This fixes issue #417 where autoupdate installer files were not deleted
on macOS, leading to accumulation of old installers.
Key changes:
- Store update files in application-specific directory
- Clear update files directory on every app launch
Other supporting changes:
- Refactor file system operations to be more testable and reusable
- Improve separation of concerns in directory management
- Enhance dependency injection for auto-update logic
- Fix async completion to support `await` operations
- Add additional logging and revise some log messages during updates
This commit introduces a universal binary format in the distributed MDG
files for macOS, improving support for both Apple Silicon (ARM) and
Intel (x64) architectures.
It uses `electron-builder` to package both architectures into a single
executable, ensuring the application can natively on any macOS hardware
without depending on the GitHub runners' architecture. It fixes the
issue related to prior releases that supported only the architecture of
the build environment itself, which is subject to change.
Changes:
- Update DMG distribution to include both ARM64 and x64 architectures.
- Enhance system requirements documentation to reflect support for both
architectures.
- Modify CI/CD workflows to check desktop runtime errors for both ARM64
and x64 versions on macOS.
Resolves:
- Issue #348: Initial request for Apple Silicon support.
- Issue #362: Correction of distribution limited to ARM64 in release
0.13.3.
`electron-builder` support:
- electron-userland/electron-builder#5475
- electron-userland/electron-builder#5689
- electron-userland/electron-builder#5426
This commit improves the management of script execution process by
enhancing the way terminal commands are handled, paving the way for
easier future modifications and providing clearer feedback to users when
scripts are cancelled.
Previously, the UI displayed a generic error message which could lead to
confusion if the user intentionally cancelled the script execution. Now,
a specific error dialog will appear, improving the user experience by
accurately reflecting the action taken by the user.
This change affects code execution on Linux where closing GNOME terminal
returns exit code `137` which is then treated by script cancellation by
privacy.sexy to show the accurate error dialog. It does not affect macOS
and Windows as curret commands result in success (`0`) exit code on
cancellation.
Additionally, this update encapsulates OS-specific logic into dedicated
classes, promoting better separation of concerns and increasing the
modularity of the codebase. This makes it simpler to maintain and extend
the application.
Key changes:
- Display a specific error message for script cancellations.
- Refactor command execution into dedicated classes.
- Improve file permission setting flexibility and avoid setting file
permissions on Windows as it's not required to execute files.
- Introduce more granular error types for script execution.
- Increase logging for shell commands to aid in debugging.
- Expand test coverage to ensure reliability.
- Fix error dialogs not showing the error messages due to incorrect
propagation of errors.
Other supported changes:
- Update `SECURITY.md` with details on script readback and verification.
- Fix a typo in `IpcRegistration.spec.ts`.
- Document antivirus scans in `desktop-vs-web-features.md`.
- Create system requirements documentation for desktop versions,
addressing issue #134.
- Reorganize related documents into `docs/desktop` for improved
structure and accessibility.
- Update references to address ARM chip emulation issues noted in user
feedback, issue #348.
