Upgrade dependencies and default to latest Electron 1.7.9 (PR #483)
* Update deps except eslint
* Update eslint and lint:fix (WIP, needs manual fixing for remaining 44 problems)
* Manually fix remaining eslint errors
* Document deprecation of `version-string` as of electron-packager 9.0.0
* Upgrade to Electron 1.7.9 (chrome-58, node-7.9.0, v8-5.8)
* npm: Disable generation of package-lock.json and gitignore it
  --Trying this, package-lock is a pain in PRs. May not be a good idea
  (obviously we lose deps pinning), will revert if necessary.--
* npm tasks: add dev-up-win for Windows developers,
  and e2e for end-to-end tests. Update docs.
* Move normalizeUrl test to a jest unit test, makes no sense to be in the mocha e2e tests
* Switch from babel-preset-es2015 to babel-preset-env,
  with target.node=4.0. Seem like it's today's most convenient
  way to support the latest ES and let babel transpile to what
  makes sense for our currently minimal node version

Development

Environment Setup

First, clone the project

git clone https://github.com/jiahaog/nativefier.git
cd nativefier

Install dependencies and build:

# macOS and Linux
npm run dev-up

# Windows
npm run dev-up-win

If dependencies are installed and you just want to re-build,

npm run build

You can set up a symbolic link so that running nativefier invokes your development version including your changes:

npm link

After doing so (and not forgetting to build with npm run build), you can run Nativefier with your test parameters:

nativefier <--your-awesome-new-flag>

Or you can automatically watch the files for changes with:

npm run watch

Tests

# To run all tests (unit, end-to-end),
npm test

# To run only unit tests,
npm run jest

# To run only end-to-end tests,
npm run e2e
