Properties¶

additionalArguments?¶

readonly optional additionalArguments: null | string[]

Array of strings specifying additional arguments to pass to the codesign command used to sign a specific file.

Some subresources that you may include in your Electron app may need to be signed with –deep, this is not typically safe to apply to the entire Electron app and therefore should be applied to just your file. Usage Example: ['--deep']

Inherited from¶

MacConfiguration.additionalArguments

appId?¶

readonly optional appId: null | string

The application id. Used as CFBundleIdentifier for MacOS and as Application User Model ID for Windows (NSIS target only, Squirrel.Windows not supported). It is strongly recommended that an explicit ID is set.

Default¶

com.electron.${name}

Inherited from¶

MacConfiguration.appId

artifactName?¶

readonly optional artifactName: null | string

The artifact file name template. Defaults to ${productName}-${version}.${ext} (some target can have other defaults, see corresponding options).

asar?¶

"!**/{appveyor.yml,.travis.yml,circle.yml}",
"!**/{npm-debug.log,yarn.lock,.yarn-integrity,.yarn-metadata.json}"
]

Development dependencies are never copied in any case. You don’t need to ignore it explicitly. Hidden files are not ignored by default, but all files that should be ignored, are ignored by default.

Default pattern **/* is not added to your custom if some of your patterns is not ignore (i.e. not starts with !). package.json and **/node_modules/**/* (only production dependencies will be copied) is added to your custom in any case. All default ignores are added in any case — you don’t need to repeat it if you configure own patterns.

May be specified in the platform options (e.g. in the mac).

You may also specify custom source and destination directories by using FileSet objects instead of simple glob patterns.

[
{
 "from": "path/to/source",
 "to": "path/to/destination",
 "filter": ["**/*", "!foo/*.js"]
}
]

You can use file macros in the from and to fields as well. from and to can be files and you can use this to rename a file while packaging.
