Uncaught TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "path" argument must be of type string. Received type undefined

type error with version 1.3.0 Uncaught TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "path" argument must be of type string. Received type undefined

[jbreckmckye]

Hmm. Could you post a stacktrace? I'm curious where this could be coming from. Or is this happening during build?

[samuelkampf]

it may be because im using angular its not possible to import this into a component is it?

[danteata]

I get the same error as well.

@danteata Do you get the same issue with v1.1.0? I'm wondering whether this is a problem with the latest build

[samuelkampf]

The problem only occurs if you use it inside an app if you import and use it in main it works but anywhere else it errors

Ah. Thanks for that insight @samuelkampf. Yeah, there is a line about this in the readme, but it's a bit hidden -

In a module available to your main process code (e.g. auth.ts): {setup code }

I will try and make this a bit clearer.

[samuelkampf]

yeah thats the only downfall about it there is no way to call it inside of angular. I ended up switching over to firebase which imo is much better than auth0's aio solution

one work around is to serve your entire electron app from express then u can call from localhost using auth0 lock etc

[danteata]

Thanks for clarifying @jbreckmckye. Using in the main process code worked.

[jbreckmckye]

I've updated the docs to make this a bit more obvious.
