node-xulrunner

Like NW.js and node-webkit but with Gecko using XUL Runner.

Use node.js for your local app and use the magic Node.js powers here.

Usage

Cloning

This package provides an API and templates. The easyest way to use it is running

 
git clone http://github.com/AdrianArroyoCalle/node-xulrunner 
 

Then you can put your app in the app/ folder, modify the test.js file and run

 
node test.js
 

NPM API

We also provide an API for future tools like grunt-xulrunner or gulp-xulrunner

 
npm install node-xulrunner --save
 

 
var xul=require("node-xulrunner");
 
var options={
    os: "linux-i686",
    version: "35.0.1",
    name: "Testing",
    vendor: "Adrián Arroyo",
    appVersion: "0.1.0",
    buildId: "00000001",
    id: "test@node-xulrunner",
    copyright: "2015 Adrián Arroyo Calle",
    width: 800,
    height: 600
};
 
xul.packageApp(options);
 

But you must provide your own template folder.

app/ structure

app/ is where your app lives. node-xulrunner loads the main.js file and then you have the control. Use Express if you like to serve the HTML pages.
