Mobile application using Ionic
This is my first mobile (hybrid) application created using Ionic framework. I am using Mac OS along with the Android Studio/Android SDK to compile and simulate the application. Here are the steps need to follow from the sketch.
First, need to install Ionic and Cordova on your Mac/PC,
npm install -g cordova ionic
Can check all installed properly using the following commands,
ionic -v AND cordova -v
Second, need to install and setup Android SDK,
The simple way in install Android Studio and to go,
Tools->Android->SDK Manager
Can see all the available android versions over there. Do check the appropriate version you want and proceed with the installation.
Then make sure that, android PATH set in the global paths. To do that simply open ~/.bash_profile and add the following lines,
Then reload the configuration,
source ~./bash_profile
After than, you need to Gradle installed in you system.
First, make sure that JDK/JVM installed,
java --version
Then, you can download and install gradle from the following link,
https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.5-all.zip?_ga=2.172956901.771809966.1517681737-1948008393.1517539234
I found the above link from https://gradle.org/install/. You can install it manually using the 'Install manually' section. Please use the 'complete' option. After download, you can extract the contents to the location wherever you need. I used the following location,
/usr/local/gradle-4.5
Then, set the path,
export PATH=/usr/local/gradle-4.5/bin:$PATH
Then reload the configuration,
source ~./bash_profile
Check the version of Gradle,
gradle -v
Now, all good to go with the application implimentation
# Generate project boilerplate with tabs
ionic start <appName> tabs
# Run application
ionic serve
# Create a new module/page
ionic g page <pageName>
# Create a new service/provider
ionic g provider <providerName>
