Get Window by Name
Building
To compile the extension for the first time, run
$ npm i
$ npm run configure
$ npm run build
All subsequent builds only need npm run build
Compatibility
Currently, this only runs on Windows. Linux support is being considered. macOS support will probably never come, since I'm not even sure anything on macOS actually sets a window title (I'll happily add macOS support if someone proves me wrong).
Usage
Just require the module
const test = require('./NativeExtension.node');
and use the (only) getWindowText
function
getWindowText([executableName])
:
executableName (optional): the name of the executable that you want the info for. Omitting this argument will return every process
Returns an
Array
of processes that match the argument
process
Object structure:
{
processId: Number,
processName: String,
processTitle: String
}
Todo (pull requests welcome!)
- Add Linux support
- Fix tests
- Add automatic build server
