尝试运行电子应用程序时找不到模块应用程序

Question

I have seen other questions about this but it is not the same.

Windows 7 x64 Node 6.6.0 electron 1.4.1 npm 3.19.8

My problem is that if I run npm start which calls electron . defined in my package.json the app runs fine. However if I just try to run electron . then I get the above error "Cannot find module app"

I think it must be path related but I can't figure it out. npm start is running the same command, I am running both commands in the root folder where main.js is located. I have also tried explicitly calling electron main.js with the same error.

Another note: when I run a debug session using Phpstorm it runs successfully. The debug configuration, Node interpreter = electron.cmd and Javascript File = main.js

Answer 1

I did the below change to fix the issue:

const {app,BrowserWindow} =require('electron')

app.on('ready',function(){
    var mainWindow= new BrowserWindow({
        height:600,
        width:600
    })
})
