Development

Make sure you have met the requirements listed here: https://docs.nodegui.org/#/tutorial/development-environment

npm install
npm start

Currently fails on macOS, waiting on: nodegui/nodegui#939

Building

EXIF Reader is packaged with @nodegui/packer.

Step 1: (Run this command only once per platform)

This has already been run for macOS, but you'll need to run it for other platforms.

npx nodegui-packer --init 'EXIF Reader'

This creates the deploy directory with a template. Here you can add icons, change the app name, description and add other native features or dependencies. Make sure you commit this directory.

Step 2: (Run this command every time you want to build a new distributable)

Creates the JavaScript bundle along with assets inside the dist directory:

npm run build

Build the distributable based on the template, the output is in the /deploy/<platform>/build directory (ignored in git):

npm run package

Issues

Recent versions of nodegui have proved problematic building.

nodegui/nodegui#939 (comment)

pushd node_modules/@nodegui/nodegui
npm run build:addon
popd
