Electron Screen

Small Module that returns an array with all the monitors connected to the pc with their resolution and position.
The standard API of electron already do this, but under Windows the screen api suffers lot of issues.

Works only under Windows OS!
If you want to manage screens with other OS have a look here.

Usage

Download and install electron-screen through npm, then require it:

const screen = require('electron-screen')
 
console.log(screen())

Under Windows electron-screen returns the following array of objects, where every object is a different screen :

[{
  bounds: {
    x: Number,
    y: Number,
    width: Number,
    height: Number
  }
}]

Build

• For testing:

$ npm build .

• For use the module inside Electron:
  Follow this instructions.

TODO

• Wrap Electron's native screen API and use electron-screen only under Windows.
• Add testing
