Closed vamsideepak closed 1 year ago

vamsideepak commented 1 year ago

I am trying to work with gRPC in my electron application but grpc module is not working after building the electron application. Initially I tried with grpc node module but it is deprecated recently. So I tried with @grpc/grpc.js module and it is not working as expected. Below are the steps what I have done so far

npm install @grpc/grpc.js @grpc/grpc-protoloader. imported both grpc modules added grpc related code in my electron app. added .proto file after all the setup I tried to launch my electron application and getting the below error. ERROR Error: Uncaught (in promise): Error: Invalid package C:\Users\some-user\Desktop\MockServer\Trilogy_Client_Installer\node_modules\electron\dist\resources\electron.asar

That invalid package error doesn't say anything about gRPC. I don't think it's related.

That invalid package error doesn't say anything about gRPC. I don't think it's related. After removing thr grpc my electron application working as usual. The problem is with grpc module after building the application

@murgatroid99 When I import in the main process it is working but I want to use it in the renderer process too.

The error is about a file in the electron package. I think this is more likely to be an electron bug than a gRPC bug. I suggest filing an issue in the Electron repository.

@murgatroid99 thanks for the info . It was a problem with nodejs __dirname that i have used to get path . Issue has been resolved.
