electron.restart blocked on before-quit task

[yannbertrand]

I have set up a project where I use electron-connect in a gulpfile. Whenever I do modifications inside my electron server I call the electron.restart task.

I've added listeners on electron's before-quit, will-quit and quit events to log when they're called. When I quit my app with a SIGKILL (ctrl+c) in my terminal, everything just works as excepted (before-quit -> will-quit -> quit). However when I update a server-side file, only the before-quit event is called and I need to quit the app itself to continue the process and restart the app.

I'm not sure where that comes from..

@YannBertrand could you share your sample code to help us recreate the issue and debug it? Github gist or repo with sample code would be great.

It seems that it comes from Socket.io. When I remove the script inside the index.html, it works.

i got the same problem. when i use electron-connect without watch files with babel compile, everything goes ok. but once i add babel compile to files, electron.restart blocked on before-quit task. When i remove the code require('electron-connect').client.create(window), electron.restart don't block, but it start the electron each time but not restart it,
