# Upgrading Chrome Checklist
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This document is meant to serve as an overview of what steps are needed
|
|
|
|
on each Chrome upgrade in Electron.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These are things to do in addition to updating the Electron code for any
|
|
|
|
Chrome/Node API changes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Verify the new Chrome version is available from
|
|
|
|
https://github.com/zcbenz/chromium-source-tarball/releases
|
|
|
|
- Update the `VERSION` file at the root of the `electron/libchromiumcontent`
|
|
|
|
repository
|
|
|
|
- Update the `CLANG_REVISION` in `script/update-clang.sh` to match the version
|
|
|
|
Chrome is using in `libchromiumcontent/src/tools/clang/scripts/update.py`
|
|
|
|
- Upgrade `vendor/node` to the Node release that corresponds to the v8 version
|
|
|
|
being used in the new Chrome release. See the v8 versions in Node on
|
|
|
|
https://nodejs.org/en/download/releases for more details
|
|
|
|
- Upgrade `vendor/crashpad` for any crash reporter changes needed
|
|
|
|
- Upgrade `vendor/depot_tools` for any build tools changes needed
|
|
|
|
- Update the `libchromiumcontent` SHA-1 to download in `script/lib/config.py`
|
|
|
|
- Open a pull request on `electron/libchromiumcontent` with the changes
|
|
|
|
- Open a pull request on `electron/electron` with the changes
|
|
|
|
- This should include upgrading the submodules in `vendor/` as needed
|
|
|
|
- Verify debug builds succeed on:
|
|
|
|
- macOS
|
|
|
|
- 32-bit Windows
|
|
|
|
- 64-bit Window
|
|
|
|
- 32-bit Linux
|
|
|
|
- 64-bit Linux
|
|
|
|
- ARM Linux
|
|
|
|
- Verify release builds succeed on:
|
|
|
|
- macOS
|
|
|
|
- 32-bit Windows
|
|
|
|
- 64-bit Window
|
|
|
|
- 32-bit Linux
|
|
|
|
- 64-bit Linux
|
|
|
|
- ARM Linux
|
|
|
|
- Verify tests pass on:
|
|
|
|
- macOS
|
|
|
|
- 32-bit Windows
|
|
|
|
- 64-bit Window
|
|
|
|
- 32-bit Linux
|
|
|
|
- 64-bit Linux
|
|
|
|
- ARM Linux

## Verify ffmpeg Support
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
Electron ships with a version of `ffmpeg` that includes proprietary codecs by
|
|
|
|
default. A version without these codecs is built and distributed with each
|
|
|
|
release as well. Each Chrome upgrade should verify that switching this version is
|
|
|
|
still supported.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can verify Electron's support for multiple `ffmpeg` builds by loading the
|
|
|
|
following page. It should work with the default `ffmpeg` library distributed
|
|
|
|
with Electron and not work with the `ffmpeg` library built without proprietary
|
|
|
|
codecs.
