HostsFileEdit

Need to update project to use more recent version of Electron

HostsFileEdit is a small app that helps you edit your OS hosts file through a nice, minimalist UI.

• Add and remove as much hosts as you want
• Enable/disable host
• Import/Export a list of hosts
• Hosts in the app are separate from all other hosts set in the hosts file

Tested on Linux Ubuntu and OSX.

Dependencies

On Ubuntu, requires libgtk2.0-0, libgconf-2-4 (or any other v2 version).

Broken on Ubuntu 20 because using an old version of Electron

Todo

• Make it compatible with Windows
• Add tests

Dev

Get your machine ready

Be sure to have an installed node version quite recent (=>5). Get the latest version of npm sudo npm install npm -g.

Install bozon sudo npm install -g bozon.

Install app dependencies

$ npm install
$ cd app
$ npm install

Run

$ bozon start

Package

$ bozon package [linux, mac]

Builds the app for OS X, Linux, using electron-builder.

I had to install graphicsmagick, rpm and icnsutils on my Linux distrib in order to generate the Linux packages.
