Errors thrown by use of electron.net.request
See original GitHub issueUnder electron 1.6.2 I tried running installExtension in the renderer process, but it threw all sorts of errors which appeared to be related to the use of electron.net.request (if I changed https://github.com/MarshallOfSound/electron-devtools-installer/blob/master/src/utils.js#L13 to use http.request it worked fine).
I switched to running installExtension in the main process in the app.on('ready' event handler, that works great.
I’m not sure if there’s a bug here regarding the use of electron.net.request or if the documentation just needs updating to indicate where to run installExtension

Same error here
@Polarisation Dayum, I had those errors on one machine a few weeks back but couldn’t figure out what was causing it. Guess it was
networking from the renderer process causing the issues on a machine that hadn’t used Electron before. Will investigate that issue upstream 👍
