@ -14,35 +14,29 @@ on each Chromium upgrade in Electron.
### Steps
### 1. Get the code and initialize the project:
```sh
$ git clone git@github.com:electron/libchromiumcontent.git
$ cd libchromiumcontent
$ ./script/bootstrap -v
```
### 2. Update the Chromium snapshot
- Choose a version number from [OmahaProxy](https://omahaproxy.appspot.com/) and update the `VERSION` file with it
- This can be done manually by visiting OmahaProxy in a browser, or automatically:
- One-liner for the latest stable mac version: `curl -so- https://omahaproxy.appspot.com/mac > VERSION`
- One-liner for the latest win64 beta version: `curl -so- https://omahaproxy.appspot.com/all | grep "win64,beta" | awk -F, 'NR==1{print $3}' > VERSION`
- run `$ ./script/update`
- Time to brew some tea -- this may run for 30m or more.
- It will probably fail applying patches.
### 3. Fix `*.patch` files in the `/patches` and `/patches-mas` folders.
### 4. (Optional) Run a separate script to apply patches (`script/update` uses it internally):
```sh
$ git clone git@github.com:electron/libchromiumcontent.git
$ cd libchromiumcontent
$ ./script/bootstrap -v
```
### 2. Find the new beta/stable Chromium version from [OmahaProxy](https://omahaproxy.appspot.com/).
### 3. Put it into the `libchromiumcontent/VERSION` file, then run `$ ./script/update`
- It will probably fail applying patches.
### 4. Fix `*.patch` files in the `/patches` and `/patches-mas` folders.
### 5. (Optional) Run a separate script to apply patches (`script/update` uses it internally):
```sh
$ ./script/apply-patches
```
- There is also another script `/script/patch.py` that could be more useful, check `--help` to learn how it works with `$ ./script/patch.py -h`
### 5. Run the build when all patches can be applied without errors
### 6. Run the build when all patches can be applied without errors
```sh
$ ./script/build
```
- If some patches are no longer compatible with the Chromium code, fix compilation errors.
### 6. When build succeeds, create a `dist` for Electron
### 7. When build succeeds, create a `dist` for Electron
`$ ./script/create-dist --no_zip`
- It will create `dist/main` folder in the root of the libcc repo, you will need it to build Electron.
### 7. (Optional) Update script contents if there are errors resultant of some files being removed or renamed. (`--no_zip` prevents script from create `dist` archives, you don't need them.)
### 8. (Optional) Update script contents if there are errors resultant of some files being removed or renamed. (`--no_zip` prevents script from create `dist` archives, you don't need them.)
