As the title says, I am getting this error again and again whenever I am trying to change the browserwindow: TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'on')
According to my previous question, I had a problem with the import/export. Now that I found about ipcRenderer, I used it but still got an error:
Here is my main.js (index.js)
const { app, BrowserWindow, ipcRenderer } = require("electron")
var mainWindow = null
app.on("ready", () => {
mainWindow = new BrowserWindow({
"width": 500,
"height": 500,
"webPreferences": {
"contextIsolation": false,
"nodeIntegration": true,
},
"opacity": 0.7,
})
mainWindow.loadFile("src/html/welcome.html")
})
ipcRenderer.on("update", (event, args) => {
mainWindow.loadFile("src/html/update.html")
})
And let's say this is my any js file:
const { ipcRenderer } = require("electron")
ipcRenderer.send("update")
After running the above code, I get an error. Now I comment out the ipcRenderer.on() line, the app works as expected.
