A NW.JS (Node-Webkit) yeoman generator for NW.js, [Bootstrap+Jquery] and Angular
Yeoman generator for NW.js (Node-Webkit). This generator is a fork of generator-wean but without express and with improved features
As well for slush
To install the generator:
npm install -g generator-nww
You need to have node, grunt, yo and bower installed globally before running the command. Therefore download node from the link and run:
npm install -g yo grunt bower
Scaffolding a NWW application works like every other Yeoman generator. If you have the generator installed, cd to an empty project directory and run:
yo nww
Interact with Yeoman to create the application.
NWW allows you to create a new controller, factory, service or provider, just run yo nww:controller homeCtrl for example. Generated files will be in js folder.
Also you can use sass in your project. For convert scss to css file you must run grunt watch, sure that file is in scss folder. Scss files also be coverted to css before building app.
The application will scaffold completely while generating but there are chances that npm and bower installation might not be successful, probably because of unstable internet connection as npm needs to download NW.js which is > 30mb therefore the application will not run.
If such case occurs, run npm install and sudo bower install --allow-root to complete the installation.
To run the NW application:
grunt or grunt run
Another amazing feature of this generator is that you can build to all mac, windows, and linux using a simple command. If you think you app is ready for consumption, run:
grunt build:{platform}
The platform placeholder can be win, mac, linux and all. Choose all to build for all the platforms. If the parameters are not specified, it builds for the current OS.
eg:
grunt build
grunt build:mac
grunt build:win
grunt build:linux
grunt build:all
Yeah. Icons. Icons are very easy to setup for mac and windows. Copy the .icns and .ico version of your icon named app-icon to the root of the project before building and that is all.
I will really appreciate any contributions to this project (no matter how little). Please use the guidelines
