Hi all!

I just ran the commands for Slack 4.0.2 and the colors are exactly the same. Any recommendations?

At the end of the process I can see in the terminal:

npx: installed 21 in 3.054s
promisify is not a function

Done! After executing this script restart Slack for changes to take effect.

Thanks!

@daspuru try these instructions: https://github.com/LanikSJ/slack-dark-mode#usage

Hi @LanikSJ, thanks, but I followed the instructions with no success.. One thing to notice is that I got this message: promisify is not a function.

Please look at this screenshot:

I already tried: npm install util.promisify

In Slack, Help -> Troubleshooting -> Clear Cache and Restart.

Can't help you with your promisify error message. I'm not familiar with it.

@daspuru What version of node are you running? I believe pomisify() fn was introduced in utils package starting with node v8.

$ node -v

@demisx Version is v7.9.0

@LanikSJ Cleaning cache is not working.

Thanks all

You need to update your NodeJS to at least latest LTS.

@LanikSJ Thanks for the update, those instructions worked

Using the instructions my terminal session on my Mac just hangs for 3-5 minutes. Once or twice I got a "Socket is not connected" error or something of the like. Otherwise it just hangs and nothing happens. Slack is closed, tried running using sudo and without.

Slack now supports Dark Mode natively: https://slackhq.com/dark-mode-for-slack-desktop

@a7madgamal if you could update the first post to reflect this. 😎

How does one remove/uninstall the dark mode content we've been tooling around with using git?
