Auto Update ready application packaging.

Code Signing on a CI server or development machine.

Two package.json structure is supported, but you are not forced to use it even if you have native production dependencies.

You don't need to ignore them explicitly.

Development dependencies are never included.

Native application dependencies compilation (including Yarn support).

See the full documentation on electron.build. You can set the ELECTRON_CACHE environment variable to set cache location explicitly.ToDesktop: An all-in-one platform for building and releasing Electron apps

Windows: $LOCALAPPDATA/electron/Cache or ~/AppData/Local/electron/Cache/.

Linux: $XDG_CACHE_HOME or ~/.cache/electron/.

The location of the cache depends on the operating system, the defaults are: Yourself and let electron-download still perform its hash validations. If you have internal builds of Electron you should generate the SHASUMS file Use this only when testing local build of Electron, Do this by setting disableChecksumSafet圜heck to true You can also disable checksum validation if you really want to (this is in

package.json ( _package_config_electron_*).

The same pattern applies to ELECTRON_CUSTOM_DIR and ELECTRON_CUSTOM_FILENAME:

You can set the ELECTRON_MIRROR or NPM_CONFIG_ELECTRON_MIRROR environment variable or mirror opt variable to use a custom base URL for grabbing Electron zips. The mirror URL is composed as url = ELECTRON_MIRROR + ELECTRON_CUSTOM_DIR + '/' + ELECTRON_CUSTOM_FILENAME. If you would like to override the mirror location, three options are available. You can force a re-download of the asset and the SHASUM file by setting the These options may be specified per download call.

Symbols property to true in the specified options object. This can beĬonfigured by setting the chromedriver, ffmpeg, mksnapshot, or Mksnapshot, and symbols assets for a specific Electron release. You can also use electron-download to download the chromedriver, ffmpeg, If there is a SHASUMS256.txt file available for the version, the file downloaded will be validated against its checksum to ensure that it was downloaded without errors.

If you don't specify arch or platform args it will use the built-in os module to get the values from the current OS.
