@electron/download

Download Electron release artifacts

Usage

Simple: Downloading an Electron Binary ZIP

import { downloadElectron } from '@electron/download';

const zipFilePath = await downloadElectron('4.0.4');

Advanced: Downloading a macOS Electron Symbol File

import { downloadElectron } from '@electron/download';

const zipFilePath = await downloadElectron({
  version: '4.0.4',
  platform: 'darwin',
  assetName: 'electron',
  assetSuffix: 'symbols',
  arch: 'x64',
});

How It Works

This module downloads Electron to a known place on your system and caches it so that future requests for that asset can be returned instantly. The cache locations are:

• Linux: $XDG_CACHE_HOME or ~/.cache/electron/
• MacOS: ~/Library/Caches/electron/
• Windows: %LOCALAPPDATA%/electron/Cache or ~/AppData/Local/electron/Cache/
