I am building a node app that has a function that requires running an .exe file. I am using the .exe because it was the only was I was able to get my my legacy fortran code to compile (through intel visual fortran). Will I be able to get my app to run through heroku, and if so, is there anything I need to do besides the basic deploy?
Thanks in advance.
I don't think Heroku has any windows servers.
As you have the Heroku CLI to enter into the machine where your app is running you can try using Wine (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine) to run your exe.

so I have deployed my node.js application on heroku but my application uses the help of .exe files to run which were generated on windows. Since heroku runs on a Linux server I am unable to run my executables on the deployed application, but it does run locally. I tried to use wine to run the executables, using the wine build pack but it didn't help as it returned an enoent error.
It would return with an error message of spawn sync path/to/executable ENOENT
I also tried deploying using a docker file but the wine docker file doesn't seem to generate https://hub.docker.com/r/suchja/wine
Is there any workaround for this problem? Any help would be appreciated
I am currently using windows 10. I want to be able to run detox test scripts on android emulators. Is this possible?
I tried to do it many times but failed. Each time I do it, some configuration issue pops up and build gets failed.
The CI/CD server is hosted on a Linux machine, so assuming we can do this, will it run there?
Also is there any good guide available to help in setting up and running detox for react-native projects on windows?
I'm trying to run an application build with Electron on Linux. They app maker offers an .exe installation file. So I figured I'd install it in WINE, but I seem to be missing something the app needs to run.
Since the install is an .exe, do I need WINE? And if I need WINE, what do I need to install to make the app work? I have tried two Electron apps, both only downloadable as a .exe install file.
Electron adds os native calls, so .exe files usually do not work. WINE is not able to emulate all of those calls, so if it isn't working for you, then you are out of luck I guess. Look for apps that offer linux versions, like https://www.electronjs.org/apps/camunda-modeler. If you have access to the repository, chances are they build it using electron-builder. You can just build it yourself with the command electron-builder build --linux in most cases
Context:
I am trying to put an electron app on the App Store. The app features a web frontend and a python backend. Nothing fancy so far.
The backend however features a separate server written in python. This server is a standalone application.
The electron app bundles the main app together with the python standalone server.
The problem:
When building the server as an executable I use pyinstaller on a python 3.5 development environment. Upon uploading to the AppStore I receive the following error:
1 package(s) were not uploaded because they had problems:

New apps submitted to the Mac App Store must support 64-bit starting January 2018, and Mac app updates and existing apps must support 64-bit starting June 2018."
We tried building the server using this:
pyinstaller server.spec --distpath ../app/app --noconfirm
It didn't work.
Another incantation I use to bundle the python server trying to force 64bit is:
arch -64 python ~/anaconda3/envs/shape/bin/pyinstaller server.spec -s --osx-bundle-identifier com.ShapeRobotics.FableMac --distpath ../app/app --noconfirm"
Why I'm sure it's the server:
I was successful in signing the app and getting it uploaded to the AppStore w/o the server packed in.
After packing in the server the 'i386' architecture error popped up.
Consequently my efforts so far have been focused to eliminate any shred of 32bit code in the server.
I assume that in order to do this I must properly configure the .spec file used by pyInstaller.
Does this make sense?
Is there a way to configure the spec file to force exclusive 64bit on anything bundled inside?
Is there some clear cut way to make the AppStore upload not vomit the 'i386' error?
Thank you!
I've looked on the Node-Webkit site and it appears to say that I can make an application with HTML5 and compile it for Windows, Linux of Mac so it will run without the need for the user to install Node.js separately. However, when I try their sample apps (e.g. https://github.com/leanote/desktop-app found on the official NW.js page: https://github.com/nwjs/nw.js/wiki/List-of-apps-and-companies-using-nw.js ), the ".exe" file does not run the app (on either Win 7 or XP). It just opens a simple browser window with the address "nw:blank" and a gray page says "NW.JS" and does nothing.
Can these apps be packaged and run without requiring the user to install node.js?
https://github.com/leanote/desktop-app 's nw folder is not the distribute leanote app, it's just the NW. You must build the desktop-app. The README has written How to build it, How to develop it
You can download the distributed version via: https://github.com/leanote/desktop-app/releases
You might try... node-webkit-builder ... which is supposed to build a huge .EXE file which is self-contained for you. Otherwise, the instructions for distributing... how to package and distribute, see Step 2b.
