Summary: A demonstration of how to synchronize a single collection with RHMAP.
Community Project: Feed Henry
Target Product: RHMAP
Product Versions: RHMAP 3.8.0+
Source: https://github.com/feedhenry-templates/sync-cordova-app
Prerequisites: fh-js-sdk : 2.14.+, cordova 5.0+
This application shows how you can use SAML with the RHMAP platform, it should be used in combination with the SAML service and the SAML could app have a look at the notes how to setup the service. Refer to www/fhconfig.json for configuration.
If you do not have access to a RHMAP instance, you can sign up for a free instance at https://openshift.feedhenry.com/.
This application and its cloud services are available as a project template in RHMAP as part of the "SAML Example Project" template.
If you wish to contribute to this template, the following information may be helpful; otherwise, RHMAP and its build facilities are the preferred solution.
- fh-js-sdk : 2.14.+
- cordova: 5.0+
- npm install
- Edit
www/fhconfig.jsonto include the relevant information from RHMAP. - Edit
config.xmlto add an access tag for the SAML_ENTRY_POINT from RHMAP. - cordova serve
The fh-js-sdk and other development dependencies are defined in package.json and included in a www/main.js.
-
This generated
www/main.jsfile is checked-in to allow RHMAP studio preview to statically serve dependencies. -
The
www/js/init.jsfile is browserified and acts as a bridge between template script and npm dependencies. -
All the other JavaScript files in the template app will not be browserified, in order for you to be able to experiment live edit in RHMAP Studio preview.
To update the JS SDK:
- change the version in
package.json - run
npm installa grunt task is automatically ran to regenerate main.js - check-in git repo the npackage.json + main.js
Click the "Sign In" button to sign in via your configured SAML IdP, this will open a webbrowser that you can use to login
