Run jobs in electron app

[thepasto]

Hi, i'm trying to run a background job in electron app using electron-react-boilerplate.

I can't get it woking on production build, here's what i tried.

main.ts

await (async () => {
    await schedule.start();
  })();

schedule.js

const schedule = new Bree({
  logger,
  root:
    process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development'
      ? path.join(__dirname, 'jobs')
      : path.join(process.resourcesPath, 'jobs'),
  defaultExtension: 'js',
  errorHandler: (error, workerMetadata) => {
    console.error(error);
    console.dir(workerMetadata);
  },
  jobs: [
    {
      name: 'iride_sync',
      timeout: false,
      interval: '1m',
    },
  ],
});

jobs/iride_sync.js

import dbSync from '../dbSync';
import { logger } from '../utils/logger';

(async () => {
  try {
    await dbSync();
  } catch (e) {
    logger.error(e);
  }
})();

Packaged app contains jobs folder as well, here's the message i got back.

{"level":"INFO","time":"2023-12-06T07:58:43.652Z","pid":244224,"hostname":"tuxedo","msg":"Worker for job \"iride_sync\" online"}

I tried to use, ts files with defaultextension, and ts-worker, but things are not working as expected anyway.
Anybody can help me to find a way? If more infos are needed just ask!

Thanks in advance
