electron-angular-boilerplate's Issues

Instructions to 'bower install' after npm install

Otherwise there will be an error when running npm start.

Update Makefile to check for globals existence before install

Suggestion to use a more liberal License

Hi there and thanks for providing this skeleton publicly.
In my understanding it is intended as a starting point or as example code.
Unfortunately I cannot use it in my projects as it is licensed with GPL and my projects are either MIT/BSD or proprietary.

Would you consider adopting a different license?

Thanks for your attention!

missing live reload [watch]

is there any watch function on save?

Yeoman Generator

It would be nice to have this boilerplate as a Yeoman generator. [1]

That way it would be a lot easier to add this boilerplate to an existing project, or to scaffold a new project without having to clone a repository.

It can also allow you to choose different tools to use based on config (E.G LESS in stead of SASS, traceur instead of babel for ES6 etc)

build-sass failing due to comments in source

Swap around

.pipe(plugins.autoprefixer('last 10 versions'))

and

.pipe(plugins.sass({
  style: 'compressed'
})).on('error', handleError)

in the gulp file.

I found the answer here: nDmitry/grunt-autoprefixer#84

Add examples tests for Karma/JS

Add example tests for Jest

Out of date dependencies

Title. You can even watch your readme badges for that ;)

Update to NodeJS 4.2.4 LTS package

Its a more stable package for the Node environment on running Desktop apps

Hi Stephen,

First off, your boilerplate is awesome :D

The problem is when I run tests with 'npm test'. I get this at the end:

I hope you can help me. I am planning to use you boilerplate for a project but I need tests up and running.

Packaging for windows and linux fail if mac build exists

Overview of the Issue

The first thing I tested was building for Mac OS with

make mac-64

which created a working dmg application!!

Now I am going to try getting it to run on windows.

$ make windows-64
rm -rf build/win64
electron-packager . app --platform=win32 --arch=x64 --version=0.28.3 --out=build/win64

make: *** [windows-64] Error 1

Very strange that it seeks out mac stuff for building for windows.

First thing i'm going to try is removing the mac dist I had created before.

Now going to call to make all the apps and see if I can get a windows build.

$ make apps

make: *** [linux] Error 1

Good news:
A windows app was built and it runs on windows.

Bad news:
Linux failed after mac build! Now time to try and build a linux app with the mac app deleted.
One potential problem with the windows file is the long file path names, especially when you dive deep into some of these node modules. This might be fixed with the flatening that Node 6 does.

Ok so I deleted the mac64 folder and am keeping the win32 and win64 folders.

As expected, that worked:

$ make linux
rm -rf build/linux32
electron-packager . app --platform=linux --arch=ia32 --version=0.28.3 --out=build/linux32
(node:88992) fs: re-evaluating native module sources is not supported. If you are using the graceful-fs module, please update it to a more recent version.
Packaging app for platform linux ia32 using electron v0.28.3
Wrote new app to build/linux32/app-linux-ia32

Motivation for or Use Case

Be able to build apps for win32, win64, linux32 and linux64 without having to remove the already built mac app.
Running the command make apps should not fail

Operating Systems

Mac OSX 10.11

Reproduce the Error

Please see "Overview of the Issue" above for detailed steps to reproduce

Related Issues

None

Suggest a fix

Temporary work around is:
Move the mac to the bottom of the Makefile and run make clean-apps prior to make apps to ensure the mac build is not there.

New Folder Structure

Just a question and possibly a request.

How does the folder structure work. It's a bit confusing with /dist and /src and /views being in the same root. Instead of /app /app/src /app/views or

https://scotch.io/tutorials/angularjs-best-practices-directory-structure

Before first time run 'npm start',should also run 'bower install'

Otherwise, Wiredep will throw an error about cant find bower packages folder.

Maybe you could mention this in Readme.
