electron Main and renderer process. Remote module RMI
Example
The remote module allows simple RMI (remote method invocation) of main process objects from renderer process. First create the main process in index.js
const {app, BrowserWindow} = require('electron')
let win = null
app.on('ready', () => {
win = new BrowserWindow()
win.loadURL(`file://${__dirname}/index.html`)
win.on('closed', () => {
win = null
})
})
and then remote process index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script>
const {BrowserWindow, app} = require('electron').remote
</script>
</head>
<body>
<button onclick= "let win = new BrowserWindow(); win.loadURL(`file://${__dirname}/index.html`)">new window</button>
<button onclick= "app.quit()">quit</button>
</body>
</html>
