electron-renderer-view

Easily get a value from an electron renderer instance
(eg. some attribute on the window object)

Usage

const { BrowserWindow } = require('electron')
const rendererVal = require('electron-renderer-value')

// ...

app.on('ready', () => {
  const ipcMain = electron.ipcMain
  const win = new BrowserWindow()  
  win.loadURL(`file://${__dirname}/someFile.html`)
  rendererVal(win.webContents, 'window.foo')
  .then(param => {
    console.log(param) // value of foo from window object of renderer
  })
}
