Clojurified Electron
My attempt to recreate ClojureScript development workflow while developing desktop apps with electron.
What is currently included
- ClojureScript (init script and ui code)
- Figwheel for interactive development
- Reagent for UI
- Advanced compilation with externs inference in release compilation targets
Running it
npm install electron -g # install electron binaries
Terminal
lein cooper # compile cljs and start figwheel
electron . # start electron from another terminal
Emacs REPL
lein cljsbuild once
M-x cider-jack-in-cljs figwheel
electron .
Releasing
lein do clean, cljsbuild once frontend-release, cljsbuild once electron-release
electron . # start electron to test that everything works
After that you can follow distribution guide for the electron.
The easiest way to package an electron app is by using electron-packager:
npm install electron-packager -g # install electron packager
electron-packager . HelloWorld --platform=darwin --arch=x64 --electron-version=1.4.8 # package it!
