electron-prebuilt's Issues

username on run.bat

@maxogden
Is this a correct path(of us)?:cat2:
https://github.com/mafintosh/electron-prebuilt/blob/master/run.bat#L2

pass CLI args in

right now atom-shell ./hello-app doesn't work, but /Users/maxogden/src/js/dat-shell/node_modules/atom-shell/dist/Atom.app/Contents/MacOS/Atom ./hello-app does

https://github.com/dougnukem/hello-atom/tree/master/hello-app

rename to something else because atom-shell is renaming to electron

electron/electron#1389

unfortunately http://npmjs.org/electron is taken.

ideas that are available:

electron-cli
electron-shell
ignore the name change and keep distributing it at atom-shell

anyone have better ideas? I like the bin to match the name, but having a long name sucks. so maybe npm i electron-cli -g should install electron?

i'm trying to do the basic first steps as outlined in "Creating Desktop Apps with Electron" by Kyle Robinson Young but i only get to the point where executing electron . should bring up an empty window. My index.js looks like this:

var app           = require( 'app' );
var BrowserWindow = require( 'browser-window' );
var log           = console.log;

log( app );
log( process[ 'versions' ] );
app.on( 'ready', function(){
  log( "app ready" );
  var main_window = new BrowserWindow({
    width:    1200,
    height:    800,
  });
  var url = 'file://' + __dirname + '/index.html';
  main_window.loadUrl( url );
  } );

app.on( 'gpu-process-crashed',           function(){ log( 'gpu-process-crashed'           ); } );
app.on( 'select-certificate',            function(){ log( 'select-certificate'            ); } );
app.on( 'activate-with-no-open-windows', function(){ log( 'activate-with-no-open-windows' ); } );
app.on( 'before-quit',                   function(){ log( 'before-quit'                   ); } );
app.on( 'browser-window-blur',           function(){ log( 'browser-window-blur'           ); } );
app.on( 'browser-window-focus',          function(){ log( 'browser-window-focus'          ); } );
app.on( 'open-file',                     function(){ log( 'open-file'                     ); } );
app.on( 'open-url',                      function(){ log( 'open-url'                      ); } );
app.on( 'quit',                          function(){ log( 'quit'                          ); } );
app.on( 'ready',                         function(){ log( 'ready'                         ); } );
app.on( 'will-finish-launching',         function(){ log( 'will-finish-launching'         ); } );
app.on( 'will-quit',                     function(){ log( 'will-quit'                     ); } );
app.on( 'window-all-closed',             function(){ log( 'window-all-closed'             ); } );

i get to see the output from the two console.log calls, but neither the ready event handler nor any of the other event handlers gets called; instead, the process terminates.

Edit i'm using n for keeping multiple versions of NodeJS/iojs and have set the global iojs version to 2.3.1. Turns out when i start the bundled executable directly from the command line as .../test-electron/node_modules/electron-prebuilt/dist/Electron.app/Contents/MacOS/Electron, the process exits with Segmentation fault: 11. Any ideas what could be going wrong here? BTW this is on OSX 10.8.4.

Edit 2 this is getting a little weirder now: i downloaded the prebuilt binary zip from https://github.com/atom/electron/releases and overwrote the Electron.app that came with npm install with the one from the downloaded archive—and it works. Comparing the contents of the two (with DiffMerge) would appear to show that the only difference is that the version installed via npm install lacks a lot of language files like ...electron-v0.29.2-darwin-x64.zip Folder/Electron.app/Contents/Resources/en.lproj/ and so on.

problems with v0.30.4 on OSX 10.8.4

(this is a re-take on #44)

Steps to reproduce the issue at hand:

make sure you're running iojs v2.3.1
clone my sample app, which contains files according to http://electron.atom.io/docs/v0.30.0/tutorial/quick-start/: git clone https://github.com/loveencounterflow/electron-sample-1.git
cd electron-sample-1
npm install
npm start, or, equivalently, node_modules/.bin/electron .

If you're running this on e.g. Linux, you should be seeing the app window (with minimal HTML and devtools opened). However, on my OSX 10.8.4, this consistently crashes (dumps available).

The weird thing is i can make the app run as expected by downloading and unpacking https://github.com/atom/electron/releases/download/v0.30.4/electron-v0.30.4-darwin-x64.zip, and then executing ~/Downloads/electron-v0.30.4-darwin-x64.zip\ Folder/Electron.app/Contents/MacOS/Electron ., which appears to strongly suggest that the fault lies specifically with electron-prebuilt on OSX.

I would be grateful if anyone could reproduce the issue; it is not impossible that there's an issue with my OS somehow (although the assumption is that the manually downloaded and the prebuilt version of Electron should behave identically).

It looks like the latest on npmjs is outdated.

Electron installation fails on Debian based distros.

I have been trying to install electron on my Ubuntu system both as a dependancy and globally but both commands fail.

According to the log in /usr/share/doc/nodejs/README.Debian this seems to be the issue:

nodejs command
--------------

The upstream name for the Node.js interpreter command is "node".
In Debian the interpreter command has been changed to "nodejs".

This was done to prevent a namespace collision: other commands use
the same name in their upstreams, such as ax25-node from the "node"
package.

Scripts calling Node.js as a shell command must be changed to instead
use the "nodejs" command.

It seems that electron still calls upon "node" rather than "nodejs" which is why the "install.js" script fails.

Provide support for proxy installs

I have tried installing electron-prebuilt using npm however I run into errors similar to this other user (electron/electron#1578).

Can't debug version above 0.30.8 on WebStorm or VSCode using remote debugger

It keeps connecting but never connects. It happens on OSX and Linux. I can`t test on Windows.

Installing electron v0.33.0 failing on linux

Just upgraded to electron v0.33.0 but the download is failing on linux x64. You can find an error log here.

electron cant start - NSURLErrorDomain

When I start electron with "$ electron" it does nothing.
When I start electron on my project with "$ electron ."
it says:
0615/102324:ERROR:http_transport_mac.mm(186)] Could not connect to the server. (NSURLErrorDomain -1004)

I'm on Mac OSX 10.8.5 and I installed electron with command line "$ npm install electron-prebuilt -g"
electron version: v0.27.2
npm version: 2.11.0
iosj version: v2.2.1

Also if I install latest electron version, same error ("$ npm install [email protected] -g")

Also Electron.app does work if I download it from https://github.com/atom/electron/releases/tag/v0.28.1

Download of electron-prebuilt node module

I am getting Error While downloading electron-prebuilt node module in my local System.In this attachment i kept Screenshot to show errors which are coming while i am downloading this node module.Please resolve my issue

npm install error: Cannot find module 'process-nextick-args' / Installing wrong version

Reinstalling electon-prebuilt because npm wouldn't update it and the reinstall came with this nifty error:
Cannot find module 'process-nextick-args'

It seems like it is not installing any of it's own modules. It also isn't installing the latest version on another computer, only version 0.25.3.

automate update

we need a command to run that:

increments package.json to new version
updates index.js to have new version (we could prob just have it read package.json)
commits and tags the commit with the new version (like what npm version patch does)

the command should be e.g. 'node update.js 0.26.0'

then they can use it here electron/electron#1488 to automate

Using ia32 version on x64 windows system

The ia32 windows build seems to work fine on x64 systems but not vice versa. I would prefer to only distribute one windows version (32 bit) of my app, but still build it on a x64 system. Is there any way to install the ia32 version on x64 windows (besides from copying the folder from another system)?

And is this recommended at all? Should I rather just distribute separate ia32 and x64 windows versions of my app?

dont hardcode `node` in the install script

how should "scripts" in package.json for spawning a node script be made cross platform?

if i have "scripts": {"install": "./index.js"} it errors on windows

if i have "scripts": {"install": "node index.js"} it will fail if the user doesnt have node (e.g. some people have node as other names)

there is $NODE set to the node bin path but i dont know how to call that in a cross platform way

I am running behind a corporate firewall that does MITM HTTP/HTTPS content filtering, which does inject its own certificate. However, I don't normally get this error when installing NPM packages, as I have the self-signed certificate marked as trusted on my machine, and I've also set the "cafile=/path/to/cert" and "strict-ssl=false" set in my ~/.npmrc file.

install in home directory? [almost pull request]

⚡ Electron is fun to play with, especially with the recent growth of apps. Between experimenting and modifying apps, electron-prebuilt started downloading lots of 💾 on my machine. But I only want one copy, so I forked the lib and named it electron-bin. I felt like the changes might break other apps and don't address any major bugs, so I didn't submit a PR:

Difs:

Downloads electron in home directory - ~/.electron/<version>/.../electron - checks for it's existence before starting any downloads, and rimrafs the .zip after download. Also added electronVersion field in the package.json for convenience.

PR potential?

If ~/.electron/ is treated as a cache, with the files copied into the local node_modules/electron-prebuilt/dest folder, the behavior might be similar enough to not break anything. Let me know if there's PR interest because these libs are almost identical!!

latest version on npm does not match latest version on github

At the time of writing, npm should list v0.35.1 as latest version. However, on https://www.npmjs.com/package/electron-prebuilt, it lists 0.34.4 as latest release.

For some reason, npm i -D electron-prebuilt works just dandy, it installs v0.35.1 and saved the proper tag in my package.json.

But running npm info electron-prebuilt returns nothing at all. This causes problems for other modules like npm-check-updates...

Executable not executable

On OSX (Yosemite), After npm install -g atom-shell, i typed atom-shell . and it told me...

The file '/usr/local/bin/atom-shell' is marked as an executable but could not be run by the operating system.

The file created looked like this...

"/usr/local/lib/node_modules/atom-shell/dist/Atom.app/Contents/MacOS/Atom" "$@"

So i just changed it to

#!/usr/bin/env bash
"/usr/local/lib/node_modules/atom-shell/dist/Atom.app/Contents/MacOS/Atom" "$@"

And it worked fine. Maybe this is because im running fish as my default shell?

Support --enable-logging option

Using Electron v0.33.7 and the electron executable the --enabled-logging option is not working. However if you use cli.js directly then --enable-logging works.

Installing globally on darwin fails with EACCESS

We've been burned by this a couple of times but to install globally you have to do sudo npm install electron-prebuilt -g and it seems like it's attempting to copy a temp file from a root folder into a user folder that it doesn't have access to.

The work around is to install electron-prebuilt locally once, npm install electron-prebuilt to get the binary into the user folder cache, then install globally.

I just wanted to point this out, it would be nice if this error didn't happen, it's not blocking me though.

Install fails because module 'is-property' isn't installed

I think electron-prebuilt needs to include a dependency on module is-property because on my system it's bombing out and can't install because that module is missing. After I manually installed is-property electron-prebuilt installed correctly.

Hard Coded Version in install.js

The version that install.js pulls down is hard coded to 0.18.0, but the latest release is 0.19.5 which has lots of bug fixes. Maybe we could figure out what the latest version is and have it pull that?

Install Error "Cannot find module 'is-property'"

matching version numbers with atom-shell releases

just a suggestion, how about we match the version in package.json with the version number that atom-shell releases with?

Windows 7 32-bit : ZIP inconsistency

I'm trying to run electron on a 32-bit windows 7 without any dependencies and it throws the following

I'll try to narrow this down in a bit.

Updater failed to publish to npm

Is there anything I can do help figure out what happened? Were you on 0.1.0 or 0.2.0 when the 0.28.2 release happened?

Remove .zip after download

It would be great if this bundle could remove the zip file after the installation is done.

why npm info atom-shell point to this project rather than atom's offercial repo?

why npm info atom-shell don't point to https://github.com/atom/atom-shell ?

No freeBSD support?

Ref: s-a/iron-node#41

Can you point me to a OS list supported by electron?

Partially downloaded electron package fails to install and install electron-prebuilt will not redownload

I just had a hiccup in my internet while installing electron-prebuilt 0.30.4 and ended up with a 9.5 MB download of the zip for it instead of the 45.4 MB version. The install failed of course, and upon repeat attempts to install, it always got the same error and never attempted to re-download the zip.

Deleting the cached version from my user/.electron folder ended up making it download again and install correctly.

Perhaps a file size check of md5 verification on the cache after detecting that the file exists would be helpful.

Here is the error for reference:

Downloading electron-v0.30.4-win32-x64.zip
Error: GET https://github.com/atom/electron/releases/download/v0.30.4/electron-v0.30.4-win32-x64.zip returned 503

Current version on OSX isn't executable by default

When I download the current version (0.30.4), it's not executable by default. Trying to run the app just says that it could not be run. All of the executables (so Electron.app/Contents/MacOS/electron, Electron.app/Contents/Frameworks/Electron\ Framework.framework\Electron Framework and such are marked non executable. chmod +x fixes this. They are executable when downloaded using grunt-download-electron. Is this an issue here? or upstream with electron?

npm\atom-shell.cmd not working

This probably isn't really an issue with this project but npm on windows 8.1. But I think I have a better chance of resolving this with somebody who hasn't got 800 issues on there hands. I hope you don't mind, otherwise feel free to close this issue straight away.

On windows 8.1 in the folder ~\AppData\Roaming\npm there lie all the .cmd scripts to launch global executable npm packages including atom-shell.

This is the content for the atom-shell .cmd file:

@IF EXIST "%~dp0\/bin/bash.exe" (
  "%~dp0\/bin/bash.exe"  "%~dp0\node_modules\atom-shell\run.bat" %*
) ELSE (
  @SETLOCAL
  @SET PATHEXT=%PATHEXT:;.JS;=;%
  /bin/bash  "%~dp0\node_modules\atom-shell\run.bat" %*
)

Windows will arrive at the last line in this script:

/bin/bash  "%~dp0\node_modules\atom-shell\run.bat" %*

and then fail, because there is no such thing as /bin/bash on windows?!?!?!

Question : How to pass custom command line arguments ?

Hi! I d like to pass custom command line arguments to have them available at process.argv. Is there a way to submit values?

tags don't match versions on npm

versions on npm: [ '0.24.0', '0.25.0', '0.25.1-1', '0.25.1' ]
tags on github: v1.0.0...v1.2.1

Does not work with ES6 syntax

Version 0.30.0 works fine with ES6 syntax, such as () => { console.log('Yay') }.

Version 0.30.7 throw errors on such syntax.

Does this create the app?

When I tried this all I got was the app running.. it didn't create anything anywhere for me to then distribute... should it create something? And if so where and how do I do this?

In the past I have just downloaded the latest release of atom-shell/electron and then just moved my /app folder into the resources folder for the .exe / .app and then renamed it and distributed.

Does this package offer any of that??
