I am creating a phonegap application in ios and i am following below mentioned link
http://docs.phonegap.com/en/1.9.0/guide_getting-started_ios_index.md.html
It is said in the link that we need to download the phone gap, which i had done already
and then click on the cordova based application, but in my app I am not getting the options
to select the same.
So can anyone suggest how it can be done?
PhoneGap installation process has been changed. You will not get any template in Xcode and we can do is creating app in terminal
List of this you need to install phoneGap are
1. node.js
2. cordova
3. phonegap
first install node.js and then phone gap/cordova
once your installation is completed open terminal and then create a cordova based application
use this for creating process
http://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/3.3.0/guide_cli_index.md.html
this for plugins
http://docs.phonegap.com/en/3.4.0/cordova_plugins_pluginapis.md.html#Plugin%20APIs
cd to your workspace
cd /Users/xxxx/Desktop
create cordova project
cordova create your-project-name
cd to your project
cd your-project-name
add ios platform
cordova platform add ios
build your project using cordova build
cordova build ios
done !!

I have a old ionic project that run in version 1.3.3. And I updated to new version 5.4.16. But, when I try build the project using "ionic platform add ios"
Its doesn't work and I receive this message:
Unable to find command: platform add ios
I look for this in doc, but nothing done.
Is there anything I can do or some other command that replaces ionic platform add ios in newer versions?
It's: ionic cordova platform add ios
https://ionicframework.com/docs/cli/commands/cordova-platform
As has been mentioned in https://github.com/cordova-rtc/cordova-plugin-iosrtc/blob/master/docs/Building.md#apple-store-submission in order to submit the app to App Store we need to strip simulator (i386/x86_64) archs from WebRTC binary and as the very last step to do so it says:
Remove ios cordova platform if already added and add ios platform again (e.g. with a command cordova platform remove ios && cordova platform add ios) or remove and add only the plugin at your own risk.
I have a capacitor/react project in which I am using the above mentioned cordova plugin. And unfortunately you can not use cordova commands in capacitor/react environments!
How can I invoke such command in a capacitor/react project or is there any equivalent steps I can take to get the same result?
Those are cordova instructions, for Capacitor just run npx cap update ios or npx cap sync ios
I'm new to the iOS side of things and I’m having a huge issue. None of my changes I am making to my views are being built when I build iOS. I run
sudo cordova build ios
Then I open Xcode and “sign” it. I then run from Xcode to my test device. But no changes are made. Even when I remove the iOS platform, add it back, rebuild iOS, run from Xcode, my changes still have not taken effect in the build. Am I missing something?
After you update your view, the process is:
1. build the components and pages and copy the result into www dir.
2. copy the contents in www into ios project, with ionic prepare command.
3. build your ios project.
With the latest version of ionic, it will be done one one command ionic cordova build ios, but if you use some old version of ionic, maybe you need to run:
ionic build
ionic cordova build ios
I am experiencing the problem that Xcode does not incorporate any changes made to HTML/CSS/JS files when rebuilding the app for iOS
Right now I am deleting the whole platforms/ios folder and rerunning cordova add platform ios every time. This can't be the intended way of testing cordova apps. What is a good workflow for testing cordova apps on an iOS device?
Well, the recommended workflow for testing Cordova apps is not using Xcode at all, just use the Cordova CLI to run your apps. But the truth is that running from the CLI might be slower than using Xcode.
What you need to copy the changes from www to the Xcode project is to run cordova prepare ios before running from Xcode. You can do it manually or create a Xcode build script to run it for you.
To add a build script, on Xcode select your project target, go to Build Phases, click the + button and select New Build Script phase.
You can try to just add cordova prepare ios and this might work.
If you get a cordova command not found, then you also need to add Cordova path to your PATH. To do it, open a terminal and type which cordova, you'll get the Cordova path, something like /Users/davidnathan/.nvm/versions/node/v4.4.7/bin/cordova.
Now add that path without the cordova part to your build script before the cordova prepare ios, something like
PATH=/Users/davidnathan/.nvm/versions/node/v4.4.7/bin/:$PATH && cordova prepare ios
Move the build script to be over the existing "Copy www directory"
Try ionic cordova prepare ios.
I have finished building and compiling the Android version of the application from my windows laptop.
But to run it on IOS, am I supposed to copy the application folder to a MAC computer and run "ionic run ios"?
Follow these steps.
Check whether Ionic is already installed in Mac by typing ionic -v.
If Ionic is already installed, type the following commands:
ionic platform add ios.
ionic build ios.
If Ionic is not installed yet,
First install Node.js in Mac.
Then install Cordova and Ionic by using this command:
npm install -g cordova ionic
Once done with the installation, use the above commands for adding platform and build.
Then you will able to see Xcode file in platform folder iOS.
Then you can ask iOS developer to generate ipa file for iOS build.
You should add ionic ios platform before build
ionic platform add ios
