Exception from outdated electron-config module on newer version of Electron
See original GitHub issueI’m using Electron 16.0.4 and am initializing the electron-push-receiver from the isolated context preload script in the renderer process. I’m getting this error on importing the module:
TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'app')
at new ElectronConfig (webpack-internal:///../node_modules/electron-config/index.js:8:47)
at eval (webpack-internal:///../node_modules/electron-push-receiver/src/index.js:12:16)
It appears that v1.0 of electron-config is making a check: electron.app || electron.remote.app. This throws since both are null in newer versions of Electron. It appears the new package for storing data is electron-store. I think it might be fixed just by updating to use that instead.
I was able to work around this by using the literal strings when listening for the push events rather than trying to import the values in the preload script.
"PUSH_RECEIVER:::START_NOTIFICATION_SERVICE"
"PUSH_RECEIVER:::NOTIFICATION_SERVICE_ERROR"
"PUSH_RECEIVER:::NOTIFICATION_SERVICE_STARTED"
"PUSH_RECEIVER:::NOTIFICATION_SERVICE_ERROR"
"PUSH_RECEIVER:::NOTIFICATION_RECEIVED"
"PUSH_RECEIVER:::TOKEN_UPDATED"
