QUESTION
So, I'm trying to pack a simple hello world script into an executeable, yet when using pkg or nexe, it looks like the entirety of Node.js get's packed in there, as they are way bigger than they need to be (around 30 MB). I did stumble upon EncloseJS, however, it was last updated in 2017 and no longer works (and the owner themself advices you to switch to pkg).
So, are there any other things out there that can compile it better than that?
Thanks in advance!
Also: This is the stunningly complex script that needs to run
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-May-22 at 21:03No, pkg and nexe works like that - they melting your code and NodeJS in one executable. Because, basically, you need NodeJS to run nodejs scripts - there is some specific methods like fs, for example, witch not exist in regular js.
Anyway, on this moment there is some projects to view:
NectarJS - project with actual dev status, basically compiles JS to C. But their main objectives is pretty interesting.
There is small JS engine called QuickJS witch compiles JS to C.
Another option is ts2c witch translate JS to C, but it does not support much features.
But keep in mind, that non of them works as good as pkg, witch fully support latest JS features and all NodeJS methods.

QUESTION
I have created a small CLI tool in typescript and have achieved to create a .exe out of it with nexe. A new use case is to write out some files that are bundled within the application: Let's say my CLI tool provides the user with empty template files that the user can then fill out.
A sample command would be: myapp.exe --action export-templates --outdir path/to/some/dir
What shall happen now is that the CLI tool will export the template files that it contains to this location.
I have bundled the files already, see an excerpt of my package.json:

Answered 2020-Aug-27 at 09:23okay, too bad I needed to find this out by myself, the documentation is really not great on this...
After stumbling upon some issues from 2016 an 2017 (mainly https://github.com/nexe/nexe/pull/93) I thought the solution would be to use nexeres. Well, turns out this maybe used to work, but sure does not any more. When added a require('nexeres') in my app it will run into an Error: Cannot find module 'nexeres' error.
So again I was searching issues and finally found the solution in https://github.com/nexe/nexe/issues/291: Simply use fs.readFile or fs.readFileSync with a relative path. My final code looks like this:
QUESTION
I am trying to compile my node server using nexe (3.3.2) but it keeps failing. When I first tried, it said I needed to use the --build flag which I included in my script. The process kicked off again, compiled for over two hours and then failed.
I upgraded my node and npm versions using Homebrew, it didn't work. I thought it might be the size of the folders I've included but even if I just include my server.js, it fails.
Does anyone have any ideas for me please? Below is a copy of the latest log file.

Answered 2020-May-17 at 07:26I wasn't able to resolve the problem so I used pkg instead.
QUESTION
I want to package my Node-RED flow deployment into an executable file so whenever the executable file is run then the flow should be deployed. How can this be achieved? I came up with different solutions. Like using Electron and packaging the app into an executable file but the problem is that the Node-RED project files are not a complete nodejs app (A complete nodejs app has some defined files inside the project like server.js, settings.js etc adn I don'T ahve any .js extension file) so I cannot use this directly on Node-RED Another solution is nexe which also does the packaging for the nodejs apps but again the same problem. So in result,I have to make my Node-RED project into a nodejs app or someone has a direct solution so please share
...ANSWER
Answered 2019-May-27 at 09:27Electron Node-RED solved my problem. Helpful Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2wiA0F9vPo
If anyone else wants to the same, you can consider electron-node-red
I'm not creating any project now. Electron Node-RED is an executable file which runs node-red with flows. So, I don't have to create an app and convert it to .exe. I will just use electron node red and deploy the flow so whenever I run the executable file, I can see the result. I don't have to go to the command prompt

There's a way to suppress messages, by using the suppressMessages(), but if you suppress every message at all in your program, you might risk missing some important message in the case of an exception.

Could someone advice how to execute nexe compile by gulp task? I wrote simple gilpfile.hs file. How to add nexe.compile() there?
...ANSWER
Answered 2019-Jul-08 at 11:17Nexe doesn't have direct gulp support - so it doesn't work with filestream. But its promised based - so you can run pointing to actual file path.
The idea is - after you finished compiling typescript to js - run nexe build using that target.js file -

My notebook uses MacOS, and already set up http(s) proxy inside the Network Preferences, but always failed to install any packages when running npm install in the terminal, it popped up the error 407 Proxy Authentication Required.
So I installed the cntlm and applied the correct configuration.
Below is the test and it seems pass (return HTTP Code 200):

don't use plain text password ( add one
#at the beginning of thePasswordline, like changePassword XXXto#Password XXX)use PassLM, PassNT, PassNTLMv2 instead (it seems hash values will prevent from auth handshake mechanism again, which should mean you are on behalf of the applications with logged in Windows user account).
The default cntlm configuration file already introduces the steps how to generate them.
My steps are as below:
execute
cntlm -H -d your_domain -u your_usernamethen it prompts password, fill in your password then hit Enter:

QUESTION
is it somehow possible to build NodeJS together with some selected JavaScript modules? I believe that for native modules, I should be able to achieve this with node-gyp, but I have no idea how to do this for JavaScript modules. The main idea is to be able to use custom application without npm install.
I know that I can use any of the bundlers like pkg or nexe, but this has some drawbacks with respect to the development...
Thanks!
...ANSWER
Answered 2018-Apr-18 at 07:52You can include JS files as described in here.
Just add a link-module parameter.
