I'm having trouble using Ionic with this new multi-device-hybrid-apps feature of VS2013.
When I start my app using Ripple (F5 in visual studio) I see the error:
Keyboard.hideKeyboardAccessoryBar
We seem to be missing some stuff :(
A little context...
I've created the Ionic app using the ionic start myApp blank from the commandline which puts the index.html as well as other files into a www sub folder - the config.xml file is placed into the parent of www. Then I created a new vs project, using js codova template. The sln and jsproj files sit in the myApp folder. And I added the files keeping the Ionic folder structure.
I've noted that running ripple from the command line and starting it from the www path doesn't show the error.
cd .../myApp
ripple emulate --path www
but this does
cd .../myApp
ripple emulate --path .
Any advise on setting up the project in visual studio but keeping the ionic folder structure would be helpful. Thanks.
Multi-Device Hybrid Apps currently does not support the project structure that you're trying to use.
As a workaround, you can move the content out of /www and into the root of the VS project. At build time the files will be placed back into /www behind the scenes and things should work as expected.
Since as of March 2015 Visual Studio Tools for Cordova does not support the www folder, in order to support the same project both in VS IDE and in Ionic command line tools, you can * generate the project with ionic start ... * add an index.html in the root folder containing something like
<body>
<script>
window.location.href="www/index.html";
</script>
</body>
This way, Visual Studio will launch the Ripple emulator with the index.html in the root folder, which will then redirect to the contents in Ionic www folder.
The usual ionic cli commands such as ionic serve, ionic upload etc. will work this way.
