Sravan 1abf6855d8 fix(desktop): drive SnoreToast directly with own named pipe + raw reply logging
node-notifier returned an empty result for text replies. Now spawn the bundled SnoreToast
with -tb -w -pipeName against our own pipe, read the raw UTF-16LE result, and parse the
reply (keeps spaces). Logs the raw pipe string to userData/toast-debug.log to pin the
exact reply field on real hardware.

Biz Connect — Desktop client

Electron shell that loads the live Connect web UI and adds native screen capture. See the overall plan in ../CLIENTS.md.

Run (dev)

npm install
SERVER_URL=http://localhost:8090 npm start     # default is https://remote.bizgaze.com

Build installers

npm run dist        # electron-builder → Win NSIS / Mac dmg / Linux AppImage

Signed, trusted installers need certificates:

  • Windows: an EV (or OV) code-signing certificate.
  • macOS: Apple Developer ID cert + notarization (CSC_LINK, APPLE_ID, APPLE_APP_SPECIFIC_PASSWORD).

Notes

  • The window loads ${SERVER_URL}/home; relative /api and /ws URLs work because the origin is the server itself — no web-code changes.
  • setDisplayMediaRequestHandler in main.js is what makes "Share Screen" work in Electron; it currently defaults to the primary display. Swap in a source-picker for production.
  • The session is persisted (persist:bizconnect) so login survives restarts.
  • window.__NATIVE__ === 'desktop' is exposed for the web UI to feature-detect.
