PhoneGap's Cordova build Android app

PhoneGap is the powerful software to open Android app through HTML5, it's the advent of the second kill all learn mobile Android, iOS software niche.

As a front-end HTML5 developer, I cannot help but say that this software benefits human beings.

First PhoneGap needs to install the following software:

Nasty:Eclipse(I am also drunk, a learning front-end, press this Java thing, let me think for a long time)

SDK Manager

node. js

Git (so I can get the PhoneGap plugin automatically)

Specific content official online too detailed, I will not bother, and the version of the different, the installation of the method is not the same ...

Let me just say, as a front-end engineer, how to do as little as possible without eclipse.

let's get started.

One:

Be sure to follow the official website, the Android SDK Androd API tools installed (I use the api22,android4.0), if the card can not install virtual machine Oh!

Configure the Android environment variable (if not configured, the following Cordova run ANDROID command error): Android_home,android_path,android_tools, add three variables to the PATH variable Amount of

both :

Now you need to install the Cordova toolset via the node. js command line NPM

$ sudo npm install -g cordova

Three:

Build my app through the Cordova command set, as follows:

  $ cordova Create   "folder name"    COM   example   hello   "app icon name"   

"Folder name"

At this time, you have to put your code in the root directory of the WWW, the www to have the cordova.js file, continue as follows:

    $ cordova platform add android

After creating the Android version of the code, we need to install the Android plugin we need to better invoke the local features on the device.

If you are calling a plugin for the first time, you need to download the reference plugin from the Web using the following command:

$ cordova plugin add org.apache.cordova.device

To delete a plugin:

$ cordova plugin rm org.apache.cordova.device

If you are not the first to call a plug-in, you can set the root directory of CONFIG. Platforms\android\res\xml\config.xml, which will be synchronized to the following, automatically install the local existing plugins:

    <feature name= "Whitelist" >        <param name= "Android-package" value= " Org.apache.cordova.whitelist.WhitelistPlugin "/>        <param name=" onload "value=" true "/>    </ feature>    <feature name= "Notification" >        <param name= "Android-package" value= " Org.apache.cordova.dialogs.Notification "/>    </feature>    <feature name=" Vibration ">        <param name= "Android-package" value= "org.apache.cordova.vibration.Vibration"/>    </feature>    <feature name= "Streamingmedia" >        <param name= "Android-package" value= " Com.hutchind.cordova.plugins.streamingmedia.StreamingMedia "/>    </feature>    <feature name=" Device ">        <param name=" android-package "value=" Org.apache.cordova.device.Device "/>    </ Feature>

Four :

by trying, I was unable to implement Cordova build Android and Cordova run Android, so I connected the phone install app by importing the Android directory code into eclipse.

If you need to modify the code, you only need to modify the code in the Android directory.
