Errors building on Arch Linux

[Verequies]

Hello,

I have just tried building this project, unfortunately I am met with an error:

error during build:
Error: [vite]: Rollup failed to resolve import "intro.js" from "/home/AUR/nvm-desktop/src/nvm-desktop.git/node_modules/intro.js-react/dist/esm/components/Steps/index.mjs".
This is most likely unintended because it can break your application at runtime.
If you do want to externalize this module explicitly add it to
`build.rollupOptions.external`

This can be fixed by adding 'intro.js' to the package.json. After running 'yarn add intro.js' the build was successful.

After getting the build to work and packaging it. I receive the following error (debug output enabled:

Thus far I have not been able to figure out what is causing it. It does work when running from 'releases/build/linux-unpacked/nvm-desktop' but not from the installed/packaged directory.

This can be fixed by adding 'intro.js' to the package.json. After running 'yarn add intro.js' the build was successful.

Have you tried building using pnpm, maybe you can try it. I checked the intro.js-react package and it does require intro.js as a pre-dependency. It's unclear to me if this is due to differences between yarn and pnpm. But thank you very much for pointing this out. 🌹

Error [ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND]: Cannot find package 'electron-updater' imported from /opt/nvm-desktop/resources/app.asar/dist/main/main.mjs

I'm not sure if your code is up to date. You can check the electron.vite.config.ts file and do not enable externalizeDepsPlugin under the main option.

  main: {
    resolve: {
      alias: {
        "@src": resolve("src")
      }
    },
    build: {
      rollupOptions: {
        input: isTest ? "src/main/main.test.ts" : "src/main/main.ts",
        output: {
          entryFileNames: "main.mjs",
          inlineDynamicImports: true,
          format: "es"
        }
      }
    },
    plugins: [del({ targets: ["release/app/dist", "release/build"] })] // this line
  },

And did you build it using the Linux platform? Currently, I don't have a Linux device. Some problems may not be discovered and solved in time, and you may need to provide some additional information.

[Verequies]

Thanks for your reply :) I tried both pnpm and yarn but neither worked until I added intro.js. There were some references online saying to try this, and it indeed fixed that error.

With the runtime error, it seems I may have solved it by using the latest git commit rather than the 3.0.0 tag. However I did have to remove the unused useRef as below:

src/renderer/src/pages/home/setting.tsx:1:16 - error TS6133: 'useRef' is declared but its value is never read.

1 import { memo, useRef, useState } from "react";

Thank you for your feedback. Anyway I will add intro.js to dependencies to avoid this error.

src/renderer/src/pages/home/setting.tsx:1:16 - error TS6133: 'useRef' is declared but its value is never read.

Yes it was a ts type checking error, I fixed it locally. However, due to some additional work(use esbuild instead of rollup to compile), the code has not been submitted yet, please understand.

[Verequies]

No worries, I understand :) App works pretty well so far now that it is building and running!

[1111mp]

The latest code from the current main branch should work fine.

Then I will close this issue first. Of course, if you have any questions later, you can reopen it at any time. Thanks.
