electron-context-menu Build Status

Context menu for your Electron app

Electron doesn't have a built-in context menu. You're supposed to handle that yourself. But it's both tedious and hard to get right. This module gives you a nice extensible context menu with items like Cut/Copy/Paste for text, Save Image for images, and Copy Link for links. It also adds an Inspect Element menu item when in development to quickly view items in the inspector like in Chrome.

You can use this module directly in both the main and renderer process.

Install

$ npm install --save electron-context-menu

Usage

const {app, BrowserWindow} = require('electron');

require('electron-context-menu')({
	prepend: (params, browserWindow) => [{
		label: 'Rainbow',
		// Only show it when right-clicking images
		visible: params.mediaType === 'image'
	}]
});

let win;

app.on('ready', () => {
	win = new BrowserWindow();
});
