Unable to determine Electron version. Please specify an Electron version - electron

I was trying to create executable file for electron app but faced this issue
Unable to determine Electron version. Please specify an Electron version
Though I have electron installed on my machine globally but still it was giving me error.

Install electron as dev-dependency to resolve this issue
npm install --save-dev electron

cmake.js and node_module_version

After building my electron node addon using cmake-js I got the following error
This version of Node.js requires
NODE_MODULE_VERSION 103. Please try re-compiling or re-installing
What's the proper way to specify the node module version in cmake.js file or in the cmake-js compile command?

I am having a problem while packaging my electron app using the electron-builder?

This error window appears as soon as I enter my app after packaging it using the electron-builder
although the devDependencies for electron-updater is included
electron-builder does not include devDependencies in the packaged application since they're exclusive for development, you should reinstall electron-updater as a dependency.
From the electron-builder website:
A complete solution to package and build a ready for distribution Electron app for macOS, Windows and Linux with “auto update” support out of the box.
NPM packages management:
Native application dependencies compilation (including Yarn support).
Development dependencies are never included. You don’t need to ignore them explicitly.

Buildozer not using correct kivy version when packaging for android

I am having a couple of problems packaging my Kivy app for android which may, or may not be related:
The only packages my app imports other than Kivy, are the time, and math modules. When I add either or both of them to the requirements in the buildozer spec file, I get a "pip._internal.exceptions.DistributionNotFound: No matching distribution for time." error. When I don't include them in my requirements, the build is successful, but crashes upon open with the error:
"Exception: The version of Kivy installed on this system is too old. (You have 1.11.1, but the application requires 2.0.0)"
I am doing the install in a VirutalBox on Ubuntu, and have followed the installation procedure outlined in the Kivy, and Buildozer documentation, as well as following a tutorial by Eric Sandberg on YouTube. I have set the Kivy version in the buildozer spec file, and installed Kivy 2.0.0 on the VM using pip. When I pip freeze, it shows the correct version of Kivy. One thing I have noticed is the when I try and install it with "apt-get install python3-kivy", it says kivy 1.10 is installed and that this is the most up to date version.
This seems like an easy problem to address but I have cannot figure out why it is trying to use this version of Kivy! Please let me know if any other information is required to debug. The spec file is hardly changed, other then specifying Kivy=2.0.0 in requirements.
Here are the logs:
Here are the requirements:
You don't have to add math and time in requirements of your buildozer.spec file as they are inbuild modules in python. So, they will automatically get added when you add python3 in your requirements.
To use a newer versio version of kivy you have to specify it in your requirements. In requirements you have to add like requirements=python3,kivy==2.0.0rc4 or any other version you want to use. Also, after changing requirements you might have to rebuild you package. You have to delete .buildozer directory and again run the buildozer using buildozer android debug deploy run

Can electron-forge be used with Electron 3.0?

I would like to use some Electron 3.0 new APIs in my electron-forge application, but I am not finding any information of which electron version is electron-forge supporting?
I am currently running electron-forge 5.2.2.
Can anyone please help?
Well it seems actually that electron-forge is installing its own version of electron as part of dependencies of electron-prebuilt-compile. So you can't actually upgrade yourself.

Install version cordova-ios 4.3.0 for visual studio and issue with cordova command not existing in CLI

Someone has asked the exact question I need on this page.
However, as I am new, my rep will not allow me to comment yet! So I have had to create a new question.
A guy in the question linked above suggests to "Type cordova platform add ios;". So there I suppose is where my question is different.
When I type Cordova in cmd prompt, I get a message saying "cordova is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."
Update: Please note, I have followed these steps: http://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/7.x/guide/cli/ And I am able to run the npm commands in CLI. I was hoping to simply update my ios version only.
I have also looked up PATH but I have no idea where to start, problem is, people suggest that I shouldn't need to adjust PATH as running the CLI commands to install the Cordova CLI should just allow me to use it?
So to summarize:
I downloaded the node.js and installed it
I typed this into cmd "npm install -g cordova" which installed
I type "cordova" and get my "cordova is not recognized as an internal or external command" message above
My aim is to upgrade my cordova-ios 4.2.0 to cordova-ios 4.3.0 to fix my main error of "remote build requires your projects to use cordova-ios 4.3.0 or greater with XCode 8.3"
Update 2 9th oct 2017:
I have given up for now with the above, to work around this i installed Node.js 8.6.0 then updated cordova using npm... im now facing some more issues that I am again stuck on and will create a new question.
Hopefully in the meantime, someone can answer this question and i can try again.
I suspect my issues could be relating to the fact i installed VS 2017 and used all the built in nuget packages (for cordova and node.js) and they are conflicting with the manual way in some way (i suspect that, as running the "cordova" command on my other PC worked fine!)
