electron-mksnapshot
Advanced tools
Simple node module to download the mksnapshot binaries compatible with
Electron for creating v8 snapshots.
The major version of this library tracks the major version of the Electron
versions released. So if you are using Electron 2.0.x you would want to use
an electron-mksnapshot dependency of ~2.0.0 in your package.json file.
npm install --save-dev electron-mksnapshot
mksnapshot.js file.js (--output_dir OUTPUT_DIR).
Running mksnapshot.js will generate both a snapshot_blob.bin and v8_context_snapshot.bin files which are needed to use custom snapshots in Electron. If an output directory isn't specified, the current directory will be used. (Additional mksnapshot args except for --startup_blob are supported, run mksnapshot --help to see options)
You can set the ELECTRON_MIRROR or NPM_CONFIG_ELECTRON_MIRROR
environment variables to use a custom base URL for downloading mksnapshot zips.
# Electron mirror for China
ELECTRON_MIRROR="https://npm.taobao.org/mirrors/electron/"
# Local mirror
# Example of requested URL: http://localhost:8080/1.2.0/mksnapshot-v1.2.0-darwin-x64.zip
