Luxembourg Mobile

Build Requirements

Building the Luxembourg Mobile Sencha Touch app (LuxMob) requires installing Sencha Cmd 4.0.4.84, which has its own requirements (see below).

The Android SDK Tools are also required to build the app for Android.

Sencha Cmd

Download Sencha Cmd 4.0.4.84 for your OS. See http://cdn.sencha.com/cmd/4.0.4.84/release-notes.html

You can also download linux64 version here.

Unzip the downloaded zip file:

$ unzip SenchaCmd-4.0.4.84-linux.run.zip

Run the installer:

$ ./SenchaCmd-4.0.4.84-linux.run --prefix ~/local/opt/ --mode unattended

Using the unattended mode the installer does not prompt the user for questions.

The above command installs Sencha Cmd under ~/local/opt/Sencha/Cmd/4.0.4.84/. The installer also modifies your .bashrc file to extend PATH and set SENCHA_CMD_3_0_0. So sourcing .bashrc should make the sencha command available in the shell.

JDK

Ant, used by Sencha Cmd, and the Android SDK require a JDK. Make sure you have JDK 7 installed. See http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk7-downloads-1880260.html.

Compass

Compass is needed for the project: http://compass-style.org/install/

Android SDK

Download the Android SDK Tools from http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html.

For example:

$ wget http://dl.google.com/android/ndk/android-ndk-r9d-linux-x86.tar.bz2
$ tar xvjf android-ndk-r9d-linux-x86.tar.bz2

To be able to build the LuxMob app, and run it in the Android emulator, you need to install the Android SDK Platform-tools, and at least one platform and system image.

You can use the Android SDK Manager for that, which you launch by executing tools/android sdk. In the Manager select and install Android SDK Platform-tools, and SDK Platform and System Image for a version of Android (4.2).

Now create an Android Virtual Device (AVD) using the AVD Manager, which you launch by executing tools/android avd.

You should now be able to start the emulator: tools/emulator -avd <virtual_device_name>, where <virtual_device_name> is the name of the virtual device you just created. For example:

$ emulator -avd nexus7

Use adb devices to see the list of Android devices. The emulated Android device should be listed as a device:

$ adb devices
List of devices attached
emulator-5554   device

Also, for Sencha Cmd to find the Android SDK Tools you need to have the paths to the platform-tools and tools directories in your PATH.

For example:

$ export PATH=${PATH}:${HOME}/local/opt/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools:${HOME}/local/opt/android-sdk-linux/tools

To persist that adjust the setting of the PATH in your .bashrc.

Build

To build the web app run this command:

$ make

Cordova native apps

Prerequisites

In order to build the native apps, you need to install cordova-cli first.

$ npm install -g [email protected]

Android

To build the Cordova Android app run this command. A password for the keystore may be asked:

$ make android

To build and run the debug version:

$ make android-debug

You may need to run the following command prior to the one above:

$ cd cordova-app && cordova platform update android

This is intended to fix issues with path in local properties config files.

iOS

To build the Cordova iOS app run this command:

$ make ios

You then have to open cordova-app/platforms/ios/geoportail.lu.xcodeproj in XCode and run it.

If you change the source code of the Sencha app you don't need to run make before running make android or make ios. The latter commands will build the Sencha app when required.

Push the web app to SVN

To be able to deploy the web app it is first needed to copy/commit it into the Luxembourg project's SVN repository. The actual deployment of the mobile web app is done as part of the standard deploy procedure (deploy-geoadmin.sh).

To copy/commit the web app into the Luxembourg project's SVN use the copy-to-svn target:

$ make copy-to-svn

This target checks out the Luxembourg project from SVN, updates the mobile web app in the luxmob directory, and commits the update.

Install and run app on Android

To install the LuxMob app on an Android device you will use the adb install command. You can choose the device using the -s switch. Use adb devices to know what devices you have available.

For example:

$ adb -s emulator-5554 install -r build/LuxMob/android/bin/LuxMob-debug.apk

The LuxMob app should now available in the Android device.

To see (filtered) logs in a console:

$ adb logcat | grep -v '^[W\/Trace|E\/StrictMode|E\/ActivityThread]'

Install and run app in iOS emulator

Open build/LuxMob/ios/LuxMob.xcodeproj in Xcode and press Run.

Create .ipa for Ad-Hoc deployment

Add test devices

  • Go to https://developer.apple.com/ios/manage/devices/index.action , and add devices UUID.

  • Then you have to add them to the Provisioning Profile: Go to https://developer.apple.com/ios/manage/provisioningprofiles/index.action Edit->Modify «Luxembourg mobile» profile, then check the devices.

  • You can now download it, and send it to testers with the «.ipa». (You may have to download it & open with xcode, or update it with XCode Organizer).

Create .ipa

  • Make a production build : make ios.
  • Select iOS Device, in the test device combo. In the menu, select Product->Archive. The Organizer windows show up; select the latest archive and click on Distribute button.
  • Choose Save for Entreprise or Ad-Hoc Deployment, then sign with your identity.
  • Then you can save your «.ipa», without checking Save for Entreprise Distribution.
