This project was generated with Angular CLI version 1.7.4.

This project has been updated following the official Angular update guide.

This project shows you how to:

* Use Capacitor in Ionic.
* Use Capacitor Youtube Player (Works on web, android and ios).
* Use NGXS for state management in Ionic 6.
* Use NGXS plugins:
    * Devtools: Plugin with integration with the Redux Devtools extension.
    * Logger: A simple console log plugin to log actions as they are processed.
    * Forms: Plugin that helps to keep your forms and state in sync.

App Example

App

API used in this project

You can launch the movies API in two ways:

  • [NEW] Use the following project in Deno that I created to learn & practice my skills: Movies Rest API with Deno

  • Use the option I initially used when developing the project: JSON Server

Start movies rest API with Deno

Check out the instructions in the repository

Start fake json server

    $ cd json-server
    $ json-server --watch db.json

Development server

Run ng serve for a dev server. Navigate to http://localhost:4200/. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.

Build

Run ng build to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/ directory. Use the -prod flag for a production build.

Capacitor: Add Platforms

    $ npx cap add ios
    $ npx cap add android

Capacitor: Syncing your app

Every time you perform a build (e.g. npm run build) that changes your web directory (default: www), you'll need to copy those changes down to your native projects:

    $ npx cap copy

Capacitor: Open IDE to build

    $ npx cap open ios
    $ npx cap open android

Code scaffolding

Run ng generate component component-name to generate a new component. You can also use ng generate directive|pipe|service|class|guard|interface|enum|module.

Running unit tests

Run ng test to execute the unit tests via Karma.

Running end-to-end tests

Run ng e2e to execute the end-to-end tests via Protractor.
