Create Proton Native App
Create Proton Native apps with no build configuration. Works on Linux, MacOS and Windows.
Requirements
Tested with Node.js v10 (LTS).
Windows:
npm install --global --production windows-build-tools
Linux:
Install these packages.
Debian Based (.deb)
libgtk-3-dev build-essential python2-dev
Specifically
g++ make dpkg-devfrom
build-essential.
Red Hat Based (.rpm)
gtk3-devel gcc-c++ make rpm-build python2-devel
Usage
# install the cli npm install -g create-proton-app # create your proton native app create-proton-app my-app # got to your project directory and have fun! cd my-app npm run start
It will create a directory called
my-appinside the current folder.
Inside that directory, it will generate the initial project structure and install Proton Native dependencies:
my-app ├── node_modules ├── package.json ├── index.js └── .babelrc
Packaging
We use
electron-builderto handle the packaging for your application. Produces bundles for Linux(appImages, snaps, deb, rpm, ...) and MacOs. Windows support is unstable.
# build your app npm run build # bundle it npm run dist
Only a minimal build/packaging config is provided, as your application grows you should take a look to the documentation.
Contributing
We'd love to have your helping hand! - If you like this tool and have an idea of how to improve it or want to add an additional feature, create an issue explaining your idea. - Please, avoid using third party libraries for small/simple tasks, make sure we really need that library in our project, such a simple tool shouln't have lots of dependencies that at the same time have their own almost infinite dependency trees. - If something doesn’t work, please file an issue. - Be nice.
