用java电子书怎么打包？

Question

I need to build a desktop application which the GUI just to modify a configuration file and java application running as a window service (or cron job in linux) to do processing.

I was thinking to use electron as GUI and java as background. I quite like the idea of electron where I can use html and other web frameworks compare to JavaFX.

How can I package it together as an installer? Or any other ideas is welcome.

Thanks

Answer 1

Check out InstallBuilder 16 which is, unfortunately, quite pricey (around 2000$ for combined Windows/Linux install).

If you want to go open-source, try http://izpack.org/ .

Answer 2

I made something similar using sockets. I connect my Electron to my Java application via Socket (nodejs " net library). I can communicate bidirectional and sending a Java command I can open electron Window. I think this can be a solution even in your case.
