Compatibility with PhoneGap about ember-cli-cordova

[jakecraige]

Wow. phonegap serve is awesome, I had not heard of it before so thanks for that info. I just tested it out and it works great.

Here's how I got it working:

1. cd into the cordova/ folder and run mkdir .cordova this is how phonegap checks it's a cordova project source
2. run phonegap serve within the cordova/ folder

Let me know if you have any trouble getting it to work

@kibiz0r As an update to this, you can actually use the PhoneGap developer app with ember-cli, but without using phonegap's serve command.

The way this works is that their app simply set's the location.href to the url phonegap serve serves up that page and polls that server for changes. Since ember-cli run's it's own server and injects livereload this isn't necessary. You can simply set the app's location.href to your local ember-cli app. Unfortunately due to the way it sets up it's polling you can't do this with their app straight out of the box. I have a fork I'll be working on that allows this though found here To use it you'll need to download it and run it locally and then enter the URL of your ember app. Currently the plugins will not work unless you copy them from (on iOS) cordova/platforms/ios/plugins and cordova/platforms/ios/cordova* to the public directory

That being said, it does work with the serve command with a few steps, so I'll close this out. We can definitely continue discussion here though

Awesome! Thanks for the quick reply, I'm really impressed by this project. If I figure out something to contribute, I'll be sure to submit a PR. 😄

@jakecraige @kibiz0r Just seen this and that looks very promising indeed and would be extremely useful to have proper support for that and mention it in the readme. Would have saved us quite some development time.

Just looking at your fork @jakecraige, you changed the line config.address = config.address || '127.0.0.1:3000';, so if you serve ember on port 3000 it should work as well? Or can you not just customize it via config.address? (This is the very first time I am seeing the phonegap app)

And what is the reason that the original ajax requestion with url: getAddress('/__api__/register'), does not work?

It does not seem to work with the new PhoneGap App Version Anymore.

Console spits out:
404 /api/appzip

And in the app it says: "Unable to download archive from the server. Please upgrade the Phonegap CLI or check your network settings."
