Error: Couldn't resolve parser "babel"

Since Jan 25, this package is breaking on Sublime 3 with following error:

------------------
 JsPrettier ERROR 
------------------

Prettier reported the following error(s):

[warn] Ignored unknown option `--html-whitespace-sensitivity=css`.
[error] Error: Couldn't resolve parser "babel"

Process finished with exit code 1

NPM versions:

• prettier@1.16.1
• babel-cli@6.26.0
• babel@6.23.0

Sublime Packages:

• Babel@8.6.3
• JSPrettier@1.23.1

OSX 10.13.6

Any suggestions?

Try to remove the prettier package from your package.json file, either by yarn remove or npm uninstall, then install it again, this worked for me

Prettier 1.16 or greater now appears to be a requirement here, so removing it from your package.json and installing the latest version will fix the problem.

The issue appears to be that Prettier <=1.15 uses the plugin “babylon” but 1.16 uses “babel.” There is the parser option available for CLI prettier but the Sublime plugin sets it automatically, overriding anything you set in the Sublime plugin setting. If we could change the plugin name, we could fix the problem ourselves.

As it is I now have to submit a PR to my team to change the package.json just to fix my Sublime Text, which is not ideal.

I reinstalled the npm package prettier and it started working for me. npm install -g prettier

Hope that helps.
