Muy buenas David... estoy intentando generar con Electron un ejecutable para windows... pero siempre me genera el mismo error... estoy intentandolo hacer con algún ejemplo de AppBuilder. Adjunto imagen: https://ibb.co/3Fhm0Yt

Hola Jordi,

Prueba a instalar la última versión estable de NodeJS. Creo que yo tuve exactamente el mismo problema, y, buscando información, encontré algo relacionado con NodeJS, concretamente, pasé de la versión 6 a la 10, y, ahora, Cordova Electron funciona perfectamente.

Purchase one or more licenses of our products if they are useful to you!

Perfecto David... era eso... Una cosa que estaría bien es que el instalador te dejara elegir el directorio donde quieres que se instale la aplicación cuando ejecutas el instalador EXE que te genera.

Hola Jordi,

Algo como lo que dices es posible en Electron, pero, por lo que parece, todavía no en Cordova Electron.

Es posible conseguirlo ahora mismo, editando a mano el archivo: "\App_Compiled\platforms\electron\cordova\lib\build\base.json". Dicho archivo contiene lo siguiente:


{
  "config": {
    "appId": "${APP_ID}",
    "productName": "${APP_TITLE}",

    "directories": {
      "app": "${APP_WWW_DIR}",
      "buildResources": "${APP_BUILD_RES_DIR}",
      "output": "${APP_BUILD_DIR}"
    },
    "electronVersion": "4.0.1",

    "electronDownload": {
      "version": "4.0.1"
    }
  }
}

Pues bien, es posible añadir la configuración del instalador NSIS en dicho archivo. Revisa esta documentación. El archivo anterior podría quedar así:


{
  "config": {
    "appId": "${APP_ID}",
    "productName": "${APP_TITLE}",

    "directories": {
      "app": "${APP_WWW_DIR}",
      "buildResources": "${APP_BUILD_RES_DIR}",
      "output": "${APP_BUILD_DIR}"
    },
    "electronVersion": "4.0.1",

    "electronDownload": {
      "version": "4.0.1"
    },
    
    "nsis": {
      "oneClick": false,
      "createStartMenuShortcut": true,
      "allowToChangeInstallationDirectory": true
    }    
  }
}

En cuanto sea posible, App Builder incorporará una opción para incluir este tipo de configuración, entre otras, de la misma manera que ya es posible especificar las opciones de ventana y lo necesario para firmar las apps.
