Electron BrowserWindow - no arg Constructor? about awilix HOT 6 CLOSED

You are using it correctly! What happens? Does the window get created? Since you use Proxy injection, BrowserWindow’s arity is irelevant.

I don't know Electron's internals, but could it be possible they are doing some check on the options object passed in that the proxy does not fool?

Either way, since you likely are not passing in any dependencies from your container into BrowserWindow, I suggest using:

registry.register(
  "electronBrowserWindow",
  asFunction(
    () =>
      new BrowserWindow({
        height: 600,
        width: 1200,
        backgroundColor: "#312450"
      }),
    {
      lifetime: Lifetime.TRANSIENT,
      injectionMode: awilix.InjectionMode.PROXY
    }
  )
);

May I ask why you are using TRANSIENT lifetime? 😄

Thank you for the quick reply! The BrowserWindow is created but does not make use of any of the passed options. The asFunction method seems like a reasonable approach. As I understand TRANSIENT will hand back a new object on each resolution? In the case of a BrowserWindow in our application we can create additional windows so it seems like the correct lifetime value.

Yes thats correct, just checking 😄

The function method worked. Thank you for your help on this!
