hamilton-labs/Electron-Publisher

Testing out publishing for Electron desktop apps including Linux, MacOS and Windows. Check out the releases! I recommend running them in VMs because they are far from production ready!

    Open the app from the Terminal on your Mac

  • Terminal - open path/to/electron-tutorial.app

• For DMG files installed via Terminal | For my power users ⚡ 😎

  Download the DMG image release.

   wget -P ~/Downloads https://github.com/hamilton-labs/Electron-Publisher/releases/download/v1.1.7-alpha/Hamilton.Labs.Installer.dmg
  

  Mount the installer to your file system.

   hdiutil attach ~/Downloads/Hamilton.Labs.Installer.dmg  
  
   or  
  
   hdiutil attach path/to/Hamilton.Labs.Installer.dmg
  

  If you're like me, you'll take a look around in there at this point. 🔍

    [Optional]  
    ls -al /Volumes/Hamilton.Labs.Installer.dmg  
  

  Copy the app to your applications folder (or wherever you'd like).

   sudo cp -R /Volumes/Hamilton.Labs.Installer/Hamilton\ Labs.app/ /Applications  
  

  Unmount the DMG installer.

   hdiutil unmount /Volumes/Hamilton.Labs.Installer  
  

  Enjoy! 😎

   open /Applications/Hamilton\ Labs.app  
  

  Or you could just download it from the releases page, then navigate to your downloads folder and just double-click the Hamilton.Labs.Installer.dmg as usual.
  (but where's the fun in that? 🤷🏾‍♂️)
