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 fixes an issue seen on certain Windows environments (Windows
10 22H2 and 11 23H2 Pro Azure VMs) where scripts were being deleted
during execution due to temporary directory usage. To resolve this,
scripts are now stored in a persistent directory, enhancing reliability
for long-running scripts and improving auditability along with
troubleshooting.
Key changes:
- Move script execution logic to the `main` process from `preloader` to
utilize Electron's `app.getPath`.
- Improve runtime environment detection for non-browser environments to
allow its usage in Electron main process.
- Introduce a secure module to expose IPC channels from the main process
to the renderer via the preloader process.
Supporting refactorings include:
- Simplify `CodeRunner` interface by removing the `tempScriptFolderName`
parameter.
- Rename `NodeSystemOperations` to `NodeElectronSystemOperations` as it
now wraps electron APIs too, and convert it to class for simplicity.
- Rename `TemporaryFileCodeRunner` to `ScriptFileCodeRunner` to reflect
its new functinoality.
- Rename `SystemOperations` folder to `System` for simplicity.
- Rename `HostRuntimeEnvironment` to `BrowserRuntimeEnvironment` for
clarity.
- Refactor main Electron process configuration to align with latest
Electron documentation/recommendations.
- Refactor unit tests `BrowserRuntimeEnvironment` to simplify singleton
workaround.
- Use alias imports like `electron/main` and `electron/common` for
better clarity.
This commit introduces several improvements to the macOS update process,
primarily focusing on enhancing security and reliability:
- Add data integrity checks to ensure downloaded updates haven't been
tampered with.
- Optimize update progress logging in `streamWithProgress` by limiting
amount of logs during the download process.
- Improve resource management by ensuring proper closure of file
read/write streams.
- Add retry logic with exponential back-off during file access to handle
occassionally seen file system preparation delays on macOS.
- Improve decision-making based on user responses.
- Improve clarity and informativeness of log messages.
- Update error dialogs for better user guidance when updates fail to
download, unexpected errors occur or the installer can't be opened.
- Add handling for unexpected errors during the update process.
- Move to asynchronous functions for more efficient operation.
- Move to scoped imports for better code clarity.
- Update `Readable` stream type to a more modern variant in Node.
- Refactor `ManualUpdater` for improved separation of concerns.
- Document the secure update process, and log directory locations.
- Rename files to more accurately reflect their purpose.
- Add `.DS_Store` in `.gitignore` to avoid unintended files in commits.
