50.0.0 / 2022-09-17

[BREAKING] Add validation to opening external URLs in desktop handler (fix #1459) This will, for security, refuse loading of certain external of two kinds. One: using dubious URL schemes, two: including nasty characters. Blocking URLs will be accompanied by a window explaining what's going on, and linking to a discussion thread where you can report false positives. Hopefully not BREAKING much (the behavior should now be aligned with what browsers do), but web weirdness happens. Shout and we'll tweak.

Also,

49.0.1 / 2022-08-28

49.0.0 / 2022-07-30

[BREAKING] 49.0.0 doesn't have more breaking changes than 48.0.0, but I'm releasing a new major release anyway to signal one particularly noteworthy breaking change in Electron 19 that I failed to pass along to you in 48.0.0: The ia32 arch (a.k.a. i386 or x86/32bit) is no longer supported.

People still running Nativefier apps on old ia32 machines, feel free to keep passing a flag --electron-version 18.x.y while it works. Note however that we won't be testing it, and future Nativefier versions may depend on upcoming Electron APIs that will crash your electron18-app-packaged-by-future-Nativefier. The deprecation is an upstream Electron decision, and there's nothing we will do about it. Thx @TheCleric for the catch.

Also,

  • macOS: Fix "main window cannot be activated" (fix #1415, PR #1417)

43.1.3 / 2021-05-15

👋 dear users. Two announcements in this release:

This release (43.1.3) is the last release supporting Node 10.x We do our best to support the oldest Node we can (what Debian stable ships), but we are also constrained by what our own Node dependencies require. It's time for a bump; the next release will be 44.0.0 and will require Node 12.

Also, introducing CATALOG.md, a list of build commands contributed by the Nativefier community, to help you nativefy "complicated" apps that need a bit of elbow grease to work. When stuck nativefying a specific site, go take a look, it might give you ideas :) .

  • Fix crash on tab close (only try to inject CSS for valid web requests) (#939, PR #1181)
  • Fix considering shop.foo.com and blog.foo.com as internal (PR #1171)
  • CATALOG.md: build command library (fix #1166) (PR #1178)
  • Bump to Electron 12.0.7

43.1.2 / 2021-05-03

  • Fix logging out users on upgrade / app recreate with same URL (fix #1176) (PR #1179)

43.1.1 / 2021-05-02

  • Fix crash in preload.js due to 3rd-party 'loglevel' (fix #1175, fix #1176) (PR #1177)

43.1.0 / 2021-05-01

This is a chunky release! Warm thanks to all the contributors that helped shape it, with a special shoutout to @TheCleric for a mountain of awesome work.

Features! (nothing breaking)

  • Add a --upgrade option to easily upgrade an existing app (fix #1131) (PR #1138)
  • Support defining a custom --bookmarks-menu (fix #1065) (PR #1155)

  • Support creating self-contained "--portable" apps writing their app data to the app folder (fix #376) (PR #1168)
  • Support opening URLs passed as arg to Nativefied apps (fix #405) (PR #1154)

Bugfixes!

  • App: fix child windows not inheriting mainWindow properties (including userAgent), breaking some Google login pages (#1174)
  • Fix --injecting multiple css/js files (fix #458) (#1162)
  • Fix --widevine by properly listening to widevine-... events (fix #1153) (PR #1164)

  • Auto-internal login pages: add test to ensure we don't regress on cases of SLDs
  • CI: run in node 16, drop node 15. Run less node versions for faster CI; oldest supported / latest is enough

43.0.2 / 2021-04-13

43.0.1 / 2021-04-11

  • Add a session-interaction event to allow injected js to interact with apps Electron session object (PR #1132)
  • Automatically-internal login pages: add Apple ID (PR #1146), GitHub 2FA (PR #1140)
  • Bump default Electron from 12.0.1 to 12.0.2 (with Chrome 89.0.4389.90)
  • Old build detection: bump old build threshold from 60 to 90 days

43.0.0 / 2021-03-10

  • [BREAKING] Bump to Electron 12.0.1 with Chrome 89.0.4389.82 See https://www.electronjs.org/blog/electron-12-0 and https://www.electronjs.org/docs/breaking-changes#planned-breaking-api-changes-120

    Noteworthy to Nativefier users:

    • As usual, new Chrome, with potential improvements/regressions to websites you use
    • Removed Flash support. If you still need flash, pass a <12 version to the -e flag
    • Removed support for older x86 CPUs that do not have SSE3

  • [BREAKING] Automatically consider known login pages as internal (fix #706) (PR #1124) URLs for known login pages (e.g. accounts.google.com or login.live.com) are now automatically considered internal, to let you login in your Nativefier app without having to fiddle with --internal-urls.

    This does not replace internal-urls, it complements it, and happens before your internal-urls rule is applied. So, if you already set the flag to let such auth pages open internally, you can change it if you want to clean it up, but it's not unnecessary.

    We think this is desirable behavior and are so far unaware of cases where users might not want this. If you disagree, please chime in at PR #1124: App: Automatically consider known login pages as internal

  • Various maintenance fixes: deps, scripts, slim down Docker size

42.4.0 / 2021-03-04

  • macOS: Prompt for accessibility permissions if needed by Global Shortcuts using Media Keys (fix #1120, PR #1121)
  • Icon conversion: support GraphicsMagick in addition to ImageMagick (PR #1002)
  • Docker: fix Windows builds, line endings, switch to Alpine (fix #997, PR #1122)
  • Fix considering "same domain-ish" URLs as internal (PR #1126) This was a regression introduced in 42.3.0 by dropping wurl in 6b266b781. The new behavior is super close to 42.2.1. So, not considering it breaking.
  • Various maintenance fixes: tooling, deps, CI

42.3.0 / 2021-02-25

  • Bump default Electron to 11.3.0 (with Chromium 87.0.4280.141). macOS-segfault-causing icon bug #1101 should remain fixed.

42.0.0 / 2020-12-06

This release includes several contributor patches. Thanks @sorhtyre @mattruzzi !

  • [BREAKING CHANGE] Warn on old Electron/Chrome (fix #556) (PR #1076) ⚠️ Users packaging kiosk apps running for a long time on internal websites, see https://github.com/nativefier/nativefier/blob/master/API.md#disable-old-build-warning-yesiknowitisinsecure
  • Check for improperly-formatted arguments (fix #885) (PR #1080)
  • Correctly start in tray when both --maximize and --tray start-in-tray are passed (fix #1015) (PR #1079)
  • Fix icon path error when passing asar --conceal flag (fix #975) (PR #1074)
  • Migrate from Travis CI to GitHub Actions
  • Bump default Electron to 11.0.3, bump dep eslint-config-prettier to 7.x

Also, bumping npm version to something far away from current Electron version.

Rationale for the nonsensical major version bump: around Nativefier 8.x, versions of Nativefier and Electron aligned, by release schedule coincidence. Since Nativefier has little breaking changes, it was great: as Electron releases are breaking, Nativefier had no breaking changes, I bumped our major version on new major Electron, and everything was good.

Except now, as I have a breaking change, which would bump Nativefier to 12.x, being annoyingly confusing since we'd still default to Electron 11 :-/ .

-> To keep respecting semver and reduce confusion, bumping Nativefier version to something far ahead of Electron versions. No it doesn't matter, version number are meaningless anyway (well, outside of semver, whose respect is precisely the point here).

Revamp and move to TypeScript (#898)

Breaking changes

Changes summary

Nativefier didn't get much love recently, to the point that it's becoming hard to run on recent Node, due to old dependencies. Also, some past practices now seem weird, as better expressible by modern JS/TS, discouraging contributions including mine.

Addressing this, and one thing leading to another, came a bigger-than-expected revamp, aiming at making Nativefier more lean, stable, future-proof, user-friendly and dev-friendly, while not changing the CLI/programmatic interfaces. Highlights:

  • Require Node>=8, as imposed by many of our dependencies. Node 8 is twice LTS, and easily available even in conservative Linux distros. No reason not to demand it.
  • Default to Electron 8.
  • Bump all dependencies to latest version, including electron-packager.
  • Move to TS. TS is great. As of today, I see no reason not to use it, and fight interface bugs at runtime rather than at compile time. With that, get rid of everything Babel/Webpack.
  • Move away from Gulp. Gulp's selling point is perf via streaming, but for small builds like Nativefier, npm tasks are plenty good and less dependency bloat. Gulp was the driver for this PR: broken on Node 12, and I didn't feel like just upgrading and keeping it.
  • Add tons of verbose logs everywhere it makes sense, to have a fine & clear trace of the program flow. This will be helpful to debug user-reported issues, and already helped me fix a few bugs.
    • With better simple logging, get rid of the quirky and buggy progress bar based on package progress. Nice logging (minimal by default, the verbose logging mentioned above is only used when passing --verbose) is better and one less dependency.
  • Dump async package, a relic from old callback-hell early Node. Also dump a few other micro-packages unnecessary now.
  • A first pass of code cleanup thanks to modern JS/TS features: fixes, simplifications, jsdoc type annotations to types, etc.
  • Remove GitHub integrations Hound & CodeClimate, which are more exotic than good'ol'linters, and whose signal-to-noise ratio is too low.
  • Quality: Add tests and add Windows + macOS CI builds. Also, add a manual test script, helping to quickly verify the hard-to-programatically-test stuff before releases, and limit regressions.
  • Fix a very small number of existing bugs. The goal of this PR was not to fix bugs, but to get Nativefier in better shape to do so. Bugfixes will come later. Still, these got addressed:

7.7.1 / 2020-01-23

  • Feature: proxy rules with --proxy-rules flag (PR #854)
