Edge.js: run .NET and Node.js in-process on Electron

Package Exports

  • electron-edge-js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (electron-edge-js) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

.NET and Node.js in-process on Electron

This is a fork of edge-js adapted to support Electron.

Compatible with

  • Electron 1.4.x - Node.js v6.5.0.
  • Electron 1.6.x - Node.js v7.4.0.
  • Electron 1.7.x - Node.js v7.9.0.
  • Electron 1.8.x - Node.js v8.2.1.
  • Electron 2.0.x - Node.js v8.9.3.
  • Electron 3.0.x - Node.js v10.2.0.
  • Electron 4.0.x - Node.js v10.11.0.

Usage is the same as edge or edge-js, replace require('edge') or require('edge-js') with require('electron-edge-js'):

npm install electron-edge-js
-var edge = require('edge');
+var edge = require('electron-edge-js');

var helloWorld = edge.func(function () {/*
    async (input) => {
        return ".NET Welcomes " + input.ToString();
    }
*/});

Why use electron-edge-js?

Electron is built using specific version of Node.js. In order to use edge in Electron project you would need to recompile it using the same Node.js version.

electron-edge-js comes precompiled with correct Node.js versions.

Differences from electron-edge

  • Uses same codebase as edge-js that comes with both latest code changes from edge project and additional fixes and improvements available in edge-js project.
  • Supports majority of Electron versions.
