Run and Build

Package and Zip

  • It is recommended to use electron-packager for packaging.

    # install electron-packager for use from cli
npm install electron-packager -g

  • Go to the ./ folder, run npm run pack . The packaged file will be the ./dist folder.

  • This command may take several minutes to finish when you run it the first time, as it needs time to download dependent files. You can download the dependencies manually here, or Taobao mirror, then save the files to ~/.electron. You can check the Electron Docs for more infomation.

    # pack
npm run pack  # the packed files will be in ./dist

# or pack for a special platform
npm run pack-mac  # pack for macOS, the packed files will be in ./dist
npm run pack-win  # pack for Windows, the packed files will be in ./dist

  • After packaging, you can make a zip file by run the following command.

    # zip
npm run zip  # the zipped files will be in ./dist
