How to add dlls to application package

See original GitHub issue

Hi! Maybe I’ve missed something… How can I add dll libraries to application installation package? The dlls must be at the same (package’s root) folder where MyApp.exe located (node.dll and others).

Do there exist any working solution exists for now?

No. But once will be a proposal, it will be implemented. Since today is Friday, you can expect working solution on Monday.

I like your proposal.

@develar thanks for answering! Are you just planning this feature? Do there exist any working solution for adding extra resources, maybe a hack?

If you ask me, I love gulp’s style of pattern matching. Files and folders can be specified. ! symbol at the beginning of rule means exclusion. extraResources may be different for each platform. For example:

"build": {
    //...
    "extraResources":  [
    //    "common"
    ],
    "win": {
         // ...
         "extraResources":  [
              "./*.dll",
              "!./exclude-me.dll"
         ],
    },
    "osx": {
         // ...
         "extraResources":  [
              // osx-specific
         ],
    },
}
