main.js code description:

You should be setting up the open-url event in the will-finish-launching callback as per the docs. I had similar weird behaviour with open-file until it was setup within the will-finish-launching callback.

You notice they've done it this way in the example you link to.

Although it mentions this under will-finish-launching, it should really mention this under the open-url and open-file docs too as its quite easy to miss.

app.on('will-finish-launching', () => {
  // Protocol handler for osx
  app.on('open-url', (event, url) => {
    event.preventDefault();
    log("open-url event: " + url)
  })
});
