TypeError: window.require is not a function

问题

Im trying to build an electron app and want to use window.require. Unfortunately the compiler says "TypeError: window.require is not a function". Ironically require works only in main.js.

Here the code Im trying to run:

const electron = window.require('electron')
const low =  window.require('lowdb')
const FileSync = window.require('lowdb/adapters/FileSync')

I read in another post that somebody have had the same problem and it was fixed by adding this code into the .html file:

    <script type="text/javascript" src="../../../Gehaltseinstellungen_Hinzufügen.js">
        window.nodeRequire = require;
        delete window.require;
        delete window.exports;
        delete window.module;
    </script>

Also the author said using "nodeRequire" instead of require would solve the problem but it doesn't...

Another option I read about is that the NodeIntegration is set to false while the rendering process is activated, but I don't know how to activate Node while rendering.

回答1:

It is unclear what version of Electron you are using. The syntax you are using is non-standard.

First – if you are using Electron 5.0, nodeIntegration is false by default in BrowserWindows so you need to specify it explicitly when you create your window:

mainWindow = new BrowserWindow({
  width: 800,
  height: 600,
  webPreferences: {
    nodeIntegration: true
  }
})

Given the above, the syntax below works fine (i.e. no 'window' reference needed):

const { ipcRenderer, remote } = require('electron');
