How to change electron forge's render port
I just started using electron-forge and I stumbled across a problem : when trying to change the renderer's port (that runs by default on port 3000), my changes to the webpack file were ignored...
I found out on their github that they override the webpack config in their custom webpack (@electron-forge/plugin-webpack
) package. But they still gave us two options (port
and loggerPort
) to achieve our needs and you can write them in the package.json like so :
{
"config": {
"forge": {
"plugins": {
[
"@electron-forge/plugin-webpack",
{
"port": 3001, // default is 3000
"loggerPort": 9001, // default is 9000
}
]
}
}
}
}
A bit too nested and undocumented if you want my opinion.
