot-reload with "View" > "Reload" to enjoy the updates!

  • No changes!

Actual Result

No notifications are displayed; Hyper seemingly does not update any plugin.

First steps

  1. Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
  2. Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
  3. Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
  4. Open a pull request that references the issue number.

Research direction

Start by comparing the plugin-update changes linked from pull request 2412, then reproduce the Cmd+Shift+U action in Hyper with a plugin installed. Trace the update path and notification handling; done means a forced update attempts all plugins and displays either the restart/hot-reload or no-changes notification described in the issue.
