This document describes how to configure an Electron project for the GME APIs for Electron.
Windows
Importing the SDK
Step 1: Install Node.js
1. Download the latest version of the Node.js installation package Windows Installer (.msi) 64-bit
for Windows.
2. Open Node.js command prompt
in the application list and open a terminal window.
Step 2. Install Electron
Run the following command in the terminal to install Electron. V4.0.0 or later is recommended.
$ npm install electron -g
Step 3. Install the GME SDK for Electron
1. Use the following npm command in your Electron project to install the GME SDK:
$ npm install gme-electron-sdk@latest --save
2. In the project script, import and use the module:
const { GmeContext } = require('gme-electron-sdk');
// import gmesdk from 'gme-electron-sdk';
gmeContext = new GmeContext();
// Get the SDK version number
gmeContext.GetSDKVersion();
Step 4. Create an executable program
Install the packaging tool. We recommend you use Electron Forge. You can run the following command:
1. Add Electron Forge to your application's development dependencies and run the import
command to set the scaffold of Forge:
npm install --save-dev @electron-forge/cli
npx electron-forge import
2. Run the make
command of Forge to create a distributable application:
