node.js - How to clear the cache data in Electron(atom shell)?

Question

I want to clear cache data in Electron(atom-shell). I don't find any api like gui.App.clearCache()(node-webkit api to clear cache data) in Electron. If you find any api or any other way please let me know. comments are appreciated .

Answer 1

The Electron stores it's cache in these folders:

Windows:
C:Users<user>AppDataRoaming<yourAppName>Cache

Linux:
/home/<user>/.config/<yourAppName>/Cache

OS X:
/Users/<user>/Library/Application Support/<yourAppName>/Cache

So deleting these folders can also help you. Of course this is one time solution ;-)
