 * Quick Test Script for Electron Backend Integration

 */

console.log('\n🧪 Electron Backend Integration Test\n');
console.log('This test helps verify that the unified API properly routes to Electron IPC');
console.log('instead of making HTTP requests to localhost:3003\n');

console.log('✅ FIXES APPLIED:');
console.log('1. Changed api.isElectron from static property to getter function');
console.log('2. Added debug logging to trace execution flow');
console.log('3. Ensured dynamic runtime detection of Electron environment\n');

console.log('📋 TESTING CHECKLIST:\n');
console.log('[ ] 1. Build frontend: npm run build:frontend');
console.log('[ ] 2. Start Electron: npm run electron');
console.log('[ ] 3. Open DevTools in Electron window (Ctrl+Shift+I / Cmd+Option+I)');
console.log('[ ] 4. Check console for startup messages:');
console.log('       - "🚀 AIO Converter Starting..."');
console.log('       - "📦 Mode: Desktop (Electron)"');
console.log('       - "✅ Running as Desktop App - Using local processing"');
console.log('[ ] 5. Navigate to GIF Maker tool');
console.log('[ ] 6. Add 2-3 images');
console.log('[ ] 7. Click "Create GIF"');
console.log('[ ] 8. Check console logs during GIF creation:');
console.log('       - "🎬 Creating GIF from X images"');
console.log('       - "📱 Running in Electron: true"');
console.log('       - "🔧 window.electronAPI available: true"');
console.log('       - "📱 Using Electron IPC for GIF creation"');
console.log('       - Should NOT see any fetch() requests to localhost:3003');
console.log('[ ] 9. Verify GIF is created successfully');
console.log('[ ] 10. Check Network tab - should have NO requests to localhost:3003\n');

console.log('❌ EXPECTED FAILURES (if fix not applied):');
console.log('- Console shows "🌐 Using HTTP API for GIF creation"');
console.log('- Network tab shows failed fetch() to http://localhost:3003/api/...');
console.log('- Error message: "Failed to fetch" or "NetworkError"\n');

console.log('✅ EXPECTED SUCCESS (after fix):');
console.log('- Console shows "📱 Using Electron IPC for GIF creation"');
console.log('- Network tab is empty (no HTTP requests)');
console.log('- GIF created successfully using local Sharp + GIF Encoder');
console.log('- File saved to temp directory and displayed in preview\n');

console.log('📁 RELEVANT FILES:');
console.log('- frontend/src/utils/unifiedAPI.js (FIXED)');
console.log('- electron/main.js (IPC handlers)');
console.log('- electron/preload.js (API exposure)');
console.log('- frontend/src/components/ImageGifMaker.jsx (uses unified API)');
console.log('- ELECTRON_BACKEND_FIX.md (full documentation)\n');

console.log('🎯 KEY CHANGE:');
console.log('Before: export const api = { isElectron: isElectron(), ... }');
console.log('After:  export const api = { get isElectron() { return isElectron(); }, ... }\n');

console.log('This ensures Electron environment is checked at RUNTIME, not at module load time!\n');
