Requires macOS version 10.15

[homeclubber]

V6.0 seems to require macOS version 10.15, i cant see any mention of this in the changelog.

I'm on 10.13 and would like to update.

[BobWs]

Same here I want to try this app in combo with navidrome but I can't install it in macOS 10.13 (High Sierra)!

[jeffvli]

What's the actual error that you're getting when trying to install? I bumped the electron version in the newest version but I didn't see any breaking changes regarding macOS version compatibility.

[homeclubber]

I get the following error why i try to run the package on 10.13.6

If i go into the package and run the executable i get the following report.

Got it, seems like I missed this breaking change on Electron v27.

Removed: macOS 10.13 / 10.14 support. I'll build a new release to fix this tomorrow.

[BobWs]

Same as @homeclubber ...

[BobWs]

I'm sorry but it still isn't working...keep getting the not compatible message (see screenshot)
I even tried to change the minimumVersion in the info.plist file but that didn't help.

[homeclubber]

same, running the executable gives the following

$ /Volumes/Feishin\ 0.6.1/Feishin.app/Contents/MacOS/Feishin ; exit;

Is anyone familiar with npm?

Try re-packaging the app yourselves while downgrading the electron version until it works. I don't have a macOS device to test which version in v26 actually works. Feishin used to use v25 but it was causing breakage in NixOS which is why it was upgraded to v27.

Tldr is:

1. Clone/download the repo
2. Make sure nodejs/npm is installed
3. Check electron v26 versions
4. Inside package.json file in the root directory, update the electron package version under devDependencies to a previous version
5. From bash/console, navigate to the root of the repo folder and run npm install (this needs to be run every time you change the electron version)
6. Run npm run package and wait for the app to build
7. Try running the new build inside the ./release/build folder

[homeclubber]

Could we go the other way and update the electron version?

[jeffvli]

From the Electron v27 changelog that I posted in my first comment, it documents that macOS 10.14 and 10.13 support was dropped in v27. But considering it still doesn't work in the latest version of v26 means that you need to downgrade.

I know for sure that Electron v25 works, but we need to find out which version if any v26 will work.

[BobWs]

Is is possible to just clone a version for macOS 10.13.* and Electron v25, and keep the rest on Electron v25.
This way you only need to keep one version for the older macOS and no need to keep it up-to-date with the latest Electron versions.
And for all the other users with newer macOS you can use the Electron v27 and up...
Just my 2 cents...
