不允许加载本地资源-Angle7和Electronic

Question

I am having issues working with electron. I am able to load my project perfectly with ng serve, but when I try to open with electron it shows this error in the developer tools

Not allowed to load local resource: file:///C:/Users/moise/Documents/Code/electron/electron-routing-test/electron/dist/dist/index.html

I have seen that some people fix it by changing their file path or package.json config but I can't find a fix

ELECTRON/MAIN.TS

import { app, BrowserWindow } from "electron";
import * as path from "path";
import * as url from "url";

let win: BrowserWindow;

app.on("ready", createWindow);

app.on("activate", () => {
  if (win === null) {
    createWindow();
  }
});

function createWindow() {
  win = new BrowserWindow({ width: 800, height: 600 });


  // win.loadURL(
  //   url.format({
  //     pathname: path.join(__dirname, `dist/project-name/index.html`),
  //     protocol: "file:",
  //     slashes: true
  //   })
  // );

  win.loadURL(`file://${__dirname}/dist/index.html`)

  win.webContents.openDevTools();

  win.on("closed", () => {
    win = null;
  });

}

You have two "dist" in your URL. I assume that you have this problem on production (When you try to open built electron app).

You need IF statement to load appropiorate URL.

if ( production ) {
  win.loadURL(`file://${__dirname}/index.html`); // It will load in production mode
} else {
  win.loadURL(`file://${__dirname}/dist/index.html`); // It will load in dev mode, when you run ng-serve
}
