Doesn't seem to work with Typescript

Bug Report

When running a spec, I see this error pop up for every test.

I've added require('cypress-dark') to my cypress/support/index.ts to no avail.

• Cypress 3.1.0
• macOS 10.14
• Dark mode is available in Cypress test runner
• Receive an error running any spec

@brandonb927 thank you for trying this out :)

So I have JS spec example (without TS transpile) here https://github.com/bahmutov/cypress-dark-example and it works as is. To find where the problem happens (since there are some hoops to jump to get to the "right" CSS file), could you modify that project so I can see what happens in your situation? and if you want to fix https://github.com/bahmutov/cypress-dark/blob/master/src/utils.js#L7 then it would be even better :)

@bahmutov thanks, I downloaded the project and have a minimal project for ts compilation working. I will push up what I have to my fork when I get a chance :)

I saw you forked it - looking forward, don’t rush cause I don’t know when I will have time to get to it unfortunately

Any update with this issue? I am running into the exact same issue and would like to see how this can be accomplished.

I've yet to actually dive into this as it's super low priority for me. Feel free to take it on!

This issue seems totally related to https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/4352

For a simple workaround you can modifiy the themeFileName passed into cy.readFile() inside of /src/utils.js to not be a relative path.

So cy.readFile("/node_modules/cypress-dark/src/dark.css") fails

Where cy.readFile("node_modules/cypress-dark/src/dark.css") succeeds

I would love to be able to use dark theme out of the box with newer versions of Cypress.

The problem of this issue is nit TS, but that node_modules is not a sibling to cypress directory https://github.com/bahmutov/cypress-dark/issues/160
