We will try to release fixes for issues as we discover them. Try updating to the latest version if you encounter any issues:
twilio plugins:uninstall @twilio-labs/plugin-signal2021
twilio plugins:install @twilio-labs/plugin-signal2021@latestThe SIGNAL Developer Mode prompts you for your SIGNAL 2021 credentials. These are not your regular Twilio credentials.
To check if you are using the right credentials, try logging into signal.twilio.com/login.
The "download & setup" option will only show up if we were able to detect git running on your system. It has to be part of your PATH for us to detect it. You can still use the "view source" option to open the relevant GitHub project and download it from there.
Right now we are only supporting installing dependencies in Node.js projects. For any other programming languages you'll have to manually installed the dependencies. Check the README.md file of the project that was created by SIGNAL Developer Mode for relevant instructions.
We tried to test as many terminal sizes as possible and will adjust the content according to your terminal size. In some edge cases it might still cause odd rendering. Try resizing your terminal window size or your font size. If that does not fix the issue, [report an issue][#reporting-an-issue].
SIGNAL Developer Mode uses a React-based framework called ink. The way it renders output can cause flickering in some terminal applications. If we detect you are using a terminal that has a bad flickering problem we'll turn off animations which will reduce the amount of flickering. However, any interaction itself might still cause flickering.
Reducing the terminal size can improve the situation in some terminals. Some of the terminals that we found that were doing a good job of not flickering are: Hyper, the built-in macOS Terminal.app and cmder on Windows.
If animations were not turned off automatically or you'd want to turn them off explicitly, you can set an environment variable of FORCE_ANIMATION to the value of 0. In Linux and macOS you can do this by running:
export FORCE_ANIMATION=0
twilio signal2021For a guide for Windows checkout this article on setting environment variables.
By default we are coloring the output of SIGNAL Developer Mode. You can turn that off at any point by setting an environment variable with the key FORCE_COLOR and the value 0. In Linux and macOS you can do this by running:
export FORCE_COLOR=0
twilio signal2021For a guide for Windows checkout this article on setting environment variables.
You can turn this off by setting the following environment variable SIGNAL_NO_UTM to True. For example in Linux or macOS:
export SIGNAL_NO_UTM=True
twilio signal2021For a guide for Windows checkout this article on setting environment variables.
You can also set SIGNAL_NO_DIAGNOSTICS=True to not send anonymous diagnostics information.

There are two pieces of information that you can give us to better help you tracking down the issue.
- Please provide us with the diagnostics information that will be output when you run
twilio signal2021 --diagnostics -o=json. - Additionally a screenshot of the issue, if possible, can be useful.
- During the debugging you might be asked to run
twilio signal2021 -l debug, which will stop overriding your content to display any errors that might be output. It will also tell you before logging in, where you can find the full log file as you might be asked for that.
