isMisspelled() always returns false on Win 7 #79
Description
Hi,
I've been using the spellchecker on Macos and Win10 and it works perfectly on both.
Unfortunately when I try to use it on Win7 it is not working.
getAvailableDictionaries() return an empty array.
I tried to add this to my configuration and it copy correctly the files but it doesn't change anything.
...
"extraResources": [
{
"from": "node_modules/spellchecker/vendor",
"to": "app.asar.unpacked/node_modules/spellchecker/vendor",
"filter": "**/*"
}
],
...
The doc says :
Windows 7 and below as well as Linux will rely on Hunspell
But no matter what I try, the array of available dictionaries stays empty and isMisspeled return always false. By default I set the dictionary to en-US.
Does any of you have successfully setup the spellchecker for Windows 7 with Hunspell and if yes, how ?

I just ran into the same issue, and got it working with the help of this issue.
We are using
electron-packager, and I added the.affand.dicextensions to unpack, which adds the dictionary files toapp.asar.unpacked\node_modules\spellchecker\vendor\hunspell_dictionariesHere's our config:

You can use https://github.com/Wulf/nodehun in the meanwhile.
brew install hunspellorsudo apt-get install hunspell. Not sure about Windows support, but it looks like Chocolatey has hunspell package as well.
