Electron kiosk app without devmode

zhex900 · September 29, 2021, 5:30am

Hi,

I have a working electron app.

To run int I need to use devmode

sudo snap install pam-app --channel=latest/edge --devmod

Without devmod, this kiosk app will not start. Is there way to remove the need for devmode?

Here are the errors

try using the mir-kiosk-x11 build-snap and probably also bump to core20 and the gnome-3-38 extension … i have an example snap using these two here:

zhex900 · September 29, 2021, 9:51am

I will try it this week.

i also think

can be dropped …

i’m also not sure why you see the libffi errors, is your gnome-3-38-2004 install outdated by chance ?

zhex900 · October 20, 2021, 9:50am

Oops. I forgot to add

    command-chain:
      - env-setup

Now the snap worked.

But I still get libfii.so errors

Do I need to install gnome-3-38-2004 on the host does the build ?

this file is not at this path.

ogra · October 20, 2021, 10:42am

are you sure the binary has the correct architecture ?

zhex900 · October 20, 2021, 10:52am

Yes. The correct architecture.

Same error.

ogra · October 20, 2021, 10:55am

you rather want

snap run --shell electron-kiosk-uc20.electron-kiosk-uc20

so it processes the command-chain bits …

zhex900 · October 20, 2021, 10:14pm

electron-kiosk-uc20 have does render the page but they have similar errors as my app

Do I need to add interface connections?

i’m not sure how this InitializeSandbox() error can occur given the command should have --no-sandbox defined in the wrapper …

zhex900 · October 20, 2021, 10:35pm

Is it normal for $SNAP/gnome-platform to be empty?

ogra · October 20, 2021, 10:40pm

no, it should be showing the bind-mounted content of the gnome-3-38 snap (which gets automatically installed and connected)

ogra@pi4-arm64:~$ sudo snap run --shell electron-kiosk-wayland.electron-kiosk-wayland
root@pi4-arm64:/home/ogra$ ls $SNAP/gnome-platform
etc  lib  meta	sbin  snap  usr  var
root@pi4-arm64:/home/ogra$

zhex900 · October 20, 2021, 10:49pm

You got two similar repos

I will try electron-kiosk-wayland

ogra · October 20, 2021, 10:52pm

the wayland version is still in the works and has some performance issues on the RPi4 (Pi2 and 3 should be fine) … in case you run on that hardware …

zhex900 · October 20, 2021, 10:52pm

Why my snap does not mount gnome-platform?

ogra · October 20, 2021, 10:53pm

i’m honestly not sure, it clearly does for me when testing on Ubuntu Core 20 on a Pi4 (as you can see above)
