Function packager

Bundles Electron-based application source code with a renamed/customized Electron executable and its supporting files into folders ready for distribution.

Briefly, this function:

• finds or downloads the correct release of Electron
• uses that version of Electron to create a app in <out>/<appname>-<platform>-<arch>

Short example:

const packager = require('@electron/packager')

async function bundleElectronApp(options) {
  const appPaths = await packager(options)
  console.log(`Electron app bundles created:\n${appPaths.join("\n")}`)
}
