Usage

To use this, we need to install the function in main and preload scripts.

In the main script we can install the setup via the setup method from ApplicationAutoUpdater instance like this.

import { BrowserWindow, ipcMain } from 'electron';
import { autoUpdater } from 'electron-updater';
import { ApplicationAutoUpdater } from 'vue-electron-updater/main';

const applicationUpdater = new ApplicationAutoUpdater(
  autoUpdater,
  new BrowserWindow({
  }), 
  ipcMain
);
applicationUpdater.setup({
  isDev: true,
  port: 5050
});

In the preload script, we can install the setup via the function setupPreload.

import { contextBridge, ipcRenderer } from 'electron';
import { setupPreload } from 'vue-electron-updater/preload';

setupPreload(contextBridge, ipcRenderer);

In Vue, we need to install the plugin:

import { createApplicationUpdater } from 'vue-electron-updater/vue';

app.use(createApplicationUpdater());
