MacOS-specific notes and instructions
Development Environment
Gridtracker uses NW (formerly known as node-webkit) to run. Install the correct version of NW.js from (nwjs.io)[https://nwjs.io/] for your operating system.
To run the app, just call macos/run.sh
from your local repository.
The script will download a copy of the right version of NWJS to the build/macos
directory and use it to
run GridTracker from the source files.
Building & Releasing
To package a version of GridTracker for distribution, update the NWJS version in macos/build.sh
as needed
and run ./macos/build.sh
from the top level of your local repository.
The script will download a copy of NWJS and follow the steps described
in the nwjs docs
to produce a GridTracker.app
macOS application in the dist
directory.
Troubleshooting
NWJS won't run GridTracker
If you see the error "The display compositor is frequently crashing"
it's most likely because of
this known issue that requires package.js
to
have a product_string
value of nwjs
, or not be present. The macos/run.sh
script takes care of
this for you, but if you want to run it in a different way, you'll have to manually edit package.json
and remember not to commit those changes upstream.
