xcode-select --install

Using homebrew, run the following:

brew install node

Run Mobidex from XCode to use the simulator. First do the following:

1. pushd ios && bundle install --path .gems && bundle exec pod install && popd
2. Open ios/mobidex.xcworkspace in XCode
3. Go to Build Settings for Pods > libsodium and disable Use Header Maps

Run Mobidex in an Android emulator:

1. In the terminal, execute npm start.
2. Open android studio and import mobidex from the android directory
3. Comment out android.enableAapt2=false in gradle.properties
4. Sync gradle files

Available Scripts

npm start

Run the development server which is necessary for debug configurations of the App.

npm run patch

Patches isomorphic-fetch for use with react-native.

npm run build:android:release

This will construct a signed android release. This is the preferred method of constructing an APK at the moment.

NOTE: Make sure gradle.properties has android.enableAapt2=false. Otherwise, the build will fail with:

mobidex/android/app/build/intermediates/res/merged/release/drawable-hdpi/node_modules_reactnavigation_src_views_assets_backicon.png: error: uncompiled PNG file passed as argument. Must be compiled first into .flat file..
error: failed parsing overlays.

Release

Android

Run npm run build:android:release. See notes above.

iOS

1. Open mobidex in XCode
2. Archive App
3. Upload app to app store

Notes

Web3 and 0x.js

Web3.js does not load because of its dependence on node.js standard libraries. The majority of them are loaded via the node-libs-react-native library. In particular, the crypto library requires the vm library, which cannot be easily mocked or replaced. To circumvent this, I've forked node-libs-react-native and added a browserified crypto library: https://github.com/abec/node-libs-react-native.
