The previous dependency, @homebridge/node-pty-prebuilt-multiarch@0.13.1,
publishes no win32-arm64 prebuilds on its v0.13.x line, and its v0.14.x
betas (which do add an arm64 Windows build) ship no electron-vXXX-win32-
arm64 prebuilds at all -- so packaged Electron 40 builds (NMV 143) would
fail at runtime even on a successful npm install. Net effect: the
desktop's integrated terminal was unbuildable on Windows-on-ARM, in
both dev (npm install fails: 404 fetching the node-vXXX-win32-arm64
prebuilt) and packaged builds (no Electron-ABI prebuilt exists).
The homebridge fork was originally created because upstream node-pty
shipped no prebuilds at all. That hasn't been true since node-pty@1.0
(April 2024), which:
- bundles prebuilts for mac (arm64+x64) and Windows (arm64+x64) directly
inside the npm tarball -- no GitHub-Releases fetch, no missing-binary
failure mode
- uses N-API (node-addon-api) for ABI stability across Node and Electron
major versions, so the same pty.node binary loads under Node 22 (dev)
and Electron 40+ (packaged) without per-ABI rebuilds
- is what VS Code, Hyper, and Theia actually ship
API surface is identical (spawn / onData / onExit / write / resize /
kill) -- no call-site changes needed.
Specifically:
- apps/desktop/package.json: replace the @homebridge fork with
node-pty@1.1.0 (exact pin). Widen `asarUnpack` from `["**/*.node"]`
to also unpack `**/prebuilds/**`, because node-pty ships runtime-
execed helpers alongside its .node files (darwin spawn-helper has no
extension and would not be matched by `**/*.node`; conpty.dll,
OpenConsole.exe, winpty.dll, winpty-agent.exe on Windows are also
exec'd at runtime and cannot live inside asar).
- apps/desktop/electron/main.cjs: update both require() strings to
match the new package name and the new staged path under
resources/native-deps/node-pty/.
- apps/desktop/scripts/stage-native-deps.cjs: point at node_modules/
node-pty. node-pty's prebuilts live under prebuilds/<plat>-<arch>/
(not build/Release/), so update the include glob to copy that dir.
Per-arch staging keeps the resource bundle small (target arch comes
from npm_config_arch when electron-builder cross-builds, else
process.arch). Explicitly enumerate file types in the prebuilds glob
so the ~25 MB of .pdb debug symbols that prebuild-install bundles
for Windows crash analysis don't bloat the installer (29 MB -> 2.6 MB
staged on win32-arm64). Re-assert +x on the darwin spawn-helper
defensively, since a stripped mode bit would manifest as a silent
ENOENT at first pty.spawn().
- apps/desktop/scripts/test-desktop.mjs: update expectedNativeDepPaths()
and its assertion site to look at prebuilds/<plat>-<arch>/ instead of
build/Release/. Add an explicit spawn-helper-exists check on darwin
so a regression in the asarUnpack glob would fail loudly in CI rather
than at first PTY spawn.
Trade-off: Linux end-users lose prebuilts and fall back to building
node-pty from source on `npm install`. Acceptable because Hermes
ships no Linux desktop builds (desktop-release.yml matrix is mac + win
only, package.json declares no `linux` target), and Linux developers
hacking on the desktop already need a C++ toolchain for the rest of
the stack.
Verified on Windows 11 ARM64 (Snapdragon):
npm install -> exit 0
node -e "require('node-pty').spawn(...)" round-trip -> OK
stage-native-deps -> 27 files, 2.6 MB
load from staged tree (simulates packaged fallback) -> ConPTY
round-trip OK
