Electron 1.2.1: Cannot find module 'app'

[thinkdj]

Constantly getting "Cannot find module 'app'" whenever require('electron-basic-updater') is called.

Because of the changes to Electron 1.2.1, this works:

    const Application = require('electron').app;
    const AppPath = Application.getAppPath() + '/';

Thanks for your help !

You can build nsis app with electron builder (example: nsis for windows, dmg for Mac) and you can setup local server for updates (ex. https://github.com/zeit/hazel/blob/master/readme.md)
