Unable get any response on Call back (Issue Or Question) about electron-simple-updater HOT 14 CLOSED

Hi. Do you run your app through installer?

from electron-simple-updater.

Hello megahertz,
Yes I'm package the app using squirrel-windows.

from electron-simple-updater.

It's strange.

Please print the output of

const updater = require('electron-simple-updater');
console.log(updater.options);

from electron-simple-updater.

Hey,
I got Below Response to log the options

{"autoDownload":true,"build":"","channel":"prod","checkUpdateOnStart":true,"disabled":false,"empty":true,"logger":{},
"version":"","url":""}

from electron-simple-updater.

Thanks. And please print the output after initialization

const updater = require('electron-simple-updater');
updater.init({
  console,
  checkUpdateOnStart: true,
  autoDownload: false,
  url:"urlHere"
});
console.log(updater.options);

from electron-simple-updater.

I got same response but also got new log is Update is disabled

Platform and Version is
win32_x64
0.0.1

from electron-simple-updater.

and what is the result of app.getName()?

from electron-simple-updater.

yeah its print Electron but in my package.json i'll given its my name is Digi****
{
"name": "digi***",
"productName": "Digi888",
"description": "Dig******",
"version": "0.0.1",
"license": "MIT",
"author": "Vijay Ijardar",
"main": "dist/main.js",
lot more
}

from electron-simple-updater.

In the most cases it happens when an application is not built correctly through electron-builder

from electron-simple-updater.

yes but i think the application successfully build with like name with Digi***-win32-ai32/Digi***.exe and its run without error. i dont know what is going wrong.

from electron-simple-updater.

it should be Digi*** Setup ***.exe. The app you run is not a squirrel-installed application

from electron-simple-updater.

No I'm package the app using eletron-packger after that i'll use the eletron winstaller in package.json
Have a Look

and installer is

const createWindowsInstaller = require('electron-winstaller').createWindowsInstaller
const path = require('path')

getInstallerConfig()
     .then(createWindowsInstaller)
     .catch((error) => {
     console.error(error.message || error)
     process.exit(1)
 })

function getInstallerConfig () {
    console.log('creating windows installer')
    const rootPath = path.join('./')
    const outPath = path.join(rootPath, 'release-builds')
console.log("root"+rootPath);
    return Promise.resolve({
       appDirectory: path.join(outPath, 'Digirecord-win32-ia32/'),
       title:'Digirecords',
       authors: 'Digiscribe Technology Pvt Ltd',
       noMsi: false,
     // loading_gif: path.join(rootPath, 'loader.gif'),
      outputDirectory: path.join(outPath, 'windows-installer'),
       exe: 'Digirecord.exe',
       setupExe: 'Digirecord.exe',
       setupIcon: path.join(rootPath, 'assets', 'icons', 'win', 'icon.ico')
   })
}

and the output are

I think so that is error is coming from electron-packager .

So solution is build using Electron-builder its not working with electron-packager .

from electron-simple-updater.

Yes, I didn't use electron-packager with electron-winstaller and I don't know if that build can use ESU. Just to be sure:

• add code which prints app.getName() in your app
• build a distributive
• install through DigirecordsSetup.msi on your computer
• run installed version and check what app.getName() prints, 'Electron' or 'Digirecords'.
