Create an Angular workspace with Ionic app and OpenAPI client lib

Prerequisits

You need an OpenAPI spec file for the client lib to be generated. You might use this archetype com.c4-soft.springaddons:spring-webmvc-archetype and mvn clean install -Popenapi it to get such a spec file.

How to use

  • make sure you cd to your project home dir
  • in this project home dir, put copies of both OpenAPI spec file and the directory containing this repo
  • run the following (edit variables and npm init values according to your needs):
# Edit this exports according to your needs
export WORKSPACE_NAME=angular-workspace
export APP_NAME=poc
export API_LIB_NAME=poc-api
export API_SPEC_FILE=poc-api.openapi.json
export CAPACITOR_ID=com.c4_soft.poc

npm set init.author.email "[email protected]"
npm set init.author.name "ch4mpy"
npm set init.license "Apache-2.0"

# Prepare a script copy
cp angular-ionic-workspace-template/init.sh $WORKSPACE_NAME.sh
sed -i 's/WORKSPACE_NAME/'$WORKSPACE_NAME'/g' $WORKSPACE_NAME.sh
sed -i 's/APP_NAME/'$APP_NAME'/g' $WORKSPACE_NAME.sh
sed -i 's/API_LIB_NAME/'$API_LIB_NAME'/g' $WORKSPACE_NAME.sh
sed -i 's/API_SPEC_FILE/'$API_SPEC_FILE'/g' $WORKSPACE_NAME.sh
sed -i 's/CAPACITOR_ID/'$CAPACITOR_ID'/g' $WORKSPACE_NAME.sh
sed -i 's/HOSTNAME/'$HOSTNAME'/g' $WORKSPACE_NAME.sh
sed -i 's/USERNAME/'$USERNAME'/g' $WORKSPACE_NAME.sh

cp angular-ionic-workspace-template/_package.json angular-ionic-workspace-template/package.json
sed -i 's/API_LIB_NAME/'$API_LIB_NAME'/g' angular-ionic-workspace-template/package.json

cp angular-ionic-workspace-template/_index.html angular-ionic-workspace-template/index.html
sed -i 's/APP_NAME/'$APP_NAME'/g' angular-ionic-workspace-template/index.html

# Install required tools
npm i -g @angular/cli
npm i -g @ionic/cli

# Go!
bash $WORKSPACE_NAME.sh

# cleanup
rm $WORKSPACE_NAME.sh
rm angular-ionic-workspace-template/package.json
rm angular-ionic-workspace-template/index.html

What is done

  • create an Angular workspace
  • add an Angular application to this workspace
  • turn this regular Angular app into an Ionic one (install dependencies, replace or edit angular config files)
  • replace Angular minimal app with an Ionic app composed of a menu in a split-pane and two pages
  • add an Angular lib to Angular workspace. This lib is generated by openapitools from the OpenAPI spec file produced by Spring REST API (with mvn clean verify -Popenapi)

What is not done

  • Replace Angular schematics with Ionic ones (I personally prefer Angular ones). To do so: 
    sed -i 's/"@schematics\/angular:component": {/"@ionic\/angular-toolkit:page": {\
    "style": "scss"\
},\
"@ionic\/angular-toolkit:component": {/' $WORKSPACE_NAME/angular.json;
sed -i 's/"projectType": "application"/"projectType": "application",\
"cli": {\
    "analytics": false,\
    "defaultCollection": "@ionic\/angular-toolkit"\
}/' $WORKSPACE_NAME/angular.json;
  • Configure Angular apps to be served over https:
    • run: 
      sed -i 's/"serve": "ionic serve"/"serve": "ionic serve --ssl --external --public-host='$HOSTNAME' -c='$HOSTNAME'"/' projects/$APP_NAME/package.json
sed -i 's/"android": "ionic capacitor run android -l/"android": "ionic capacitor run android -l --ssl --external --public-host='$HOSTNAME' -c='$HOSTNAME'/' projects/$APP_NAME/package.json
    • In angular.json, for each app, under architect -> serve -> configurations, add (after editing HOSTNAME, USERNAME and APP_NAME): 
      "HOSTNAME": {
  "browserTarget": "APP_NAME:build:development",
  "host": "HOSTNAME",
  "ssl": true,
  "sslCert": "C:/Users/USERNAME/.ssh/HOSTNAME_self_signed.crt",
  "sslKey": "C:/Users/USERNAME/.ssh/HOSTNAME_req_key.pem"
},
  • Configure Android or iOS app deep links. To do it on Android:
    • Add intent filters in AndroidManifest.xml such as: 
          <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
        <data android:scheme="https" android:host="bravo-ch4mp" android:port="8100" />
    </intent-filter>

    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
        <data android:scheme="https" android:host="localhost" />
    </intent-filter>
  • Configure Android or iOS app to use https. To do it on Android:
    • Add this to CapacitorConfig in projects/$APP_NAME/capacitor.config.ts: 
      server: {
    hostname: 'localhost',
    androidScheme: 'https'
}
    • create file res/xml/network_security_config such as (android resources names can not contain '-'): 
      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<network-security-config>
    <base-config cleartextTrafficPermitted="false">
        <trust-anchors>
        <certificates src="@raw/bravo_ch4mp_self_signed"/>
        <certificates src="system"/>
        </trust-anchors>
    </base-config>
</network-security-config>
      Here:
      • cleartextTrafficPermitted="false" forces the use of https for all trafic
      • <certificates src="@raw/bravo_ch4mp_self_signed"/> is required only if certificate used by remote servers are self-signed (res/raw/bravo_ch4mp_self_signed.crt is the certificate with which my local API instance is served)
    • Add networkSecurityConfig property to application tag in AndroidManifest.xml: 
      <application
    ...
    android:networkSecurityConfig="@xml/network_security_config">
