npm install cli-weboscli-webos
==============
Summary
-------
this is fork of ares-web-sdk
provides latest http://webostv.developer.lge.com/sdk/tools/using-webos-tv-cli/ in node module format
A module that provides:
* command line to generate, package, install, run and debug Open webOS applications.
* an Ares plugin generate, package, install, run and debug Open webOS applications from Ares IDE.
Install
-------
* In order to hack on ares-webos-sdk:
$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/enyojs/ares-webos-sdk
$ cd ares-webos-sdk
$ npm install
* In order to use a development tree of ares-webos-sdk from within your own project (eg. from the Ares IDE), manually add this modules under the source-code Ares using NPM:
$ cd /path/to/ares-webos-sdk
$ npm install
$ cd /path/to/ares-ide
$ npm install ../relative/path/to/ares-webos-sdk
* In order to use a specific version of ares-webos-sdk in your own modules (eg. from the Ares IDE), without actually working on it, then run npm install git@github.com:enyojs/ares-webos-sdk#0.0.1 where 0.0.1 is the version you want to use (_not yet working_).
* On Mac OS X, you need to install Xcode and Xcode Command Line Tools (Xcode -> Preferences -> Downloads -> Components)
Setup
-----
Please refer to SSH-KEY-SETUP.md for intructions.
In case your webOS SDK (and/or Ares IDE) are both running in VirtualBox guests, you need to tunnel the port 5522 from the IDE guest to the emulator guest (replace
$ ssh -L5522:localhost:5522
The commands ares-* can be invoked from anywhere in the file system provided the PATH
has been set correctly.
On Linux and Mac OS X:
$ export PATH=$PATH:
For exanple: export PATH=$PATH:/Users/ares/GIT/ares-webos-sdk/bin
On windows (cmd.exe):
> SET PATH=%PATH%;
For example: > SET PATH=%PATH%;C:\Users\ares\GIT\ares-webos-sdk/bin
NOTE: On Windows, you can also use a bash enviromment.
For example: Git for Windows which provides a bash shell as on Linux.
Command line usage
------------------
Warning: http proxy is not yet supported.
$ ares-generate -l
$ ares-generate -t bootplate-2.1.1-owo -p id=com.myapp -p version=1.2.3 -p title=MyApp MyApp
$ ares-package MyApp
NB: ares-package will minify the application if possible.
ares-package will also copy appinfo.json and framework_config.json after the minification
$ ares-install --list
$ ares-install --install com.myapp_1.0.0_all.ipk
$ ares-install --remove com.myapp
--install is the default:
$ ares-install com.myapp_1.0.0_all.ipk
$ ares-launch com.myapp
Project template configuration
------------------------------
There are two diferent project template configuration.
* for the command line ares-generate
* for the Ares IDE
The project templates used by the command line ares-generate are defined in the file templates/project-templates.json.
Additional templates could:
* be added directly into the file 'templates/project-templates.json'
* be added thru command line option '--repo
* be added directly in the code of ares-generate.
For that, go in 'lib/ares-generate.js' in the property 'this.repositories'.
The entries of 'this.repositories' can either be local files under the 'templates' directory or files accessible thru http.
This module "ares-webos-sdk" brings some additional project templates for webOS and override some project template definition brought by the Ares IDE.
This is done by the "genZip" entry of the file "ide.json" stored in the main directory of this module.
See Project template configuration in ares-project for more information.
Source code organization
------------------------
The source code of this module is organized as follow:
* ares/client: This is a browser side code of the webOS Ares plugin loaded in the Ares IDE. This part is written in enyo.
* ares/server: This is a server side code of the webOS Ares plugin loaded in the Ares IDE. This part is in javascript running into a nodejs server.
bin: This directory contains the .sh and .bat wrappers for the ares- commands
lib: This directory contains the javascript code used by the server side Ares plugin and the ares- commands.
* scripts: This directory contains script(s) used during 'npm install' to 'npm install' node modules integrated as git submodules.
* templates: This directory contains project template definitions
* test: This directory contains various tests for that module.
