Flip Electron Fuses and customize your packaged build of Electron

Usage

import { flipFuses, FuseVersion, FuseV1Options } from '@electron/fuses';

await flipFuses(
  require('electron'), // Returns the path to the electron binary
  {
    version: FuseVersion.V1,
    [FuseV1Options.RunAsNode]: false, // Disables ELECTRON_RUN_AS_NODE
    [FuseV1Options.EnableCookieEncryption]: true, // Enables cookie encryption
  },
);

Apple Silicon

For arm64 macOS builds of your app if you are not immediately codesigning your app after flipping the fuses you will need to pass resetAdHocDarwinSignature: true to the flipFuses method. Otherwise the app will refuse to launch with code signature validation errors. This is a new security measure on Apple Silicon devices.

import { flipFuses, FuseVersion, FuseV1Options } from '@electron/fuses';

await flipFuses(
  require('electron'),
  {
    version: FuseVersion.V1,
    resetAdHocDarwinSignature: targetPlatform === 'darwin' && targetArch === 'arm64',
    [FuseV1Options.RunAsNode]: false,
  },
);
