How to add custom file to the app folder after build before package.

• Version: electron-builder 19.19.1

I’m using electron-builder to package my app into deb file. Now I need to add some native lib to app installation root folder manually (such as xxxx.so) on linux platform. because app got error GLIBCXX_3.4.21 not found in some pc with ubuntu14.04 sometimes. and putting higher version libstdc++.so to app’s root folder can solve the problem.

I checked the docs and didn’t find the solution. So if anyone can give me some advice? Thank you.

Could anyone suggest a solution for this:

I have to include a whole directory which contains JSON files which contains data relevant to the App. App uses the data from this directory. While building this directory (which is in the root project directory) is not being included.

I am also facing a similar issue. I have a .bat file that I have to execute when some setting in the Electron app is turned on. I am targeting Windows 10. But every time a build is created, it gives me error regarding the bat file not found.

You can see a part of the package.json in the above image. I have used the extraFiles attribute to inform the builder to include the vendor folder, this folder includes the .bat file. The vendor folder is stored in the root directory i.e., same as package.json directory.

I have also tried setting asar false, but this also did not work.

Any suggestion or advice is appreciated.
