Rebuilding frida bindings

[jeanbmar]

@oleavr I've developed a one-liner to get the proper binaries since it could be a bit tedious to manually find the frida dependency, delete it and set the environment variables:

https://www.npmjs.com/package/frida-rebuild

Usage: npx frida-rebuild --runtime=electron --target=16.0.0

It will locate frida automatically and climb the directories if used in a workspace / monorepo.
Creating an issue so future users can find it from Google :).

Thank you very much for your help, but frida-Rebuild does not seem to work for the Nodev16 version of Electron

[jeanbmar]

It should work, I did use it, e.g. https://github.com/jeanbmar/black-moon-rewind/blob/master/packages/launcher/package.json
What's your error message?

Thank you very much for your reply. When I try to install frida for electronV17.1.0, I run the npx frida-rebuild -- Runtime =electron --target=17.1.0 command to build, and the following error occurs

> prebuild-install || node-gyp rebuild

Unfortunately I'm not sure Frida binaries for electron 17 are available yet

[moweixuanshou]

Thank you very much for your reply. I have tried the version of electron 16 and it can run normally. Thank you very much for helping me solve my most trouble this week
