EpiCollect+ Mobile Client HTML5

Epicollect+ Mobile Client based on HTML5 built in collaboration with Citizen Cyberlab

Dependencies

• Cordova CLI 5.0 resolving to Cordova 3.8 on iOS and Cordova 4.0.0 on Android
• jQuery Mobile 1.3.2

Platforms supported

• Android 4.1+ (Jelly Bean, released in July 2012)
• iOS 7+ (Released in September 2013)

Installation

Clone repo (png resources were added manually using git add res/ios/*.png -f)

Add Android using Cordova CLI

Plugins dependencies are added automatically via Cordova hooks when adding Android

Copy res/android/ files to proper folder under platform/android

Run cordova prepare to copy file per each platform

Open project in Android Studio (Android) or Xcode (iOS)

Fix deployment info, Java import ect. if needed

Update Android Manifest file, change default theme to Holo Light android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light.NoActionBar"

Run on device

Look for log errors about missing plugins and fix (I am looking into this but no solution so far)

Custom URL schemes need to be added manually to Android manifest and iOS plist files (if you want to deeplink your app to a web page, otherwise you can skip this)

iOS: http://goo.gl/SPLNo
Android: `todo`

Currently using 4.0.0 on Android, where jsHybugger (debugging tool) does not work. It would work on 3.7.0 but Eclipse does not compile the project (missing .jar). To debug Android <4.4, clone repo, use to 3.7 and debug there. Make the changes to the main repo manually.

For debugging, add console.error(_error.message); to SQLitePlugin.js at line 375 as it is catching general errors which have nothing to do with the plugin or database

Enable file sharing on iOS (useful for "Export to CSV" feature to be able to get hold of the csv bundle) adding <key>UIFileSharingEnabled</key> <string>YES</string> to info.plist
