atom-shell-packager

Build a distributable app from an atom-shell app source code directory. Currently only Mac OS is implemented but you can send PRs to implement windows/linux :)

For an example project using this, check out Monu

installation

npm i atom-shell-packager

usage

$ atom-shell-packager my-app-source-dir AppName

This will:

• Download latest version of Atom Shell
• Create a Mac app in cwd called AppName.app

You should be able to double-click AppName.app to launch the app. If not, check your settings and try again.

Be careful not to include node_modules you don't want into your final app. For example, do not include the node_modules/atom-shell-packager folder or node_modules/atom-shell. You can use --ignore=node_modules/atom-shell to ignore of these

options

these are optional CLI options you can pass in

• out (default current working dir) - the dir to put the app into at the end
• version (default hardcoded in source) - atom-shell version to use
• app-bundle-id - bundle identifier to use in the app plist
• helper-bundle-id - bundle identifier to use in the app helper plist
• ignore (default none) - do not copy files into App whose filenames regex .match this string
• prune - runs npm prune --production on the app
