It should be obvious that it won't work for Angular 14 as well because there is no browser.js file in the path
"node_modules/@angular-devkit/build-angular/src/webpack/configs/browser.js"
Yes I was modifying browser.js as well, but now it's gone, and I find a new way:
My currently version: @angular/[email protected]", electron": "^24.1.3", "electron-builder": "^23.6.0".
APPROCH 1:
- You need the @angular-builders/custom-webpack, (for me, I just use the latest release and it is ^15.0.0, you may need to adjust in future)
npm install --save-dev @angular-builders/custom-webpack@^15.0.0
- update angular.json:
"your-app-name":{
"architect": {
"build": {
"builder": "@angular-builders/custom-webpack:browser",
"options": {
"customWebpackConfig": {
"path": "./extra-webpack.config.js"
},
"serve": {
"builder": "@angular-builders/custom-webpack:dev-server",
"options": {
"browserTarget":"your-app-name:build"
},
...
- extra-webpack.config.js
module.exports = {target:'electron-renderer'}
APPROCH 2: Here again we modify the config file :p
Your scripts now should update this file: node_modules\@angular-devkit\build-angular\src\webpack\configs\common.js
And make sure the target will be replaced to 'electron'-renderer' only.
replace old > target: [isPlatformServer ? 'node' : 'web', 'es2015'],
to > target: ['electron-renderer'],
