If you get strange compilation errors, try to remove all node_modules
in the project (especially under packages/*
).
We use semantic-release, so we have very precise rules over how our git commit messages can be formatted.

. To clone:
git clone --single-branch -b docs git@github.com:electron-userland/electron-builder.git docs

Only IntelliJ Platform IDEs (IntelliJ IDEA, WebStorm) support debug.
If you use IntelliJ IDEA or WebStorm — ij-rc-producer is used and you can run tests from an editor (just click on Run
green gutter icon).
Or you can create Node.js run configuration manually:
- Ensure that
Before launch
containsCompile TypeScript
. - Set
Node interpreter
to NodeJS 8. NodeJS 8 is required to debug. - Set
Application Parameters
to-t "test name" relative-test-file-name
if you want to debug particular test. E.g.-t "extraResources - one-package" globTest.js
- Set
Environment Variables
:- Optionally,
TEST_APP_TMP_DIR
to some directory (e.g./tmp/electron-builder-test
) to inspect output if test uses temporary directory (only if--match
is used). Specified directory will be used instead of random temporary directory and cleared on each run.
- Optionally,
TEST_APP_TMP_DIR=/tmp/electron-builder-test ./node_modules/.bin/jest --env jest-environment-node-debug -t 'assisted' '/oneClickInstallerTest\.\w+$'
where TEST_APP_TMP_DIR
is specified to easily inspect and use test build, assisted
is the test name and /oneClickInstallerTest\.\w+$
is the path to test file.
Do not forget to execute yarn compile
before run.
