When the app is +packaged, Electron runs your app directly. To have a menubar that's consistent between development +and packaged modes, you'll need to [define it yourself](https://electronjs.org/docs/api/menu/). + +## Why isn't my `ignore` option working? + +As stated in the documentation for [`ignore`](https://electron.github.io/electron-packager/main/interfaces/electronpackager.options.html#ignore), it uses "[one] or more additional +[regular expression](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Regular_Expressions) +patterns. […] Please note that [glob patterns](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glob_%28programming%29) +will not work." + +## Why isn't the relative path in my app code working? + +To make a path work in both development and packaged mode, you'll need to generate a path based on +the location of the JavaScript file that is referencing the file. For example, if you had an app +structure like the following: + +``` +AppName +├── package.json +├── data +│   └── somedata.json +└── src +    └── main.js +``` + +In `src/main.js`, you would access `data/somedata.json` similar to this: + +```javascript +const path = require('path'); +const jsonFilename = path.resolve(__dirname, '..', 'data', 'somedata.json'); +console.log(require(jsonFilename)); +``` + +## How do I set an icon on Linux? + +The docs for [`icon`](https://electron.github.io/electron-packager/main/interfaces/electronpackager.options.html#icon) +already show how to set an icon on your `BrowserWindow`, but your dock/taskbar may not use that and +instead use the `Icon` value in your `.desktop` file. The [Linux distributable creators](https://github.com/electron/electron-packager#distributable-creators) +can help you set/distribute the appropriate icon in that case. -- cgit v1.2.3-86-g962b
