Electron.Net icon not used - icons

I tried the following to set my custom icon for Electron.Net application (it is a Blazor application). I tried pretty much any absolute path / relative path combination I could think of, nothing helped...
For some reason, the icon (both in main window as in Task bar) keeps using the default icon... I tried pretty much any configuration but nothing seems to help... Maybe it is my MyIcon.ico icon that is at fault here? Does it need to be of specific resolution, or anythig?
Strange is - the splash image is showing... What am I doing wrong here?! (ps: for now I am only trying to build electron for Windows)
Here my electron.manifest:
{
"executable": "MyFirstApp",
"splashscreen": {
"imageFile": "/wwwroot/Images/MySplash.png"
},
"name": "MyApp",
"author": "Me",
"singleInstance": false,
"environment": "Production",
"build": {
"appId": "com.MaApp.app",
"productName": "MyApp",
"copyright": "Copyright © 2020",
"buildVersion": "1.0.18",
"win": {
"icon": "wwwroot/Images/MyIcon.ico"
},
"compression": "maximum",
"directories": {
"output": "../../../bin/Desktop"
},
"extraResources": [
{
"from": "./bin",
"to": "bin",
"filter": [ "**/*" ]
}
],
"files": [
{
"from": "./ElectronHostHook/node_modules",
"to": "ElectronHostHook/node_modules",
"filter": [ "**/*" ]
},
"**/*"
]
}
}

Answer was RELATIVE path should be used from the compilation output directory, as stated here.

How to setup VSCode to debug Firebase Functions?

Pre-requisite: Firebase and node is setup correctly in the local machine
Requirements:
I only need to click the "Start Debugging (F5)" in VSCode once, then all other setup will be done automatically and I can start debugging.
When I change the code in editor during debugging, the change will be deployed and effective immediately
I can keep start and stop debugging session without worrying about process clean up because it's handled automatically after ending debugging session (Shift-F5)
You need only 2 files. Once they are in place, you can F5 to start debugging and Shift-F5 to stop debugging Firebase Functions.

How to solve this error in the name property of composer.json validation?

I got this error as i validate my composer.json file:
[Composer\Json\JsonValidationException]
"./composer.json" does not match the expected JSON schema:
- name : Does not match the regex pattern ^[a-z0-9]([_.-]?[a-z0-9]+)*/[a-z0-9](([_.]?|-{0,2})[a-z0-9]+)*$
The name Property looks like this:
"name":"lukas735/united-in-faith",
I also tried out the following alternations:
"lukas735/united-in-faith",
"lukas/united-in-faith",
"lukas735/united.in.faith",
"lukas/united.in.faith",
"lukas735/united_in_faith",
"lukas/united_in_faith",
"lukas/uif",
"lukas735/uif",
None of this worked... The regex proofer said the forward slash is placed wrong... But its composer intern so i can't change anything on that. And anyway. My strings also not got matched if i corrected that in regex proofer.
Is there anyway to let match my united-in-faith String... The name before was just an account name because a video said this vendor-name can be choosed yourself... But video was from 2016. I found no hints in internet where to find the vendor-name. So i choosed it myself.
I saw some videos and topics about this naming convention, but they all not seemed to giving an answer which solved it.
What did I wrong?
Has anybody a solution for this error?
Here is my Composer.json File:
{
"name":"lukas735/united-in-faith",
"description":"description",
"keywords": [
"united-in-faith",
"united in faith",

Debugging ASP.NET Web App on VS Code Linux doesnt work

I'm testing out ASP.NET Core using this tutorial: https://www.blinkingcaret.com/2018/03/20/net-core-linux/
When building and running from the terminal, both the CLI and Web app works fine:
Web app:
dotnet run
Using launch settings from /home/peter/Documents/dotnet_linux/Reminders.Web/Properties/launchSettings.json...
info: Microsoft.AspNetCore.DataProtection.KeyManagement.XmlKeyManager[0]
User profile is available. Using '/home/peter/.aspnet/DataProtection-Keys' as key repository; keys will not be encrypted at rest.
Hosting environment: Development
Content root path: /home/peter/Documents/dotnet_linux/Reminders.Web
Now listening on: https://localhost:5001
Now listening on: http://localhost:5000
Application started. Press Ctrl+C to shut down.
However from VS Code 1.28.1 I can only run the CLI app. When I add a configuration for the web app:
{
// Use IntelliSense to find out which attributes exist for C# debugging

I get the error

You have an extra angle bracket.

how to debug dotnet application with running parameter

I can run from command line. But if I try to run in vscode, how to add parameter in launch.json? I am running on .dotnet 2.0
dotnet run --kestrelTransport Libuv
If running from vscode, how should I configure launch.json?
The demo launch.json is attached below.
{
// Use IntelliSense to find out which attributes exist for C# debugging
// Use hover for the description of the existing attributes
// For further information visit https://github.com/OmniSharp/omnisharp-vscode/blob/master/debugger-launchjson.md

"request": "launch",
"preLaunchTask": "build",
// If you have changed target frameworks, make sure to update the program path.
"program": "${workspaceFolder}/bin/Debug/netcoreapp2.0/Benchmarks.dll",
"args": [],
"cwd": "${workspaceFolder}",
"stopAtEntry": false,
"internalConsoleOptions": "openOnSessionStart",
"launchBrowser": {
"enabled": true,
"args": "${auto-detect-url}",
"windows": {
"command": "cmd.exe",
"args": "/C start ${auto-detect-url}"
},
"osx": {
"command": "open"
},
"linux": {
"command": "xdg-open"
}
},
"env": {
"ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT": "Development"
},
"sourceFileMap": {

}
},
{
"name": ".NET Core Attach",
"type": "coreclr",
"request": "attach",
"processId": "${command:pickProcess}"
}
]
}
You can replace
"args": [],
with
"args": ["--kestrelTransport", "Libuv"],

Run grunt task with target/argument in VSCode

I have VSCode version 1.18.1, and this in my Gruntfile.js
grunt.registerTask('release', 'Release process', function(target) {
...
}
The target is there so that I can run grunt release:one or grunt release:two. However, I can't figure out how to make VSCode run the task with the one|two target.
This is tasks.json file VSCode created with Grunt task auto detected.
{
// See https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=733558
// for the documentation about the tasks.json format
"version": "2.0.0",
"tasks": [
{
"type": "grunt",
"task": "release",
"problemMatcher": [],
"label": "Release Process",
"group": {
"kind": "build",
"isDefault": true
}
}
]
}
If I put release:one to the task attribute of the tasks.json file, VSCode will complain with something like
Error: The grunt task detection didn't contribute a task for the following configuration:
Anyone has done something similar to this? Can you please guide me on how to do it?
Thank you!
The way I solved this issue myself was by creating a Task of type shell instead, and putting in the full command. For example, you can do following:
{
"version": "2.0.0",
"tasks": [
{
"type": "shell",
"label": "Release one",
"command": "grunt release:one",
"problemMatcher": [],
}, {
"type": "shell",
"label": "Release two",
"command": "grunt release:two",
"problemMatcher": [],
}
]
}
