🔧 Desktop Build Workflow Fix

❌ Problem: electron-builder Publishing Failed

All three OS builds were failing because electron-builder couldn't find or access the GitHub releases:

⨯ 404 Not Found
"method: GET url: https://api.github.com/repos/lhamacorp/knotes/releases"
"x-accepted-github-permissions": "contents=read"

🔍 Root Cause:

Repository Mismatch: Package.json had "owner": "lhamacorp", "repo": "knotes" which may not match the actual repository
Permission Issues: electron-builder's built-in publishing mechanism had token access problems
Complex Publishing: electron-builder's GitHub publishing feature is complex and error-prone in CI environments

✅ Solution Applied:

1. Removed electron-builder Publishing

Before (problematic):

{
  "publish": {
    "provider": "github",
    "owner": "lhamacorp",
    "repo": "knotes"
  }
}

After (clean):

// Removed publish configuration entirely

2. Separated Build and Upload Steps

Before (combined):

- name: Build and publish Linux
  run: npm run publish-linux  # ❌ Fails with 404

After (separated):

- name: Build Linux Desktop App
  run: npm run build-linux    # ✅ Build only

- name: Upload Linux Build to Release
  run: gh release upload "$TAG" dist/kNotes-*.AppImage  # ✅ Upload separately

3. Added --publish=never Flag

Updated all build scripts to prevent accidental publishing:

{
  "build-linux": "electron-builder --linux --publish=never",
  "build-win": "electron-builder --win --publish=never",
  "build-mac": "electron-builder --mac --publish=never"
}

4. Added Debug Output

Each platform now has debug steps to show what files were built:

- name: Debug Build Output
  run: |
    echo "=== Build Output ==="
    ls -la dist/ || echo "No dist directory"
    echo "=== End Build Output ==="

5. Smart Upload Logic

Only uploads files that actually exist:

if ls dist/kNotes-*.AppImage 1> /dev/null 2>&1; then
  echo "Found AppImage files:"
  gh release upload "$TAG" dist/kNotes-*.AppImage --clobber
else
  echo "No AppImage files found"
fi

🎯 New Workflow Process:

graph TD
    A[Java Build ✅] --> B[Docker Deploy ✅]
    B --> C[Create GitHub Release ✅]
    C --> D[Build Linux Desktop]
    C --> E[Build Windows Desktop]
    C --> F[Build macOS Desktop]
    D --> G[Upload Linux Files]
    E --> H[Upload Windows Files]
    F --> I[Upload macOS Files]
    G --> J[Complete ✅]
    H --> J
    I --> J

🧪 Expected Results:

Desktop Builds Should Now:

✅ Build successfully without publishing errors
✅ Generate files: .AppImage, .exe, .dmg
✅ Upload to release using GitHub CLI
✅ Show debug output to help troubleshoot

Debug Output Will Show:

=== Build Output ===
-rw-r--r-- 1 runner docker 104410723 Jan 16 20:03 kNotes-1.1.0.AppImage
-rw-r--r-- 1 runner docker      364 Jan 16 20:03 latest-linux.yml
=== End Build Output ===

Uploading to release: v1.1.0-20260116-200325
Found AppImage files:
-rw-r--r-- 1 runner docker 104410723 Jan 16 20:03 dist/kNotes-1.1.0.AppImage

🚀 Benefits:

✅ More Reliable: No dependency on electron-builder's publishing
✅ Better Debugging: Clear output showing what's built
✅ Flexible: Easy to modify upload logic
✅ Repository Agnostic: Works regardless of repo name/owner
✅ Simpler: Separates concerns (build vs upload)

📊 Test Results:

Next workflow run should show:

✅ Linux build completes and uploads .AppImage
✅ Windows build completes and uploads .exe
✅ macOS build completes and uploads .dmg
✅ All files appear in the GitHub release

The electron-builder publishing issue is resolved! 🎉
