In Gutenberg in WordPress 5 beta wp.editor does not exists

When I try to call var RichText = wp.editor.RichText I get an error, because wp.editor is undefined. In the Gutenberg plugin this did work.

How are you calling this in your plugin? How are you enqueueing your JS?

When I evaluate wp.editor.RichText in the browser console it works just fine, with or without the plugin.

Now I see why it didn't work. I used wp-cli to generate the block files and I saw that it generated the following code:

wp_register_script(
        'myblock-block-editor',
        plugins_url( $index_js, __FILE__ ),
        array(
                'wp-blocks',
                'wp-i18n',
                'wp-element',
        ),
        filemtime( "$dir/$index_js" )
);

So without a 'wp-editor' dependency. Once I added it it worked. Thanks and sorry to bother you with this.
