Критические изменения

Изменения в API: nativeImage.createThumbnailFromPath(path, size)

The maxSize parameter has been changed to size to reflect that the size passed in will be the size the thumbnail created. Previously, Windows would not scale the image up if it were smaller than maxSize, and macOS would always set the size to maxSize. Behavior is now the same across platforms.

// a 128x128 image.
const imagePath = path.join('path', 'to', 'capybara.png');

// Scaling up a smaller image.
const upSize = { width: 256, height: 256 };
nativeImage.createThumbnailFromPath(imagePath, upSize).then((result) => {
  console.log(result.getSize()); // { width: 256, height: 256 }
});

// Scaling down a larger image.
const downSize = { width: 64, height: 64 };
nativeImage.createThumbnailFromPath(imagePath, downSize).then((result) => {
  console.log(result.getSize()); // { width: 64, height: 64 }
});

New Features

• Added the ability to filter HttpOnly cookies with cookies.get(). #37365
• Added logUsage to shell.openExternal() options, which allows passing the SEE_MASK_FLAG_LOG_USAGE flag to ShellExecuteEx on Windows. The SEE_MASK_FLAG_LOG_USAGE flag indicates a user initiated launch that enables tracking of frequently used programs and other behaviors. #37291
• Added types to the webRequest filter, adding the ability to filter the requests you listen to.#37427
• Added a new devtools-open-url event to webContents to allow developers to open new windows with them. #36774
• Added several standard page size options to webContents.print(). #37265
• Added the enableLocalEcho flag to the session handler ses.setDisplayMediaRequestHandler() callback for allowing remote audio input to be echoed in the local output stream when audio is a WebFrameMain. #37528
• Allow an application-specific username to be passed to inAppPurchase.purchaseProduct(). #35902
• Exposed window.invalidateShadow() to clear residual visual artifacts on macOS. #32452
• Whole-program optimization is now enabled by default in electron node headers config file, allowing the compiler to perform opimizations with information from all modules in a program as opposed to a per-module (compiland) basis. #36937
• SystemPreferences::CanPromptTouchID (macOS) now supports Apple Watch. #36935
