Nativefier v43.1.3

👋 dear users. Two announcements in this release:

This release (43.1.3) is the last release supporting Node 10.x
We do our best to support the oldest Node we can (what Debian stable ships),
but we are also constrained by what our own Node dependencies require.
It's time for a bump; the next release will be 44.0.0 and will require Node 12.

Also, introducing CATALOG.md,
a list of build commands contributed by the Nativefier community, to help you
nativefy "complicated" apps that need a bit of elbow grease to work.
When stuck nativefying a specific site, go take a look, it might give you ideas :) .

• Fix crash on tab close (only try to inject CSS for valid web requests) (#939, PR #1181)
• Fix considering shop.foo.com and blog.foo.com as internal (PR #1171)
• CATALOG.md: build command library (fix #1166) (PR #1178)
• Bump default Electron to 12.0.7

Nativefier v43.1.2

• [regression-43.1.0] Fix logging out users on upgrade / app recreate with same URL (fix #1176) (PR #1179)

Nativefier v43.1.1

• [regression-43.1.0] Fix app crash due to import of 3rd-party dep loglevel in preload.js (fix #1175) (PR #1177)

Nativefier v43.1.0

This is a chunky release! Warm thanks to all the contributors that helped shape it,

There are no breaking changes.

Bugfixes!

• App: fix child windows not inheriting mainWindow properties (including userAgent), breaking some Google login pages (#1174)
• Fix --injecting multiple css/js files (fix #458) (#1162)

Maintenance!

Nativefier v43.0.2

• Bump default Electron to 12.0.4 with Chrome 89.0.4389.114
  This includes the recent security fixes.
  See https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/tag/v12.0.3
  and https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/tag/v12.0.4

Nativefier v43.0.1

• Add a session-interaction event to allow injected js to interact
  with apps Electron session object (PR #1132)
• Automatically-internal login pages: add Apple ID (PR #1146), GitHub 2FA (PR #1140)
• Bump default Electron from 12.0.1 to 12.0.2 (with Chrome 89.0.4389.90)
• Old build detection: bump threshold from 60 to 90 days

Nativefier v43.0.0

• [BREAKING] Bump to Electron 12.0.1 with Chrome 89.0.4389.82
  See https://www.electronjs.org/blog/electron-12-0
  and https://www.electronjs.org/docs/breaking-changes#planned-breaking-api-changes-120
  Noteworthy to Nativefier users:

  • As usual, new Chrome, with potential improvements/regressions to websites you use
  • [deprecated and to be fully removed in a future release of Nativefier] Removed Flash support. If you still need flash, pass a <12 version to the -e flag. Note this will not work forever, our --flash flag is going to die at some point in the future. See doc in API.md / flash and start looking at alternatives / emulators like Ruffle.
  • Removed support for older x86 CPUs that do not have SSE3

• [BREAKING] (ish) Automatically consider known login pages as internal (fix #706) (PR #1124)
  URLs for known login pages (e.g. accounts.google.com or login.live.com)
  are now automatically considered internal, to let you login in your
  Nativefier app without having to fiddle with --internal-urls.

  This does not replace internal-urls, it complements it, and happens
  before your internal-urls rule is applied. So, if you already set
  internal-urls to let such auth pages open internally, feel free to
  clean it up, but it's not necessary. Our list of login pages to consider
  internal lives at app/src/helpers/helpers.ts

  We think this is desirable behavior and are so far unaware of cases where
  users might not want this, so we haven't provided a flag to disable it.
  If you disagree, please chime in at
  PR #1124: App: Automatically consider known login pages as internal

• Various maintenance fixes: deps, scripts, slim down Docker size

Special thanks to @TheCleric for all the work during this release 🙂

Nativefier v42.4.0

• macOS: Prompt for accessibility permissions if needed by Global Shortcuts using Media Keys (fix #1120, PR #1121)
• Icon conversion: support GraphicsMagick in addition to ImageMagick (PR #1002)
• Docker: fix Windows builds, line endings, switch to Alpine (fix #997, PR #1122)
• Fix considering "same domain-ish" URLs as internal (PR #1126)
  This was a regression introduced in 42.3.0 by dropping wurl in 6b266b7.
  The new behavior is super close to 42.2.1. So, not considering it breaking.
• Various maintenance fixes: tooling, deps, CI

  macOS-segfault-causing icon bug #1101 should remain fixed.
• API docs: fix typo in option "-v" (PR #1114)
• Get rid of dep shelljs and abandoned app dep wurl
• Bump commander from 4 to 7 and eslint-config-prettier from 7 to 8
