Nitish Sakhawalkar f98454e5dd fix: use crashpad on Windows (#18483)
* Initial changes to use crashpad for windows

* Remove crashpad patch

* Report error when failed to connect pipe

* Allow crashpad to communicate with named pipe

* Add patch to make crashpad named pipe work

* Windows also needs crashReporter on main process

* Call SetUnhandledExceptionFilter in node process

Node can also use crash reporter.

* Do not treat node process as browser process

* No more need to manually start crash service

* Use base::StringPrintf for better readbility

* Print error when pipe name not available

* Make sure pipe name is updated

Note that the crashpad may be started after renderer process gets
created.

* Fix some tests

* Update node

* Exclude crashpad files on Linux and MAS

* Fix lint warning

* Remove unused checks

* kCrashpadPipeName is only available on Windows

* Fix uploadToServer tests

* Fix extra params tests

* Fix getCrashesDirectory tests

* Run crashReporter tests on CI

* Style fixes

* Update crashreporter docs

* Rename InitBreakpad to Init

* Add comment for process_type_.empty() and UTF16ToASCII to UTF16ToUTF8.

* Update build.gn include crashpad headers

* Address comment https://github.com/electron/electron/pull/18483#discussion_r290887898

* Avoid using api::WebContents

* Put kRunAsNode in atom_constants

* Remove duplicate settings on upload params

* Fix building on macOS

* Update description for crashpad_pid_check.patch

The Electron framework lets you write cross-platform desktop applications using JavaScript, HTML and CSS. It is based on Node.js and Chromium and is used by the Atom editor and many other apps.

Follow @ElectronJS on Twitter for important announcements.

This project adheres to the Contributor Covenant code of conduct. By participating, you are expected to uphold this code. Please report unacceptable behavior to coc@electronjs.org.

Installation

To install prebuilt Electron binaries, use npm. The preferred method is to install Electron as a development dependency in your app:

npm install electron --save-dev [--save-exact]

The --save-exact flag is recommended for Electron prior to version 2, as it does not follow semantic versioning. As of version 2.0.0, Electron follows semver, so you don't need --save-exact flag. For info on how to manage Electron versions in your apps, see Electron versioning.

For more installation options and troubleshooting tips, see installation.

Quick start & Electron Fiddle

Use Electron Fiddle to build, run, and package small Electron experiments, to see code examples for all of Electron's APIs, and to try out different versions of Electron. It's designed to make the start of your journey with Electron easier.

Alternatively, clone and run the electron/electron-quick-start repository to see a minimal Electron app in action:

git clone https://github.com/electron/electron-quick-start
cd electron-quick-start
npm install
npm start

Resources for learning Electron

Programmatic usage

Most people use Electron from the command line, but if you require electron inside your Node app (not your Electron app) it will return the file path to the binary. Use this to spawn Electron from Node scripts:

const electron = require('electron')
const proc = require('child_process')

// will print something similar to /Users/maf/.../Electron
console.log(electron)

// spawn Electron
const child = proc.spawn(electron)
