## Install
* **Note: requires a node version >= 7 and an npm version >= 4.**
* **If you have installation or compilation issues with this project, please see [our debugging guide](https://github.com/chentsulin/electron-react-boilerplate/issues/400)**
First, clone the repo via git:
```bash
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/chentsulin/electron-react-boilerplate.git your-project-name
```
And then install dependencies with yarn.
```bash
$ cd your-project-name
$ yarn
```
**Note**: If you can't use [yarn](https://github.com/yarnpkg/yarn) for some reason, try `npm install`.
## Run
Start the app in the `dev` environment. This starts the renderer process in [**hot-module-replacement**](https://webpack.js.org/guides/hmr-react/) mode and starts a server that sends hot updates to the renderer process:
```bash
$ npm run dev
```
You Run these two commands __simultaneously__ in different console tabs:
```bash
$ npm run start-renderer-dev
$ npm run start-main-dev
```
## Editor Configuration
**Atom**
```bash
apm install editorconfig es6-javascript atom-ternjs javascript-snippets linter linter-eslint language-babel autocomplete-modules file-icons
```

## DevTools
#### Toggle Chrome DevTools
- OS X: <kbd>Cmd</kbd> <kbd>Alt</kbd> <kbd>I</kbd> or <kbd>F12</kbd>
- Linux: <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> <kbd>Shift</kbd> <kbd>I</kbd> or <kbd>F12</kbd>
- Windows: <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> <kbd>Shift</kbd> <kbd>I</kbd> or <kbd>F12</kbd>
*See [electron-debug](https://github.com/sindresorhus/electron-debug) for more information.*
#### DevTools extension
This boilerplate includes the following DevTools extensions:
* [Devtron](https://github.com/electron/devtron) - Install via [electron-debug](https://github.com/sindresorhus/electron-debug).
* [React Developer Tools](https://github.com/facebook/react-devtools) - Install via [electron-devtools-installer](https://github.com/GPMDP/electron-devtools-installer).
* [Redux DevTools](https://github.com/zalmoxisus/redux-devtools-extension) - Install via [electron-devtools-installer](https://github.com/GPMDP/electron-devtools-installer).
You can find the tabs on Chrome DevTools.
If you want to update extensions version, please set `UPGRADE_EXTENSIONS` env, just run:
```bash
$ UPGRADE_EXTENSIONS=1 npm run dev
# For Windows
$ set UPGRADE_EXTENSIONS=1 && npm run dev
```
:bulb: You can debug your production build with devtools by simply setting the `DEBUG_PROD` env variable:
```
DEBUG_PROD=true npm run package
```
## CSS Modules
This boilerplate is configured to use [css-modules](https://github.com/css-modules/css-modules) out of the box.
All `.css` file extensions will use css-modules unless it has `.global.css`.
If you need global styles, stylesheets with `.global.css` will not go through the
css-modules loader. e.g. `app.global.css`
If you want to import global css libraries (like `bootstrap`), you can just write the following code in `.global.css`:
```css
@import "~bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css";
```
## Sass support
If you want to use Sass in your app, you only need to import `.sass` files instead of `.css` once:
```js
import './app.global.scss';
```
## Packaging
To package apps for the local platform:
```bash
$ npm run package
```
To package apps for all platforms:
First, refer to [Multi Platform Build](https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/wiki/Multi-Platform-Build) for dependencies.
Then,
```bash
$ npm run package-all
```
To package apps with options:
```bash
$ npm run package -- --[option]
```
## Further commands
To run the application without packaging run
```bash
$ npm run build
$ npm start
```
To run End-to-End Test
```bash
$ npm run build
$ npm run test-e2e
```
#### Options
See [electron-builder CLI Usage](https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder#cli-usage)
## How to add modules to the project
You will need to add other modules to this boilerplate, depending on the requirements of your project. For example, you may want to add [node-postgres](https://github.com/brianc/node-postgres) to communicate with PostgreSQL database, or
[material-ui](http://www.material-ui.com/) to reuse react UI components.
⚠️ Please read following section before installing any dependencies ⚠️
### Module Structure
This boilerplate uses a [two package.json structure](https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/wiki/Two-package.json-Structure). This means, you will have two `package.json` files.
1. `./package.json` in the root of your project
1. `./app/package.json` inside `app` folder
### Which `package.json` file to use
**Rule of thumb** is: all modules go into `./package.json` except native modules. Native modules go into `./app/package.json`.
1. If the module is native to a platform (like node-postgres) or otherwise should be included with the published package (i.e. bcrypt, openbci), it should be listed under `dependencies` in `./app/package.json`.
2. If a module is `import`ed by another module, include it in `dependencies` in `./package.json`. See [this ESLint rule](https://github.com/benmosher/eslint-plugin-import/blob/master/docs/rules/no-extraneous-dependencies.md). Examples of such modules are `material-ui`, `redux-form`, and `moment`.
3. Otherwise, modules used for building, testing and debugging should be included in `devDependencies` in `./package.json`.
### Further Readings
See the wiki page, [Module Structure — Two package.json Structure](https://github.com/chentsulin/electron-react-boilerplate/wiki/Module-Structure----Two-package.json-Structure) to understand what is native module, the rationale behind two package.json structure and more.
For an example app that uses this boilerplate and packages native dependencies, see [erb-sqlite-example](https://github.com/amilajack/erb-sqlite-example).
## Static Type Checking
This project comes with Flow support out of the box! You can annotate your code with types, [get Flow errors as ESLint errors](https://github.com/amilajack/eslint-plugin-flowtype-errors), and get [type errors during runtime](https://github.com/codemix/flow-runtime) during development. Types are completely optional.
## Native-like UI
If you want to have native-like User Interface (OS X El Capitan and Windows 10), [react-desktop](https://github.com/gabrielbull/react-desktop) may perfect suit for you.
## Dispatching redux actions from main process
see discusses in [#118](https://github.com/chentsulin/electron-react-boilerplate/issues/118) and [#108](https://github.com/chentsulin/electron-react-boilerplate/issues/108)
## How to keep the boilerplate updated
If your application is a fork from this repo, you can add this repo to another git remote:
```sh
git remote add upstream https://github.com/chentsulin/electron-react-boilerplate.git
```
Then, use git to merge some latest commits:
```sh
git pull upstream master
```
