I use Electron to rebuild a ready web app. the electron main.js is simple:
// Modules to control application life and create native browser window
const {app, BrowserWindow} = require('electron')
// Keep a global reference of the window object, if you don't, the window will
// be closed automatically when the JavaScript object is garbage collected.
let mainWindow
function createWindow () {
// Create the browser window.
mainWindow = new BrowserWindow({
width: 1600,
height: 900
})
// and load the index.html of the app.
mainWindow.loadFile('dist/mysite/index.html')
// Open the DevTools.
// mainWindow.webContents.openDevTools()
// Emitted when the window is closed.
mainWindow.on('closed', function () {
// Dereference the window object, usually you would store windows
// in an array if your app supports multi windows, this is the time
// when you should delete the corresponding element.
mainWindow = null
})
}
// This method will be called when Electron has finished
// initialization and is ready to create browser windows.
// Some APIs can only be used after this event occurs.
app.on('ready', createWindow)
// Quit when all windows are closed.
app.on('window-all-closed', function () {
// On macOS it is common for applications and their menu bar
// to stay active until the user quits explicitly with Cmd + Q
if (process.platform !== 'darwin') {
app.quit()
}
})
app.on('activate', function () {
// On macOS it's common to re-create a window in the app when the
// dock icon is clicked and there are no other windows open.
if (mainWindow === null) {
createWindow()
}
})
when i use 'electron .' run the app, it works good except the line with location. The app code below is the login submit form action. After login there is one line 'location.reload()' not work:
this.http.post(this.url + ':8000/' + 'auth/jwt/create/', this.validateForm.value)
.subscribe((res: any) => {
localStorage.setItem('token', res.token);
// This LINE NOT WORK
location.reload();
// //////
// this.router.navigate([this.router.url]);
// this.router.navigate(['./']);
console.log(location);
}, (err: any) => {
if (err.status === 400) {
this.msg = err.error.non_field_errors[0];
console.log(err);
} else {
this.msg = err;
console.log(err);
}
this.isVisible = true;
});
I try lots of ways to make the web go to the target url but failed. location.reload() location.replace router.navigate all not work. When I use 'ng serve' and open site with chrome, 'location.reload()' has no problem. So what should I do ? Thank you.
EDIT:
after location.reload() executed , the page go to blank. and when console.log(location), the href is chrome-error://chromewebdata/
console.log(location)
Location {replace: ƒ, assign: ƒ, href: "chrome-error://chromewebdata/", ancestorOrigins: DOMStringList, origin: "null", …}
