Properties​

customNsisBinary?​

readonly optional customNsisBinary?: CustomNsisBinary | null

Allows you to provide your own makensis, such as one with support for debug logging via LogSet and LogText. (Logging also requires option debugLogging = true)

customNsisResources?​

readonly optional customNsisResources?: CustomNsisResources | null

Allows you to provide your own nsis-resources

guid?​

readonly optional guid?: string | null

The GUID for the installer. Used to identify the application for upgrade and uninstall operations. If not specified, a deterministic GUID is generated from the app ID (appId) — but this means changing your appId will break silent upgrades of existing installs.

GUID vs Application Name

unicode?​

readonly optional unicode?: boolean

Whether to create Unicode installer.

Default​

true

useZip?​

readonly optional useZip?: boolean

Use zip instead of 7z (LZMA) for the embedded app package. Only applies to portable targets and to installers built with differentialPackage: false; ignored (with a warning) when differentialPackage is enabled and for nsis-web, which always use 7z.

Default​

false

warningsAsErrors?​

readonly optional warningsAsErrors?: boolean

If warningsAsErrors is true (default): NSIS will treat warnings as errors. If warningsAsErrors is false: NSIS will allow warnings.

Default​

true
