* chore: add GN linter
* chore: fix GN lint errors
* try some crazy bash to get a gn exe
* base64 on linux is different
* cloning build_tools doesn't download GN
* download_from_google_storage needs depot_tools in the path
* fixup! chore: add GN linter
* chore: remove duplicate and un-needed files from dist zips
* Strip chromedriver binaries
Also, fix path for files to skip
* Don't strip mksnapshot for now
Mksnapshot needs special handling for arm/arm64 because there is both an x86 and arm/arm64 binary in those cases.
* chore: stop using electron.gyp for version info
* chore: remove branding info from electron.gyp
* Use get_electron_branding instead of gn read
* Flip project_name/product_name
* ci: migrate libcc's Dockerfile to electron and update it
* Added nano and sudo
* Use new docker image in CircleCi
* installing nodejs needs curl
* Add needed dependencies
nacl contains dependencies needed for arm and ia32 builds
Make sure certain paths/files don't make it into the dist zip
Don't build the content shell test_runner
Make sure libffmpeg.dylib gets put in the right place
Run verify-ffmpeg on Mac builds
Add ffmpeg build to VSTS
* build: remove common/icu/no_inline_default_constructor.patch
It was added in https://github.com/electron/libchromiumcontent/pull/207,
the issue is no longer valid in the GN build.
* build: remove common/icu/build_gn.patch
In GN release build all code including node are linked
statically in a single binary, the workaround is no longer valid.
* build: remove ununsed patches
* build: remove is_electron_gn_build arg
* build: remove component mode crt config patch
* build: remove executable config patch for character_data_generator
* build: remove latency_info.patch
* build: remove exec_script_whitelist patch
* build: update patches/common/v8/build_gn.patch
* build: remove common/chromium/fix-arm64-linking-error.patch
It was added in a1df18ca36
to workaround a linker issue.
* build: remove common/chromium/protobuf_build_gn.patch
It was added to workaround a VS linker bug, it has been fixed
in Update 1
* build: remove common/chromium/disable-recursive-surface-sync.patch
It was added in 6bc6626e2c
to fix dcheck on macOS, it no longer appears to be an issue.
In the GN build, libchromiumcontent is no longer a distinct library, but
merely a container for a set of scripts and patches. Maintaining those
patches in a separate repository is tedious and error-prone, so merge
them into the main repo.
Once this is merged and GN is the default way to build Electron, the
libchromiumcontent repository can be archived.
* build: [gn] explicitly override rtc_use_h264
* build: [gn] don't override ffmpeg config from release config
* build: [gn] remove is_cfi override from release config
The original concern about node is fixed and we have been
building testing builds without the override for sometime now.
* build: [gn] add distributable zip target
* build: update the CircleCI config
- enable debug and testing builds on Mac
- run Mac release builds nightly
- run test for Mac release builds
- use shared build machines configs
* Add resources dir to zip on non mac platforms.
* build: add config to build Electron for tests
* build: run nightly linux builds for the 3-0-x branch
* build: gn: update CI config for linux builds
- run GN debug and testing builds for PRs (as FYI)
- do not run tests for GN debug builds
- run GN release builds nightly
* build: gn: run testing builds on CI instead of release on Windows
Should save some time since release builds set 'official_build=true'
which make the builds take much more time.
* build: gn: use testing config to run CI jobs on Mac
Tests should run faster for testing builds.
Devs can still locally override or add settings by adding lines after
the `import` statement in args.gn.
This will help make sure that everyone has a common set of build args,
and will allow us to update everyone's build args in git.
The default_app asar was recently changed to reference files inside
`node_modules/` in addition to files inside `default_app/`. The
`js2asar.py` script was updated to interpret what this meant, but the GN
build wasn't. This change somewhat hackily makes the GN build reuse the
`js2asar.py` script so that this and also hopefully any future changes
will work in the GN build as well as the GYP build.
We're abusing the nodejs build a little bit by building it without ICU support, but forcing the inspector to be built, which depends on ICU. This synchronizes one of the build flags that's required to get ICU to link on Windows.
This is required on Windows, because in Debug mode, C++ stdlib containers have a different size to when in Release mode, so the code in `node.dll` thought that `node::Environment` was a different size to the code in `electron.exe`, which uh, caused problems.
It should also make debugging through node a bit easier on all platforms.
For some reason the windows node build needs `.dll` on the ends of these libraries, and also needs to be linked against `dbghelp`.
Additionally, copy the `WHOLEARCHIVE` hacks from common.gypi, which was doing the same thing.
