Use Nearby Live on your OS X or Linux desktop.
This is a unoffical app !
built with :
- Angular
- Electron
- Photon
- Semantic UI
- ....
Global dependencies:
npm install -g gulp
Local dependencies:
npm install
OS x releases
For OS X releases, you need an OS X machine.
Linux releases
If you want to build deb and rpm packages for Linux, you need fpm. To quickly install it on OS X: https://github.com/jordansissel/fpm#system-packages
sudo gem install fpm
brew install rpm
Windows releases
For Windows releases, you need a Windows machine. The packaging tasks only work on Windows due to their dependencies: Squirrel.Windows and Microsoft's SignTool. To sign the app, make sure you have SignTool.exe in your PATH.
Sign the installer
The pack:win32:installer task uses Squirrel.Windows to create the installer. Squirrel will also sign the app and the installer itself. You just need these env vars:
SET SIGN_WIN_CERTIFICATE_FILE=C:\SuperKit\cert.pfx
SET SIGN_WIN_CERTIFICATE_PASSWORD=DaenerysTargaryen
Sign the portable app
The pack:win32:portable task just creates a zip with all the files in ./build/win32. But before that, it uses SignTool.exe to sign the app executable. Again, make sure you have the env vars listed above set.
OS X
set these env vars:
export SIGN_DARWIN_IDENTITY="anything "
export SIGN_DARWIN_KEYCHAIN_NAME="/Users/brian/Library/Keychains/CertificatesChain.keychain"
export SIGN_DARWIN_KEYCHAIN_PASSWORD="NaNnullUndefinedWhatever"
