extraResourses not being packaged if path ends with glob pattern `/**/*`

Open GabrielNSD opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

Hello!

After updating to version 26.0.12 (from 24.9.1) the extra resources that end with /**/* are not being packed anymore. If using, for each path, the syntax { "from": "from/path", "to": "to/path" } the directory is packed.

@GabrielNSD Could you help provide a minimal reproducible demo code?

Hi @beyondkmp ! Sorry for the delay. I’ve created a repository using the quick-start example.

You can run yarn app:dir to generate the package directory.

In the package.json, I added both file specification methods under extraResources. Note that only the second one actually copies the files.

@GabrielNSD can you try 26.0.15? There was a change in migrating to a writesteam-based approach with electron/asar integration
