How i can add to my appname and version wirh electron-react-boilerplate

Question

My app after npm run package looks like Electron React-4.4.0.AppImage

How can I change it to write a new version after every build?

I checked https://electron-react-boilerplate.js.org/docs/packaging

But it didn't work for me unfortunately.

Answer 1

If you mean renaming your aplication name, change content of package.json

{
  "name": "electron-react-4.4.0",
  "productName": "Electron React-4.4.0",
  "description": "Electron React-4.4.0 description ...",
  ...
 }

to

{
  "name": "your-app-name",
  "productName": "YourAppName",
  "description": "Your application description",
  ...
 }

After doing this you must delete node_modules and run npm install and than, after npm run package, will our app looks like YourAppName.AppImage

Answer 2

The version used for the package can be change in project/release/app/package.json not in the project/package.json. This has solve problem for me
