Hide app.asar.unpacked

[tender pine]

I've used electron react boilerplate that uses electron-builder.

After build i can see that there is a folder app.asar.unpacked that contains node_modules and the native dependencies that i use, that are not added to app.asar, and users can actually see what packages i use, and i don't want that.
Is there a way to hide those?

What is your electron-builder config?

[fringe fable]

No

Electron need to know what to run

[rugged grotto]

@fringe fable But when the files are built then node_modules is no longer needed, unless the unpacked folder is just the whole non-compiled project?

[fringe fable]

Native libraries must be extracted

Package.json also must be visible

[rugged grotto]

Ah yes okay, you get the unpack folder with the param asarUnpack, so yeah there is no point to hide these

[tender pine]

The thing is that i wanna hide the native libraries that i use from users

Because if the users see what native dependencies i use, the code obfuscation would be useless

Atleast they can struggle to deobfuscate

I thought it will go into app.asar that is already obfuscated

[fringe fable]

asar is not obfuscation

asar is a package

[tender pine]

i've used obfuscator inside app.asar

so now the code is obfuscated in app.asar

[fringe fable]

so?

native code should be outside of asar file

[tender pine]

ah..

[fringe fable]

this is nodejs limitation

every native code/binaries should be outside of asar

[tender pine]

so i can't do anything to hide it right?

[fringe fable]

you can extract it to other folder

but this is question to tool that extract it

asar itself dont do that
