PhoneGap Android Developer Tools

The PhoneGap developer tooling is split between general tooling and project level tooling.

General Commands

./bin/create [path package activity] ... create the ./example app or a phonegap android project
./bin/bench ............................ generate a bench proj
./bin/autotest ......................... test the cli tools
./bin/test ............................. run mobile-spec

Project Commands

These commands live in a generated PhoneGap Android project.

./phonegap/debug [path] ..................... install to first device
./phonegap/emulate .......................... start avd (emulator) named default
./phonegap/log .............................. starts logcat

Running the Example Project

Start avd (emulator) named default:

./bin/emulate

Create the example project and build it to the first device:

./bin/create
cd example
./phonegap/debug

Start adb logcat (console.log calls output here):

./phonegap/log

Running the callback/callback-test tests:

./bin/test

Creating a new PhoneGap Android Project

./bin/create ~/Desktop/myapp com.phonegap.special MyApp
