NotePost App
|
|
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is a client app for NotePost. It has some offline capabilities and can be
|
|
|
|
built for most platforms by using [Apache Cordova](https://cordova.apache.org)
|
|
|
|
for mobile devices or [NW.js](https://nwjs.io) for PCs.
|
|
|

Platform Support
|
|
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Tested and should work on:
|
|
|
|
* Android 5+ (up-to-date WebView implementation required)
|
|
|
|
* Linux (amd64 and i386)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Not tested but should work on:
|
|
|
|
* Raspberry Pi (using a custom build of NW.js like
|
|
|
|
[this one](https://github.com/LeonardLaszlo/nw.js-armv7-binaries))
|
|
|
|
* Windows
|
|
|
|
* MacOS (we don't currently offer Mac builds, see below)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are no official builds for Mac for a few reasons: we don't own any Mac
|
|
|
|
computers; Mac builds are about 4x the size of the other builds; and the best
|
|
|
|
Mac build we could get working on a Linux build server was a ZIP file. If you
|
|
|
|
want official Mac builds, you'll need to write a working Jenkins build script.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you want an iOS build, donate $100 for an Apple Developer account. The
|
|
|
|
framework this app uses has an iOS stylesheet, so it'll even look native.

Building for NW.js
|
|
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Since this is a webapp, there isn't really a build process.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Install [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com), and run `./yarninstall.sh` to grab dependencies.
|
|
|
|
2. Get [NW.js](https://nwjs.io) and unpack it into a folder (we'll use `~/nw.js`).
|
|
|
|
3. Move to the `www` folder in this repository and run `~/nw.js/nw .`
|
|
|
|
4. The process is basically the same for non-Linux systems, just use the appropriate
|
|
|
|
version of NW.js.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Building for Cordova/Android
|
|
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This assumes you have Cordova and a working Android SDK installed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Install [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com), and run `./yarninstall.sh` to grab dependencies.
|
|
|
|
2. Run `./removebloat.sh` to cut the APK size in half.
|
|
|
|
3. Run `cordova platform add android`.
|
|
|
|
4. Run `cordova build android --release`.

If you're making custom builds and distributing them, you need to [contact us](https://netsyms.com/contact) and

get permission to use the app name ("NotePost") and icon (`logo.png` and the files in `/res`).

If you're not customizing anything but simply building the app, you don't need permission,

but we would love if you contact us and let us know.
