Quick Examples

var wx = require("wxnode");

var MyApp = wx.App.extend({
  onInit: function() {
    var location = new wx.Point(50, 50);
    var size = new wx.Size(450, 340);
    var frame = new MyFrame("Hello World", location, size);
    frame.show(true);
    this.setTopWindow(frame);
    return true;
  }
});

var MyFrame = wx.Frame.extend({
  init: function(title, pos, size) {
    this._super(null, -1, title, pos, size);

    this.EVT_CLOSE(this.onClose);
  },

  onClose: function(event) {
    process.exit();
  }
});

var app = new MyApp();
app.run();

Building wxWidgets linux

$ sudo apt-get install libwebkitgtk-dev
$ sudo ldconfig
$ ./configure --enable-webview --enable-webview-webkit && make
$ sudo make install

## Creating wxapi.xml from wxWidgets

$ sudo apt-get install libwebkitgtk-dev
$ cd wxWidgets-2.9.3/docs/doxygen
$ ./regen.sh xml
$ cd ../..
$ ./configure --enable-webview --enable-webview-webkit
$ patch -p0 -i ~/wxNode/rungccxml.sh.patch
$ patch -p0 -i ~/wxNode/strvararg.h.patch
$ cd utils/ifacecheck/
$ ./rungccxml.sh
$ cp wxapi.xml ~/wxNode/wxapi.xml
$ cd ~/wxNode
$ rm wxapi.json
$ rm -rf build
$ ./render-templates.js && ./mnm.js build

wxnode's Issues

Compile failed on Mac OSX 10.7

Core dump from recent changes

On Ubuntu 11.04 getting a core dump with both regenerated bindings or using the ones on github. The version on npm works without an issue but that's prior to a lot of changes it looks like, the webview stuff etc.

Is this project alive?

I just wanted to know if there is any plan to maintain this project or not, as i've seen open issues from 2013, thanks.

Dunno exactly how to fix this myself but, eh. ovo"

AppJS is being deprecated, and a new system is made - I need your help.

Hello!

So, in the README, you say that you discontinued this project in favor of appJS. Well, appJS itself has been deprecated, and ownership has been transfered to me.

We currently are working out a new system that overtakes appjs. The reason is, that appjs had too many issues arising, and the original developer couldnt continue it anymore. So we are working on deskshell. Currently, it runs by using a build of Chromium, and adding switches to it in order to boot it up correctly. However, that makes a realyl large binary, and we do not have all the functions we may want.

So we have started making a new concept - and I have completed it. We will use CEF - chrome embedded framework - in order to create Deskshell. We, well me at the moment, will use nodejs as the top layer, entrence and preperation program. The main script is subject to change and accept a few options to decide what to do next. Since we have also a nice base of PHP users, we are going to use a "fake PHP" which is called ph7. It is an in-process PHP engine, based off the php-5.3 standart.

The concept is to have nodejs read a descriptive file, that gives it all of the informations that the engine may needs. Those information are passed to a module called deskshell-core. The core then looks up how to bootstrap everything. It opens up a new process with the bootstrap script - either using nodejs or ph7 as the engine for the script. Of course, pure html5 apps are possible too. By that, it will relaunch itself with an internal script that bootstraps a basic browser and lets it handle all the html content. We also can use CGI content such as php here - they will be interpreted by a subprocess in the router. If you bootstrap the engine with a script, you can add additional cgi.

The problem I faced though was, to create a GUI frontend that works cross platform for Mac, Windows and Linux. So I found wxWidgets that I used before for small toying. But wx works on all three platforms, so I looked up everything I could. Soon I found a wx extension for Chromium that we can use.

But what if we encounter an error while bootstraping the project? So I wanted to integrate wx - when I already have a static lib of it. So I came across your extension.

I need your help in so far, that I need to know if this extension is still valid and working. If so, it is going to become a tight part of Deskshell. :)

Sorry for being so talkactive like a waterfall, but I thought i should tell you what I am about to do ovo"

Kind regards, Ingwie.

After a lot of work and fumbling around, I managed to successfully port this to compile and work on Windows, https://github.com/Benvie/wxNode.
