How to install

  • Clone or download this repo
  • Create an Ionic project. It can be either android or iOS
	npm install -g ionic
	ionic start testApp tabs
	cd testApp
    ionic cordova prepare android
	npm install esri-loader
  • Run a quick test to make sure that boilerplate Ionic project loaded but running ionic serve from your projects roots directory. If you don't get a web page launch then look for errors, something didn't install right.
  • Then copy index.html, tab1.page.html and tab1.page.ts from this repo to their respective directories in your new project.
  • Then build or run your project
  ionic cordova run android -1
  • Be sure to test your app on a native device!

  • Not getting a location result in Android - do the following steps:

    • If you are using Android Studio look for errors in Android Monitor. You may have also gotten an application alert box when the watchPosition() request timed out.
    • Add these permissions to the AndroidManifest.xml file. You can find it under /<your_project_directory>/platforms/android/:
     <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
     <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
    
    • Go into the application settings on the device and enable Location.
