Other - Electron for FreeBSD

GitHub user Guangyuan Yang has successfully built Electron on FreeBSD. As the Electron team has shown no interest in targeting FreeBSD or even including the changes in the official core, this promises to be an alternative way to use applications like Atom, Visual Studio Code and lots of others...

devel/electron28 is deprecated, will expire at the end of this month.

devel/electron29 alone is packaged by the FreeBSD Project.

Ports that require devel/electron30 include:
  • editors/vscode – Code - OSS
  • net-im/signal-desktop – Signal
– FreshPorts provides a full list.

devel/electron31 is not yet required by any other port.

signalapp / Signal-Desktop

I was just wondering if someone would be interested in porting signalapp / Signal-Desktop or if there is specific reason why it hasn't been ported yet (Linux only?). P.S. I'm not using FreeBSD (waiting for 13.0 RELEASE to go onto my new laptop) or Signal yet, nor am I a developer, so this is...

Is vscode broken ?

I cannot "pkg install vscode" anymore ?

Flare – unofficial app for Linux, to chat with users of Signal

There is flare : https://gitlab.com/schmiddi-on-mobile/flare mro I created issue 206 for us. If we need to discuss in The FreeBSD Forums, I suggest starting a new topic. Thanks. mro please, did you try what's suggested by Julian Schmidhuber? vermaden asked: Maybe creation of Flare port...

Package infrastructure report 270565 explains why no more than one version of Electron is built. It's discussed in the Signal topic above, and elsewhere.
 
Noted in logs for electron29-29.4.6 and electron31-31.4.0:

To build electron, you should have around 2GB of memory and around 14 GB of free disk space.

WANTSPACE values in the Makefile for each port are 14 GB and 21 GB.

14 may be an underestimate.

In my case, before and during build of electron29-29.4.6:

A small part of the 18.7 GiB reduction in free space may be ccache(1), this doesn't change my suspicion that 14 GB (13.04 GiB (gibibytes)) is an underestimate. ccache statistics now are not significantly different from what I recall with the previous view of stats, a few days ago.

The build was automatically killed after one day, free space rose from 13.3G to 34.0G – a rise of much more than 14 GB.
