I’ve used Electron standalone before, and console.log() commands in main.js worked just fine (output to IDE console) and the electron-reload module also worked fine when content changes were detected in the Electron root folder.
I’ve now started a new Ionic 5 project, and added Electron to the project via Capacitor. Capacitor makes a few necessary changes to Electron (e.g. renaming main.js to index.js etc), I’ve now also have to start electron via capacitor npx cap open electron .
In doing so, console.log() commands in index.js are now NOT being output to the IDE console, and the electron-reload module now serves a blank page when changes are detected…
Is this a capacitor limitation or what configurations must be done to make this work ?
