Development Guide

Prerequisite

To build Cesium, you will have to:

• Installing build tools:

 sudo apt-get install build-essential

• Installing nvm

  wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.34.0/install.sh | bash

Then reload your terminal, for instance by executing the commande bash

• Configure NodeJS to use a version 6: (WARNING: upper version will NOT work !)

  nvm install 6

• Installing node.js build tools:

   npm install -g gulp bower cordova @ionic/v1-toolkit@2.0.18

Get the source code and dependencies

• Getting source and installing project dependencies:

  git clone git@git.duniter.org:clients/cesium-grp/cesium.git
  cd cesium
  npm install

• Installing Cordova plugins (need for platforms specific builds)

  ionic state restore
  ionic browser add crosswalk@12.41.296.5

• This should create a new directory platforms/android

To remind: check that your command line is configured:

• You must place yourself in the directory of the application: cd cesium
• and be configured for NodeJs v6: nvm use 6 (please check using the command node --version)

Prepare environment, then compile and launch
