[webext-bridge] No handler registered in 'content-script' to accept messages with id 'get-name'

Describe the bug

Hello, I need to send and receive content script messages with .vue files and vice versa.
But whenever I try, I can't make my content script communicate with the .vue, and I even tried options, and I get the same error:

For others that may run into a similar error, you may simply need to check that your sendMessage / onMessage import statements specify the right "endpoints" since these endpoints indicate the source and destination of each message according to webext-bridge's documentation.

i.e. within e.g. src/contentScripts/views/Sample.vue

import { ... } from 'webext-bridge/content-script'

While in your background script(s) it'll be:

import { ... } from 'webext-bridge/background'

and so on (other endpoints are popup, options, devtools and window)

Looks like you made your imports correctly @capoia . Do you think the error could've come up because you send the message in contentScripts/index.ts before the listener gets registered in contentScripts/App.vue (since the vue app is only initialized many lines after the sendMessage() call)?
