Help needed with file association

Electron-builder: 10.17.3 Target: Windows 10

Hi there. I’m trying to use the fileAssociations option. First, this is how the code in the package.json is formed

  "build": {
    "win": {
      "target": [
        "nsis",
        "squirrel"
      ]
    }
  },
  "fileAssociations": [
    {
      "ext": [".mp3", ".wmv", ".wav", ".ogg"],
      "description": "Music file extension",
      "role": "none"
    }
  ],
  "nsis": {
    "perMachine": true
  },

It works fine, I mean, It doesn’t throws me any error. But!, when I install the app, there is no file associated to the app. I can choose Open with and and I do click over a mp3 file, the app is launched. If this is the behavior, sorry and there’s not an issue.

Secondly - this is a doubt -, when the app is launched by a file, how I can catch the path fo the file or the event emitted of being opened by the file. Thanks a lot for your time

I have an other question… if app is started from file association like electron-app /file/path.. how can I start App with an other param like electron-app --my-custom-parm -> this will be parsed like file path. It’s much better to have additional parameter for file association only like electron-app -open=/file/path.. Now I needs to catch and exclude any additional parameters from different sources like testing with spectron: --user-data-dir --use-mock-keychain
