Support Electron v25

[willemdjong]

Hello,

I'm reaching out to request support for Electron v25. I'm experiencing a crash with the following error message: "Error: Could not detect abi for version 25.2.0 and runtime electron. Updating 'node-abi' might help solve this issue if it is a new release of Electron."

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Best regards,

Hi,

I've already added the support in 3c76237 but never did a release for just that. It's gonna need a new beta release for the package.

Subscribe to release notifications. I'll try to do a beta as soon as I get some free time.

UPDATE:

It seems like I can do a stable release 8.5.0 since @mceachen also did because of all the nagging at WiseLibs/better-sqlite3#1013. 😆

Thanks @m4heshd much appreciated!

Just released v8.5.0. Prebuilt binaries will be ready in a couple of hours. Closing the issue.

@m4heshd Referring back to your previous fix, it appears that there might be a missing prebuilt binary package for Windows. Here's the relevant log:

@willemdjong That's expected because we aren't building for Windows on arm since it's not possible to do so at the moment. GitHub doesn't provide arm based runners. You can take a look at their response at actions/runner-images#768. arm64 is only supported using self-hosted runners which aren't free to set up.
