Supported Features

Obfuscated Package (No Signature Required)

Even without a signature, JadePack applies a 3-layer reversible transform (XOR + byte permutation + bit rotation) to the packaged content, producing a non-plaintext obfuscated package. This is suitable for basic protection scenarios and requires no public key when loading.

Feature	Description
Content protection	3 layers of reversible transformation, stored as non-plaintext
Loading method	`JadeView_load_from_bytes`, no public key required
Use case	Internal tools, prototype distribution

Signed Package

Provides a complete security solution with Ed25519 signature + AES-256-GCM encryption, verifying the source and integrity to prevent tampering.

Feature	Description
Signature algorithm	Ed25519
Encryption algorithm	AES-256-GCM
Content protection	Dual protection of signature + encryption
Loading method	`JadeView_load_from_bytes` + public key
Use case	Production environments, commercial distribution

Unpacked Files

Supports storing certain files (such as .node native modules) as "unpacked", so they are not obfuscated/encrypted during packaging, allowing native modules to be loaded directly from the file system.

Compiling the Installer

Packages the application directory into an NSIS installer, containing the complete content including the main program, asset files, the WebView2 runtime, and more.

Configuration options:

Option	Description
Application directory	The root directory path of the application to be packaged
Main program	The entry executable file (e.g. `rtexA.exe`)
Application unique identifier	Matches parameter 5 used when initializing JadeView (e.g. `titles.jade.run`)
Excluded files	Files/folders excluded during packaging (wildcards supported), such as `AutoTheme.bak`, `JadeView.ec`, etc.
Application name	The program name displayed after installation
Application version	The installer version number (e.g. `1.0.5`)
Compression level	Compression strength; higher values yield a greater compression ratio but take longer. Options are `zip` / `lzma` / `solid`
Create desktop shortcut	Whether to create a shortcut on the user's desktop
Installation mode	The mode the user can select during installation (e.g. "Choose at install time")
Application icon	The icon file for the installer and shortcut (`.ico` format)
Output directory	The output path for the generated installer
Installation language	The language of the installation wizard interface, supporting Simplified Chinese, English, and more
WebView2 runtime	How to handle cases where WebView2 is not installed on the target system. "Online install — download during installation" means it is automatically downloaded and installed from Microsoft's servers
Minimum version	The minimum required operating system version (optional)

Workflow:

Switch to the Installer tab in the Build Center
Fill in the configuration options above
Click the Package and Generate Installer button
Wait for packaging to complete, then retrieve the .exe installer from the output directory

Relationship with the JadeView API

JAPK packages built by JadePack are loaded through the following APIs:

Load from a local file: set_protocol_service_path, see JAPK Asset Package Format
Load from memory: JadeView_load_from_bytes, see Loading from Memory

Signed packages are verified against the JadeTweak platform root public key embedded in JadeView; no runtime public key setup is required.
