electron-load-devtool

Easily Load devtools-extension for electron

Electron supports the Chrome DevTools Extension. But, it's a very bother. This module can load simply for your development environment. And, support some devtool-extensions like redux-devtools by default.

Install

$ npm install --save-dev electron-load-devtool

Usage

const electron = require('electron')
const loadDevtool = require('electron-load-devtool')

electron.app.on('ready', () => {
  const win = new electron.BrowserWindow({ width: 400, height: 400 })
  win.loadURL(`file://${__dirname}/index.html`)

  loadDevtool(loadDevtool.REDUX_DEVTOOLS)

  win.openDevTools()
})
