How to Contribute

Package app

Builds app binaries for OS X, Linux, and Windows.

To build for one platform:

$ npm run build -- [platform]

Where [platform] is darwin, linux, win32, or all (default).

The following optional arguments are available:

• --sign - Sign the application (OS X, Windows)
• --package=[type] - Package single output type.
  • deb - Debian package
  • zip - Linux zip file
  • dmg - OS X disk image
  • exe - Windows installer

Note: Even with the --package option, the auto-update files (.nupkg for Windows, *-darwin.zip for OS X) will always be produced.

Windows build notes

To package the Windows app from non-Windows platforms, Wine needs to be installed.

On OS X, first install XQuartz, then run:

brew install wine

(Requires the Homebrew package manager.)
