Important Paths

var version = '1.1.0'; // channel = stable
var productName = 'Hadron Build';
var appBundleId = 'com.mongodb.hadron';

macOS

  • ~/Library/Application\ Support/${productName}: The [userData][electron-app-getPath] directory
  • ~/Library/Application\ Support/${appBundleId}.ShipIt/ShipItState.plist: Auto update state persistence
  • ~/Library/Application\ Support/${appBundleId}.ShipIt/ShipIt_stderr.log: Auto update log

Windows

  • C:\Users\${username}\AppData\Local\${_.titlecase(productName)}: App installation path. Why in a temp dir? Allows installation and auto update without requiring Administrator.
  • C:\Users\${username}\AppData\Roaming\${productName}: The [userData][electron-app-getPath] directory
  • C:\Users\${username}\AppData\Local\SquirrelTemp\SquirrelSetup.log: Squirrel.Windows installation log. Global for any app installation that's using Squirrel.Windows.
  • C:\Users\${username}\AppData\Local\${_.titlecase(productName)}\SquirrelSetup.log: Application level Squirrel.Windows log

The Squirrel.Windows Installation Log Explained

C:\Users\${username}\AppData\Local\SquirrelTemp\SquirrelSetup.log

What you can expect from a successful installation:

2016-06-24 09:46:12> Program: Starting Squirrel Updater: --install .

The following exception might be scary, but it's purely informational and ok to ignore.
