v1.5.0 ^11.07.2018

v1.4.0 ^09.07.2018

• electron-builder was updated to 20.16.2 (once again thanks to devlar for accepting meteor-desktop specific pull requests PR electron-builder#2975)

v1.2.0 ^18.06.2018

• -i, --ignore-stderr [string] cli cmd added, normally using -b when meteor outputs anything to stderr the build gets terminated, but in some cases you might want to avoid that when for example npm package throws a deprecation warning into stderr, now you can make the build continue

Example - npm run desktop -- build-installer -b gets terminated because meteor run outputs a Node#moveTo was deprecated. Use Container#append. warning to stderr. This will kill your build and prevent from going further. Because clearly that is something we can live with you can go forward with:

npm run desktop -- build-installer -b -i "Node#moveTo"

You do not have to put the whole line, just any part of it that should only be found in that message.

FIXES

• fix #165 meteor:// protocol is now registered as secure origin
• bundler caching was disabled for production builds as you might have accidentally get a development desktop.asar build into your production build

v1.0.0 ^21.05.2018

Meteor App serving mechanism was changed to utilise registerStreamProtocol and serve the app on constant meteor://desktop url instead of setting a http server which serves over http://127.0.0.1:<random_port_on_every_start>.

This finally solves the longstanding problems with IndexedDB and localstorage not being persistent.

Please verify thoroughly if your app is working fine after this change and reports any problems you encounter.

The localstorage contents will be migrated if you are updating your app from pre 1.0.0.

However if you are using the meteor-desktop-localstorage plugin you have to make a migration yourself. The easiest way is to copy the plugin desktop code as your module in .desktop and on your app start get the contents with getAll and save them to the browser's localstorage.

• electron was updated to 2.0.1
• MD_LOG_LEVEL is now respected
• -d/--debug option added to run electron with --debug=5858 switch
• beforeLocalServerInit event added to the eventsBus
