How can I set the OSX app icon?

[cajus]

The documentation only talks about the icon used for the .dmg, while the resulting application still has the electron default icon. How can I set the Icon for the App itself?

It is a critical bug due to electron 0.37.4 Set electron-prebuilt version to "electron-prebuilt": "0.37.3" as temp workaround. See electron/packager#300

Set electron-prebuilt version to "electron-prebuilt": "0.37.3" as temp workaround

Does this mean actually use 0.37.3 as a workaround or just set the package.json to that but still really use a different version?

@ccnokes It is already fixed (but you must use electron 0.37.4+). May be LinusU/node-appdmg#84 (comment) is your issue?

[ccnokes]

@develar Ok, I'm using electron 0.37.8 and electron-builder 2.8.2 (I know, I'm on an old version) and was seeing the issue. So you think upgrading to the latest electron-builder will fix the issue for me or is something else going on?

It looks like there's some breaking changes upgrading from 2.8.2 so I was hoping to avoid it if possible but I'll bite the bullet if needed.

Thanks!

@ccnokes yes, it is fixed in the 3.5.0+.

I'm seeing this on builder 3.17.1 and electron 0.37.8. Is this a known issue?

Is it possible to have separate icons for app and mounted dmg? I don't want the mounted dmg to have the same icon as the app.

[develar]

@nickdima osx.icon is only and only DMG icon. So, just set it to path to icon.

great, thanks!
