How do I show the log in my electron app instead of in console?

[FormalSnake]

When my app is compiled, minecraft never seems to launch, unless I launch my compiled app from console (mac) So I want to show the log of the minecraft launcher in my electron app, doesn't matter if it's the entire electron log or not.

Like in prism launcher

Hi,

if you check the doc here, you'll see that the launch method return a NodeJS child process. You can try to plug your log window on it to retrieve the logs and the game status.

at the monent, i am trying to do it like this:

launcher.on("data", (e) =>
        mainWindow.webContents.send("asynchronous-message", e)
      );

Could this work?

yes, it is also possible to use this method.
