Accessors

  • get platforms(): string[]
  • Returns string[]

Methods

  • Ensures the directory exists and is forced to be empty.

    I.e. If the directory already exists it is deleted and recreated, this is a destructive operation

    Parameters

    • dir: string

    Returns Promise<void>

  • Throws an error if any of the binaries don't exist.

    Returns void

  • Ensures the path to the file exists and the file does not exist

    I.e. If the file already exists it is deleted and the path created

    Parameters

    • file: string

    Returns Promise<void>

  • Checks if the specified binaries exist, which are required for the maker to be used.

    Returns boolean

  • Checks if the given module is installed, used for testing if optional dependencies are installed or not

    Parameters

    • module: string

    Returns boolean

  • Makers must implement this method and return true or false indicating whether this maker can be run on the current platform. Normally this is just a process.platform check but it can be a deeper check for dependencies like fake-root or other required external build tools.

    If the issue is a missing dependency you should log out a HELPFUL error message telling the developer exactly what is missing and if possible how to get it.

    Returns boolean

  • Parameters

    • platform: string

    Returns platform is "darwin" | "mas"

  • Makers must implement this method and return an array of absolute paths to the artifacts generated by your maker

    Parameters

    Returns Promise<string[]>

  • Normalize the given semver-formatted version to a 4-part dot delimited version number without prerelease information for use in Windows apps.

    Parameters

    • version: string

    Returns string

  • Parameters

    • targetArch: string

    Returns Promise<void>
