Update to Node 18 #100

Open Pimentoso opened 1 year ago

Pimentoso commented 1 year ago

This is for updating the main libraries. The main driving cause for this, is that the old Node version was not installable on ARM Macs, so I couldn't release updates for Mac.

Updates include

Node to 18.14.2
Electron to 17.0.0
Johnny-five to latest repo version (until they make a proper release with updated serialport)
serialport to 10.5.0

Notes

App is still not compliant with context isolation. I need to find a johnny-five example that uses context isolation but they don't exist AFAIK
electron-settings is still on 3.0.0 because newer versions require removing it from the renderer process
includes #98

TODOs

check if postinstall script is actually needed anymore

This is now blocked, the program compiles and starts, but as soon as the arduino is connected to the USB port, it starts raising the error again. An issue has been opened on the J5 repo to ask for info. https://github.com/rwaldron/johnny-five/issues/1825
