Filename path

I can’t get nedb to load/creata a database file on a specific location with NWjs. Is this possible? For example I would like to use a single database stored on a network folder for multiple instances of NWjs.

var location= path.dirname(process.execPath)+"\\app\\db\\database.json";
var db = new Nedb({ filename: test, autoload: true });

What’s the file path expected when is compiled into an executable file. For instance, in macOS my project works fine when running it with npm start

But, after packaging it with electron-package and attempting to execute it, the error is appears stating that Uncaught Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open filename - datastore.js:77

Where is supposed to be located the db file after application is packaged? Have been tested the NeDB on compiled apps? If so, what’s the path to use?

Hi @Oscarato This is my mistake. Its working fine now. I have used app.getAppPath() instead of app.getPath(‘userData’)

var electron = require('electron');
const app = electron.remote.app;
var userData = app.getAppPath('userData');   <-------- Here i made issues this is app.getPath('userData')
db = new Datastore({ filename: userData+'/db/persons.db', autoload: true });

Thank You 😃
