child_process.fork not starting an express server inside of packaged electron app

由 自古美人都是妖i 提交于 2019-12-04 17:40:25
问题 I have an electron app where I need not only to run the interface to the user but also start an express server that will serve files for people connected through the network. I have everything working if I start both electron and the express server normally, but I'm pretty confident that I will need the server running in a different thread to avoid slugish interface and even problems with the server. For that matter I tried to run my express server using the child_process.fork and it worked

Showing window after it is fully loaded

由 三世轮回 提交于 2019-12-04 16:29:26
问题 When I create basic application and initialize it using electron command, it shows me a blank window and a moment later loads the content. Which event and which object should be used to show the window after the content is fully loaded? did-finish-load on a window.webContent object? Or maybe dom-ready ? Or maybe something else? app.js : var app = require('app'), Window = require('browser-window'), mainWindow = null; require('crash-reporter').start(); app.on('ready', function() { mainWindow =

I am very new to Electron, just tried to follow the Documentation. I was able to run a html in Electron and it worked fine. Then I tried to load a Rails app with BrowserWindow loadUrl, but the javascripts of the app are not working inside Electron.

Find OS username in NodeJS

由 放肆的年华 提交于 2019-12-04 15:13:15
问题 How would I find the username that the computer owner is using currently (while logged in), using NodeJS? I have searched around a bit, but haven't found anything... 回答1: I am not sure why, but someone added an answer and then deleted it quickly after... I was fast enough to catch it though, and after checking, it is the shortest and most effective way of doing what I asked before: require("os").userInfo().username The only problem is, in Windows 10, it returns the first name of the owner

How to hide the API key in my Electron application?

由 假装没事ソ 提交于 2019-12-04 13:38:15
问题 I'm building an Electron application that uses Google's YouTube Data API v3. For accessing the API, I decided to use the standard API key (instead of OAuth, since I am not going to be accessing any personal data). But the problem is, I cannot hide the API key in my app, and I also cannot use referrer restrictions (referrer restrictions allow you to filter which web sites can use your API key (by HTTP address)), since this is an Electron app. So basically, if someone looks at the source code

Nodejs (Sync) cannot find fibers binaries

由 不问归期 提交于 2019-12-04 13:31:34
问题 I've seen similar questions but no real solution that worked for me yet (most users just reinstall fibers or meteor (I'm not using meteor)).

问题 I need my Electron app to respond to the user becoming idle (no mouse or keyboard inputs to any program on the OS) for a certain amount of time.
