I used the existing anchors generated by Docbook, so the anchor part should be a no-op. This could be useful depending on the infrastructure we choose to use, and it is better to be explicit than rely on Docbook's id generating algorithms. I got rid of the metadata segments of the Markdown files, because they are outdated, inaccurate, and could make people less willing to change them without speaking with the author.

# Titanium {#titanium}
|
|
|
|
The Nixpkgs repository contains facilities to deploy a variety of versions of
|
|
the [Titanium SDK](https://www.appcelerator.com) versions, a cross-platform
|
|
mobile app development framework using JavaScript as an implementation language,
|
|
and includes a function abstraction making it possible to build Titanium
|
|
applications for Android and iOS devices from source code.
|
|
|
|
Not all Titanium features supported -- currently, it can only be used to build
|
|
Android and iOS apps.
|
|
|
|
Building a Titanium app
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
We can build a Titanium app from source for Android or iOS and for debugging or
|
|
release purposes by invoking the `titaniumenv.buildApp {}` function:
|
|
|
|
```nix
|
|
titaniumenv.buildApp {
|
|
name = "myapp";
|
|
src = ./myappsource;
|
|
|
|
preBuild = "";
|
|
target = "android"; # or 'iphone'
|
|
tiVersion = "7.1.0.GA";
|
|
release = true;
|
|
|
|
androidsdkArgs = {
|
|
platformVersions = [ "25" "26" ];
|
|
};
|
|
androidKeyStore = ./keystore;
|
|
androidKeyAlias = "myfirstapp";
|
|
androidKeyStorePassword = "secret";
|
|
|
|
xcodeBaseDir = "/Applications/Xcode.app";
|
|
xcodewrapperArgs = {
|
|
version = "9.3";
|
|
};
|
|
iosMobileProvisioningProfile = ./myprovisioning.profile;
|
|
iosCertificateName = "My Company";
|
|
iosCertificate = ./mycertificate.p12;
|
|
iosCertificatePassword = "secret";
|
|
iosVersion = "11.3";
|
|
iosBuildStore = false;
|
|
|
|
enableWirelessDistribution = true;
|
|
installURL = "/installipa.php";
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `titaniumenv.buildApp {}` function takes the following parameters:
|
|
|
|
* The `name` parameter refers to the name in the Nix store.
|
|
* The `src` parameter refers to the source code location of the app that needs
|
|
to be built.
|
|
* `preRebuild` contains optional build instructions that are carried out before
|
|
the build starts.
|
|
* `target` indicates for which device the app must be built. Currently only
|
|
'android' and 'iphone' (for iOS) are supported.
|
|
* `tiVersion` can be used to optionally override the requested Titanium version
|
|
in `tiapp.xml`. If not specified, it will use the version in `tiapp.xml`.
|
|
* `release` should be set to true when building an app for submission to the
|
|
Google Playstore or Apple Appstore. Otherwise, it should be false.
|
|
|
|
When the `target` has been set to `android`, we can configure the following
|
|
parameters:
|
|
|
|
* The `androidSdkArgs` parameter refers to an attribute set that propagates all
|
|
parameters to the `androidenv.composeAndroidPackages {}` function. This can
|
|
be used to install all relevant Android plugins that may be needed to perform
|
|
the Android build. If no parameters are given, it will deploy the platform
|
|
SDKs for API-levels 25 and 26 by default.
|
|
|
|
When the `release` parameter has been set to true, you need to provide
|
|
parameters to sign the app:
|
|
|
|
* `androidKeyStore` is the path to the keystore file
|
|
* `androidKeyAlias` is the key alias
|
|
* `androidKeyStorePassword` refers to the password to open the keystore file.
|
|
|
|
When the `target` has been set to `iphone`, we can configure the following
|
|
parameters:
|
|
|
|
* The `xcodeBaseDir` parameter refers to the location where Xcode has been
|
|
installed. When none value is given, the above value is the default.
|
|
* The `xcodewrapperArgs` parameter passes arbitrary parameters to the
|
|
`xcodeenv.composeXcodeWrapper {}` function. This can, for example, be used
|
|
to adjust the default version of Xcode.
|
|
|
|
When `release` has been set to true, you also need to provide the following
|
|
parameters:
|
|
|
|
* `iosMobileProvisioningProfile` refers to a mobile provisioning profile needed
|
|
for signing.
|
|
* `iosCertificateName` refers to the company name in the P12 certificate.
|
|
* `iosCertificate` refers to the path to the P12 file.
|
|
* `iosCertificatePassword` contains the password to open the P12 file.
|
|
* `iosVersion` refers to the iOS SDK version to use. It defaults to the latest
|
|
version.
|
|
* `iosBuildStore` should be set to `true` when building for the Apple Appstore
|
|
submission. For enterprise or ad-hoc builds it should be set to `false`.
|
|
|
|
When `enableWirelessDistribution` has been enabled, you must also provide the
|
|
path of the PHP script (`installURL`) (that is included with the iOS build
|
|
environment) to enable wireless ad-hoc installations.
|
|
|
|
Emulating or simulating the app
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
It is also possible to simulate the correspond iOS simulator build by using
|
|
`xcodeenv.simulateApp {}` and emulate an Android APK by using
|
|
`androidenv.emulateApp {}`.
