Not working on windows

[rsercano]

Hello

thanks for the work first of all, but I cant get it work on windows.

[14:26:20] Starting 'meteor-build-client'... '..' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. [14:26:20] 'meteor-build-client' errored after 8.12 ms [14:26:20] Error: Command failed: (cd meteor && ../node_modules/.bin/meteor-build-client ../meteor-build/ -p "") at checkExecSyncError (child_process.js:464:13)

This is the error log from the console. I guess your command is not suitable to execute on windows which is working in execSyncsection.

Thanks in advance.

Windows commandline doesn't understand / like Unix system do. To make the gulp workable change it with this:

var gulp = require('gulp');
var shell = require('gulp-shell');
var execSync = require('child_process').execSync;
var runSequence = require('run-sequence');


// ======== meteor-build-client ========
gulp.task('meteor-build-client', function() {
  execSync('(cd meteor && ' +
  '..\\node_modules\\.bin\\meteor-build-client ..\\meteor-build\\ -p "")', {
    stdio: [0, 1, 2],
  });
});


// ======== move files ========
gulp.task('copy-meteor-to-build', function() {
  return gulp
    .src('.\\meteor-build\\**\\*')
    .pipe(gulp.dest('./build'));
});

gulp.task('copy-electron-to-build', function() {
  return gulp
    .src('.\\electron\\**\\*')
    .pipe(gulp.dest('./build'));
});

var del = require('del');
gulp.task('clean-build', function() {
  return del.sync([
    'build\\**\\*',
    '!build',
  ]);
});

gulp.task('copy-all', [
  'clean-build',
  'copy-meteor-to-build',
  'copy-electron-to-build',
]);


// ======== electron ========
gulp.task('run-electron', ['copy-all'], shell.task([
  'electron .\\build',
]));
gulp.task('run-electron-localhost', shell.task(['electron .']));

gulp.task('watch-all', function() {
  gulp.watch('.\\electron\\**\\*', ['copy-all']);
});

// ======== build and package ========
var packager = require('electron-packager');
var argv = require('yargs').argv;
// usage: gulp build-electron --name="MY_APP_NAME"
gulp.task('build-electron', ['copy-all'], function() {
  packager({
    dir: './build',
    name: (argv.name ? argv.name : 'MyApp'),
    all: false, // true will build linux, win32, darwin. with ia32, x64
    platform: [argv.platform], // optional if "all" is set true
    arch: argv.arch,
    version: '0.33.0',
    icon: 'icon.icns', // ignore the file extension, packager will do the job!
    // uncomment the following line if anything you want to ignore (Regex)
    // ignore: './electron/node_modules/*',
    // prune: true,
    overwrite: true,
    asar: true,
  }, function done(err, appPath) {
    if (err) {
      throw console.error(err);
    }
    console.log('Done packaging electron app!\n',
    'Your app is at' + appPath);
  });
});

// usage: gulp build-electron-all --name="MY_APP_NAME"
gulp.task('build-electron-all', ['copy-all'], function() {
  packager({
    dir: './build',
    name: (argv.name ? argv.name : 'MyApp'),
    all: true, // true will build linux, win32, darwin. with ia32, x64
    version: '0.33.0',
    icon: 'icon.icns', // ignore the file extension, packager will do the job!
    // uncomment the following line if anything you want to ignore (Regex)
    // ignore: './electron/node_modules/*',

  }, function done(err, appPath) {
    if (err) {
