Top-level imports are causing problems in renderer

[seahindeniz]

Hello, I'm not sure if interprocess supports any other way to set handlers but following the suggested usage in https://github.com/daltonmenezes/interprocess#-usage section, and importing a dependency to use it in a handler that depends on fsevents.node creates a problem.

Is there a way to separate the shared ipcs file into each scope so that imported modules won't get interfere with renderer/main scopes?

Hi @seahindeniz , you can try declaring dependencies like that as external, for example, in electron-vite you can do this!

Also, you can handle the handler as callback on main process, so you avoid imports that can't be joined on both process:

ipcMain.handle.getPing(async (_, { getPing, data }) => {
  // call the registered handler if needed
  const response = await getPing(_, data)

  await ipcMain.invoke.getPong(mainWindow, 'pong')

  ipcMain.remove.getPing()

  return 'The getPong ipc was removed'
})

I'll try your suggestion. If it doesn't work out, I'll try to create a repro case
