I am trying to package my app with electron-packager. For a start , running my electron works fine and easy with the
electron .
I then install electron-packager and attempted to package with my command belwo
electron-packager . app --out ./electron --platform=darwin --arch=x64 --version=0.35.0 --overwrite
It packaged only 3 files in my folder. The app, the licence and the version files. When i click the app, it throws error cannot find module .../...electron.js. When i change my command to
electron-packager . app --out ./electron --platform=win32 --arch=x64 --version=0.35.0 --overwrite
it works fine and packaged with all the folders and files i was expecting. I tried everything possible yet couldn't get it to package the darwin version with the resource folders and necessary files. It is failing as a result. Please what causes this and how do i resolved it please? Any help would be appreciated.
Note: I am running OSX ELCAPITAN version 10.11.4 on my machine.
Why are you trying to package it on version 0.35, have you tried to package a newer version? Try that.

I'm trying to install react-native-camera. I'm on Ubuntu 18, Webstorm for IDE. Targeting Android.
For the Android SDK, I don't have a full Android Studio install. I've instead install only android-sdk and I'm using the sdkmanager. That works fine with my stub app, it compile and runs on Android with
react-native run-android
I've installed react-native-camera as a module with npm as per the indications:
npm install react-native-camera --save
react-native link react-native-camera
So far so good. It links. If I try to launch the app however (even before trying to actually use the camera), I get some warnings:
> Configure project :react-native-camera
Checking the license for package Android SDK Platform-Tools in /usr/lib/android-sdk/licenses
License for package Android SDK Platform-Tools accepted.
Preparing "Install Android SDK Platform-Tools (revision: 28.0.1)".
Warning: Failed to read or create install properties file.
WARNING: platform-tools package is not installed, and automatic installation failed.
So I've tried to install the platforms tools using the sdk manager & instructions provided here:
sdkmanager "platform-tools" "platforms;android-28"
Which yields:
Warning: Failed to read or create install properties file.
So I am guessing it really has to do with the sdkmanager...
Do I absolutely need 28.0.1 for react-native-camera? If so, how can I get around this issue with the SDK manager? I've tried various similar syntax for the install of the platform and it didn't work. I checked with sdkmanager --list that it's the proper name (seems to be). And if I go under android-sdk/platforms-tools all I see there is the adb file (or perhaps the install is supposed to just update that file?)
Silly me.
I needed to run the SDK manager as sudo. To do that:
sudo bash sdkmanager [installations args as per post above].
I will leave the post - I lost a ridiculous amount of time for that, hopefully it can help others....
And yes - if the platform-tools install has worked then under /platform-tools you should see a bunch of files, not just the adb one.
By following nativescript docs, installed all dependencies and tns doctor dont find any error.
and followed a tutorial and ran the following commands,
npm install -g #vue/cli #vue/cli-init
vue init nativescript-vue/vue-cli-template hello-vue
cd hello-vue
npm install
All sets fine and then i did my coding for an simple app then i ran below command:
npm run watch:android
This deploy the app in my connected android phone.
so my question is how can i get the apk file, so that i can send to another person?
Note: sidekick even not opening my folder. and when running tns build android shows No project found at or above 'C:\wamp64\www\newapp' and neither was a --path specified.
For building the apk for android, use the following command:
tns build android --release --key-store-path <path-to-your-keystore> --key-store-password <your-key-store-password> --key-store-alias <your-alias-name> --key-store-alias-password <your-alias-password>
Lots more info here : https://docs.nativescript.org/tooling/publishing/publishing-android-apps
If you want to get the debug apk using tns debug android --bundle, it will be located here :
<your project folder>/platforms/android/app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk
If you are having trouble running tns, install nativescript globally using:
npm i -g nativescript
And follow the simple prompts.
I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for (it sounds like you want a debug.apk instead of an output.apk), but you might want to look at the documentation for publishing an Android app.
Apache Cordova Dependency Checker fails in VS Community 2015. It was previously working on this computer until I ran several VS and 3rd party tools updates. Here's what I've done to try to resolve the issue:
Installed VS / Apache Cordova (no error messages displayed) following article https://taco.visualstudio.com/en-us/docs/install-vs-tools-apache-cordova/
Run Apache Cordova Dependency Checker but VS freezes with the error message - VS 2015 has stopped working, windows will try to restart the program.
I restarted VS and cleared Cordova cache, checked environment variables (all good), then tried Apache Cordova Dependency Checker with the same freeze result.
I tried to update Apache Cordova with the fix option (no error messages) but received the same freeze results.
I completely uninstalled Apache Cordova, 3rd party tools (following article https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3016536), and VS community and then reinstalled them (no error messages) but received the same freeze results.
I installed Apache Cordova on another computer and the dependency checker phonegap app... worked. Unfortunately that's not a computer that I have access to.
What else can I do to resolve the Apache Cordova installation issue?
Thanks for any help,
Mike
Since my original post, I've had to resolve Visual Studio, Ionic, Cordova, Phonegap, plugin... environment issue several times. I've found the below works best:
Ensure platform matches plugin requirements, see platform in config.xml e.g. 6.1.1
Uninstall, reinstall latest jdk (adobe)
Clear MEF Cache - download the tool and follow instructions
Download/install latest node.js
Run the following from the command line:
Clear cache: Npm cache clean
Install latest npm: npm install -g npm
Uninstall cordova: Npm uninstall -g cordova
Reinstall cordova: Npm install –g cordova (note, this took 5+ tries to complete without errors. No other changes were made between runs. Not sure
why. Found others complaining about the same issue.)
Remove Android platform: Cordova platform remove android
Install Cordova platform add android#6.X.X (Note, as of 4/20/17 cordova and android compatibility issue. Build error - unable to find installed version of gradle. resolved by running (npm install -g cordova#6.4.0) and (cordova platform add android#6.1.2). Addt'l build errors, resolved by updating components in Android SDK Manager)
Uninstall/Reinstall plugins from the command line. For example:
cordova plugin remove phonegap-plugin-push
cordova plugin add phonegap-plugin-push variable SENDER_ID="YourID#"
npm install bower -g
Restart Visual Studio - Verify plugins were installed via config.xml
Install Ionic:
npm uninstall -g ionic
npm install -g ionic (note: to install specific version, npm install -g ionic#2.2.3)
$ ionic platform add ios
$ ionic platform add android (note: redundant, already added above)
I recommend putting as much of this as possible in a batch file with a pause between commands. Verify each command was successful, if not press ctrl+break at the pause to term the batch file early. The batch file is an easy way to restore your environment when everything breaks again. Stuff happens!
I also started using a VM (oracle virtualbox) for my development environment. That way I can backup my environment before making changes and easily restore. Don't forget to upload to GIT on a daily basis. GIT and VMs are my lifesavers.
Cool NPM commands:
npm list (lists all installed packages)
npm prune (removes packages not depended on by your project according to your package.json)
npm outdated (tells you which installed packages are outdated with respect to what is current in the npm registry but allowable by the version definition in your package.json. Make sure all up-to-date)
Please feel free to add/make suggestions to the above list.

I want to update the Ionic CLI tool to the latest version (v1.3.13).
I do this:
npm update -g ionic
It appears to work. No errors, it gets all the files successfully.
But - I do this:
ionic --version
And it shows the previous version! Why?
Turns out I had installed Ionic last year, but locally.
I had installed it in C:\Users\myusername\Documents\Nodejs directory.
I removed these files from this directory:
ionic
ionic.cmd
And this folder in the \node-modules directory:
ionic
Once I did this, when I ran the command,
ionic --version
...it displayed the correct version, due to it being successfully installed in the global space (AppData\Roaming\npm).
Hope this helps other Windows users.
inject this line of code in your project in bower.json file and run bower update
"ionic": "driftyco/ionic-bower#1.1.0",
I was able to install cordova originally but I am now unable to use it.
I have uninstalled using npm uninstall -g cordova, and this seems to be working as expected. When I attempt to reinstall it using the command npm install -g cordova, the installation seems to run, but when attempting to run cordova commands I get the cordova is not a recognized internal or external batch command message. This is on a Windows 7 Pro x64 machine. What could be the possible causes and fixes for this?
Do you already had the apacha ant ready? If not, try to download that from apache.org and put the patch folder where you extract this to your path variable.
You should add the cordova installation path folder to you path environment variables
