Support for Electron Forge

If you have questions about usage, we encourage you to browse the website, and visit one of the several community-driven sites, including the official Electron Discord server, where there is a dedicated channel for Electron Forge.

Troubleshooting

One way to troubleshoot potential problems is to set the DEBUG environment variable before running electron-forge. This will print debug information from the specified modules. The value of the environment variable is a comma-separated list of modules which support this logging feature. Known modules include:

  • @electron/get:*
  • @electron/osx-sign
  • @electron/packager
  • electron-forge:* (always use this one before filing an issue)
  • electron-installer-debian
  • electron-installer-dmg
  • electron-installer-flatpak
  • electron-installer-redhat
  • electron-installer-snap:*
  • electron-rebuild
  • electron-windows-installer:main
  • electron-windows-store
  • extract-zip
  • get-package-info

We use the debug module for this functionality. It has examples on how to set environment variables if you don't know how.

If you are using npm run to execute electron-forge, run the electron-forge command without using npm run and make a note of the output, because npm run does not print out error messages when a script errors.
