Shepherd.Tour constructor definition of steps errors with showOn being undefined

[jspeaks]

When trying to define Shepherd Tour via a steps property passed to the constructor I receive an error "cannot read property showOn of undefined". The steps are very primitive and work with the addStep method:

var tour = new Shepherd.Tour({
    defaults:{
        classes:"shepherd-theme-default"
    }
    ,steps:[
        {
            id:"s1"
            ,text:"Find out about Feature A"
            ,attachTo:".featureA right"
        }
        ,{
                id:"s2"
            ,text:"Find out about Feature B"
            ,attachTo:".featureB right"
        }
    ]
});
tour.start();

This is not a feature as far as I know. You should create steps using the addStep method.

This should be reopened as it is a feature in the docs:

https://github.com/HubSpot/shepherd/blob/ecc84623df9eb21e6935e01240c4e7d078552bdd/docs/intro.md#tour-options

Cannot read property 'showOn' of undefined at Tour.show (shepherd.js:708) at Tour.next (shepherd.js:641) at Tour.start (shepherd.js:733)

I just tried this too as it is in the docs. Got the same error.

What it says in the docs is An array of **Step instances**

What it doesn't say in the docs is how to create a Step instance manually.

The signature is new Shepherd.Step(tour_instance, options);

My question is, how the actual fuck are we supposed to supply the Tour instance to Tour constructor? IDK if the chicken came before the egg but it definitely came before the chicken sandwich...

@Pamblam I think you are supposed to create a new tour manually, then manually pass it to each manually created step. That being said, we should probably just rewrite steps to take the same format as addStep or just remove it from the docs.
