ghostery / adblocker

Minimization of the application in webpack causes the problem with

const PRELOAD_PATH = require.resolve('@cliqz/adblocker-electron-preload');

as result in the minified code:

(node:87637) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: Error processing argument at index 0, conversion failure from
at Ci.enable (/Applications/SMBActApp.app/Contents/Resources/app/app-native/main.js:3994:85)

at process.processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:95:5)

original call is before minimization:

this._win = new BrowserWindow({

  },
});
if (this._blockMetadata.blockAds) {
  blocker.enableBlockingInSession(this._win.webContents.session);
}

the problem is on these two lines:

adblocker/packages/adblocker-electron/adblocker.ts

Line 90 in 7f65291

this.session.setPreloads(this.session.getPreloads().concat([PRELOAD_PATH]));

adblocker/packages/adblocker-electron/adblocker.ts

Line 18 in 7f65291

const PRELOAD_PATH = require.resolve('@cliqz/adblocker-electron-preload');

looks like workaround to put: loadCosmeticFilters = false in configuration.
