electronJS-based resin application template

balena-electronjs's Issues

Add VersionBot integration

ERROR:browser_gpu_channel_host_factory.cc(103)] Failed to launch GPU process.

It's unclear why this is happening. This is on a push of the master branch as of today's date. Host's config.txt:

disable_splash=1
dtparam=i2c_arm=on
dtparam=spi=on
dtparam=audio=on
enable_uart=1
gpu_mem=160

Mouse cursor support?

Maybe just a newbie question, but is it supposed to be possible to operate the electron app on a Rasberry Pi 3 using a mouse / trackball?

I got my resin-electronjs based app running on the app but I don't see a mouse pointer anywhere on the screen. I tried two difference mice to no avail.

this boilerplate fails to load when updated to electron latest version 1.8.4

steps to reproduce

• do fresh checkout of this repo
• update electron to latest (1.8.4) at time of writing
• deploy to a raspberry pi3 model B, running on a pi 7 inch touchscreen

result = blank white screen
expected = the hello world message with unicorn

xinit: connection to X server lost

When I deploy the code to a Raspberry Pi v1 or a Zero (with 64GB) I see in the Resin logs window X.org being launched and again and again and again at both devices with the same code. I did not alter the code of this repo, just pushed it to the Resin Git repo to deploy and see how it worked.

I see this over and over again:

Updating docker-prebuild did not matter anything, but is it Fluxbox, X.org?
The device is recognised (so it has Ethernet), shows on my TV ("Booted - check your dashboard") but does not show my application.

What can I try to fix this or is it a bug?

PS: Initially I also see a xauth: file /root/.Xauthority does not exist popping up before the above message gets repeated.

No address associated with hostname

I'm not able to launch the application. I've followed the instructions exactly as explained on the repo but when I boot the pi up, it doesn't seem to launch. This is on a raspberry pi zero.

Resin electron vue template

Hello,

I've recently created template for resin electron vue base on this project and https://github.com/SimulatedGREG/electron-vue, and wanted suggest adding link to it in this project, so interested people could use it. https://github.com/imomaliev/resin-electron-vue

Chromium crash

I'm running a test on a RaspberryPI 3. It runs fine in the beginning but after a while I get the following error:

Clearing the cache when restarting

Hi,

I couldn't find any way to clear the electron's data cache. It may be worth adding some configuration variable to "force reload" everything? For now, I log into the app, and remove the ~/.config/<app>/Cache folder and restart.

readme missing image

The readme refers to http://snappin.io/img/resin_electron_love.png but that file is missing.

Error: Running without the SUID sandbox!

I'm experiencing an error whilst trying to run this on a Raspberry Pi 3, not sure if this is the same for the 2. The error I'm seeing is as follows:

Please let me know if there is any more information you need to debug this.

Request for Documentation on Devices for MultiContainer Mapping [Screen Blocks]

I need a list of devices that must be mapped through to allow electron to start so that I can segment off my other containers from interfering with the display. Screen buffer starts to break after containers reboot in the backend and lose control of the devices while a new container boots up.

Build fails because node version tag not found in repository

Similar to #35

Get the following error when pushing to resin repo:

Removing version tag from Dockerfile template fixes the issue

Kiosk mode doesn't hide taskbar and prevents 'ready-to-show' from firing

Kiosk mode prevents 'ready-to-show' from firing. Also, it doesn't hide the top menu. I've tried modifying fluxbox settings with no luck... Any hints?

Video performance

Hello,

I have been checking resin-electronjs today and I am not able to get any decent performance on a raspberry pi 3. I have tried with the master branch as well as with the framebuffer one. Also, I noticed that the image quality is not so good, it seems as if the graphics are quantized, i.e. running in maybe 16bits/pixel instead of 24. Do you have any advices? is it even possible to get an acceptable performance to play videos using electron on a rpi?

Enable mouse

Got it to boot after changing some things around. Great work. For development, how would one enable the mouse in this interface? I'd like to use it until I hook up a touch-screen. ;)

Implement window graceful show

Right now while the window gets rendered/loaded a blank background is showed. This can be avoided pre-rendering windows and showing only when ready.

On which distro is resin/odroid-ux3-node:6.9.2 based ?

Enable audio input and output

On my device(s) I need to access the microphone and output audio in kiosk mode. However, when I boot up the app it appears to be stucked and in the logs I see 2 messages:

04.09.16 12:18:31 [+0100] [104:0904/111831:INFO:CONSOLE(170)] "> ON EVENT", source: file:///app/app/app.js (170)

so basically it seems to be waiting for the user's permissions (that I cannot have in kiosk mode) and cannot find an audio input device. Any help?

Architect a better way of handling architecture-specific dependencies

a clear example of the problem to attack is that we have an intel branch with intel graphics specific dependencies. This approach is far from ideal because every time master gets updated, the arch branches need to be rebased against it

Writing to DOM blocking other writes?

I've been working with this project this week. My initial results were great and I was super excited about what could be done with the Pi and Resin/Electron.

While trying to build a more complex page to display with Electron I noticed something odd. I have one socket.io connection that gets data and updates a div 10 times per second, and I have a socket.io connection that gets data and updates a different div every few seconds.

When the every few seconds div gets data and writes to it's div, the 10 times per second div had a hiccup for roughly 3 tenths of a second.

This isn't a problem running on chrome on my laptops browser, or even running an electron app on my windows laptop. Only with the Pi/Resin/Electron combo.

Anyways, I figured I'd throw it out there and see if any of you had a bright idea. I've tried a handful of things to speed up writing the data to the div etc but I still have the same result.

I did end up getting it to run smoothly with a epiphany kiosk option, but I really wanted to stick with Electron since I use it on the windows side of things.

Thanks!

Add no tearing config to xorg to reduce tearing

You can add additional hardware acceleration for no tearing by creating a /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf file with the code below. This helps make animations and videos render much more smoothly.

Section "Device"
   Identifier  "Intel Graphics"
   Driver      "intel"
   Option      "TearFree"    "true"

Dev command

Currently, there isn't an easy way to run resin-electronjs on your local machine. You have to manually pass in a URL_LAUNCHER because it defaults to absolute path /usr/data/index.html.

We should also add an npm dev script for convenience (with doesn't start x server).

RPi touch display not working anymore

I'm using this boilerplate to develop an app that will run on a balenaFin board with an official Raspberry Pi Touch Display connected. This worked fine before, but today I updated my repo to match the boilerplate in the current version of this repo because some apt repos were not available anymore so the old Dockerfile didn't build anymore.

Now, the screen works fine, but there are no touch events registered. Reverting to my previous commit solves the issue, so it's definitely not hardware related.

My previous Dockerfile was an exact match with this one, and now I'm using this one.

Any ideas on what I can do to get it working again?

adding "pi-pins" to this template

Hi
I am trying to use the GPIOs so I added "pi-pins". my dependencies in my package.json look like this

"dependencies": {
        "bootstrap": "^4.0.0-alpha.4",
        "electron": "^1.4.13",
        "firebase": "^3.6.8",
        "jquery": "^3.1.0",
        "moment": "^2.17.1",
        "pi-pins": "~1.0.2",
        "require-rebuild": "^1.2.8",
        "tether": "^1.3.7",
        "weather-js": "^1.0.2"
    }

when I tried to run it on my RPI3 i got this error message:

[194:0201/234145:INFO:CONSOLE(83)] "Uncaught Error: Module version mismatch. Expected 50, got 48.", source: /usr/src/app/node_modules/bindings/bindings.js (83)

if I Remove the code below (which is in my index.js) the error goes away:

if (isPi) {
        var GPIO = require('pi-pins');
    }

I am doing something wrong?

Audio not working on Electron

Hello @curcuz ! So after several trials I'm still having issues with audio.

I have a USB Microphone and a speaker connected to the jack.

Input audio works with your default Dockerfile but the audio does not. Now if I install omxplayer I can play audio from the terminal. However, still no luck in Electron. If I install alsa-utils and set up /etc/asound.conf like this:

pcm.!default {
    type hw
    card 1
}
ctl.!default {
    type hw           
    card 0
}

the audio works fine on Electron, but the input (microphone) does not. I have also tried to use this config:

pcm.!default {
    type asym
    playback.pcm "hw:0,0"
    capture.pcm "hw:1,1"
}

and

pcm.!default {
    type asym
    playback.pcm "hw:1,1"
    capture.pcm "hw:0,0"
}

but still no luck.
I guess my short question is: how do I get audio input and output to work on Electron?

I'm using the example provided in https://github.com/resin-io/resin-electronjs, with Raspberry Pi v1 B+. Any clues about what I may be missing? Is this a known problem?

Thanks!

Rename/Rebrand for Balena

Large image handling crash

If I use any large images or do anything a little challenging within the renderer process chromium crashes not giving any error codes etc. The screen basically just goes blank.

I am using an Intel NUC7I5BNK with a pcap screen

Here is a fork of this repo that just has a large image set as a background, if you try to zoom in to it you will get the same issue that I have here. - https://github.com/OllieLy/resin-electronjs

Every now and again I get this on the resin logs:

check if device matches minimum gpu_mem config value before starting X

even if specified here, this appears to be the most common issue - we can check if vcgencmd get_config gpu_mem >=64 before starting X
