For building the app:
$ ionic platform add ios (this only needs to be done once)
$ ionic build ios
For opening the app in the xcode simulator (Has active communication with couch):
$ ionic emulate
For emulating the app in a browser, from inside the project directory (Has live updates but, cannot communicate with couch)
$ ionic serve
To test the project on iPhone, open the xcode project file in xcode, check the parameters, and deploy. Project file location: TummyTrails > platforms > ios > TummyTrials.xcodeproj
Try using Ionic components for all UI elements: http://ionicframework.com/docs/
For making changes to the Ionic theme use SASS: http://learn.ionicframework.com/formulas/working-with-sass/
Try to follow the recommended style guide here: https://github.com/mgechev/angularjs-style-guide
For generating app icons and splash screen. Place icon and splash screen file and autogenerate all the variations http://blog.ionic.io/automating-icons-and-splash-screens/ If xcode throws an error for icon file path follow instructions at https://forum.ionicframework.com/t/error-itms-90032-invalid-image-path/42984
Temporary bug: When adding a platform to the project, if you get a build error regarding duplicate symbol _UIApplicationRegisterUserNotificationSettings, delete the AppDelegate+APPRegisterUserNotificationSettings.m file under Plugins in Xcode
For updating/adding to ioniocons follow instructions at https://github.com/driftyco/ionicons (fontforge should be the only missing dependence - installed via brew)
Once the svg has been copied to the folder tummy-trials/TummyTrials/www/lib/ionicons/src run the following commands:
navigate to tummy-trials/TummyTrials/www/lib/ionicons
$ python ./builder/generate.py
navigate back to tummy-trials/TummyTrials
$ sudo ionic setup sass
add back your custom css after above command, which removes it from your index.html
Upon doing so, make sure to delete the TummyTrials/www/lib/ionicons/builder/scripts/sfnt2woff file before packaging for xcode.
