grunt-electron-packager-builder

Grunt tasks for working with electron, can run, compile and generate installers applications.

``


I am working to improve this.


This task has many errors but works with electron 1.2. *.
The task 'installer' (electron-builder) does not work well.
`

Install

`sh
npm install grunt-electron-packager-builder --save-dev
`

Quick Setup for this task.

Gruntfile.js
`js
module.exports = (grunt) => {
require('load-grunt-tasks')(grunt);

grunt.initConfig({
eplus:{
run:{
options:{
appPath : './app' // default './app'
}
}
},
epack : {
default:{
options:{
icon : './app/recursos/icon', //Auto detect platform extension.
}
}
}
});

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-electron-packager-builder');
grunt.registerTask('default', ['eplus:run']);
};
`
