Pixi v5 Spritesheets don't work

[CloverFeywilde]

Picture of the Error I'm Experiencing

Expected Behavior

Creating and accessing a spritesheet using PIXI 5.1 and following the documentation exactly:
http://pixijs.download/release/docs/PIXI.Spritesheet.html

PIXI.Loader.shared.add("sprites/spritesheet.json")
    .load(spriteSetup)
    .load(startup);

function spriteSetup(){
    sheet = PIXI.Loader.shared.resources["sprites/spritesheet.json"].spritesheet;
}
function startup(){
    bunny = new PIXI.Sprite(sheet.textures["bunny.png"]);
}

Current Behavior

The console.log is returning "sheet is undefined". I look in the console and
'PIXI.Loader.shared.resources["sprites/spritesheet.json"]'
returns an object. but the .spritesheet property doesn't exist. This is how the official documentation says to load in spritesheets, right? Am I missing something obvious here, or does pixi no longer have the ability to load sprites from a spritesheet?

Possible Solution

Steps to Reproduce

1. Download what I've written here: https://github.com/Forleafe/FaerieHeart
2. Run index.html
3. look at the console.log

Environment

• pixi.js version: 5.1.0
• Browser & Version: Firefox 68.01
• OS & Version: Ubuntu 18.04

This is because you're trying to run the html file from your PC; browsers don't like that. You must run it through a web server.
npm i -g http-server@0.9.0
then
npm run http-server
in the directory where your index.html file is. Then it all works fine for me

Ah you're totally right, thanks babe. ;; I was actually running http-server already, but the problem was that firefox by default doesn't open local files in localhost:8080 like it used to, so I actually had to navigate to "localhost:8080" in the URL bar for everything to work.
