# Using Pepper Flash Plugin
|
||||
|
||||
Pepper flash plugin is now supported. To use pepper flash plugin in Electron, you should manually specify the location of pepper flash plugin and then enable it in your application.
|
||||
|
||||
## Prepare a copy of flash plugin
|
||||
|
||||
On OS X and Linux, the detail of pepper flash plugin can be found by navigating `chrome://plugins` in Chrome browser. Its location and version are useful for electron's pepper flash support. You can also copy it to anywhere else.
|
||||
|
||||
## Add Electron switch
|
||||
|
||||
You can directly add `--ppapi-flash-path` and `ppapi-flash-version` to electron commandline or by `app.commandLine.appendSwitch` method before app ready event. Also, add the `plugins` switch of `browser-window`. For example,
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
var app = require('app');
|
||||
var BrowserWindow = require('browser-window');
|
||||
|
||||
// Report crashes to our server.
|
||||
require('crash-reporter').start();
|
||||
|
||||
// Keep a global reference of the window object, if you don't, the window will
|
||||
// be closed automatically when the javascript object is GCed.
|
||||
var mainWindow = null;
|
||||
|
||||
// Quit when all windows are closed.
|
||||
app.on('window-all-closed', function() {
|
||||
if (process.platform != 'darwin')
|
||||
app.quit();
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
// Specify flash path.
|
||||
// On Windows, it might be /path/to/pepflashplayer.dll
|
||||
// On Mac, /path/to/PepperFlashPlayer.plugin
|
||||
// On Linux, /path/to/libpepflashplayer.so
|
||||
app.commandLine.appendSwitch('ppapi-flash-path', '/path/to/libpepflashplayer.so');
|
||||
|
||||
// Specify flash version, for example, v17.0.0.169
|
||||
app.commandLine.appendSwitch('ppapi-flash-version', '17.0.0.169');
|
||||
|
||||
app.on('ready', function() {
|
||||
mainWindow = new BrowserWindow({
|
||||
'width': 800,
|
||||
'height': 600,
|
||||
'web-preferences':
|
||||
'plugins': true
|
||||
});
|
||||
mainWindow.loadUrl('file://' + __dirname + '/index.html');
|
||||
// Something else
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Enable flash plugin in a `<webview>` tag
|
||||
Add `plugins` attribute to `<webview>` tag.
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<webview src="http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/" plugins></webview>
|
||||
```
