Build Process Quick Reference

🚨 Critical Build Steps

# 1. Build web assets
npm run build

# 2. Sync with native projects  
npx cap sync android

# 3. 🔧 FIX PLUGIN REGISTRY (REQUIRED!)
node scripts/fix-capacitor-plugins.js

# 4. Build and deploy Android
cd android
./gradlew :app:assembleDebug
adb install -r app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk
adb shell am start -n com.timesafari.dailynotification.test/.MainActivity

⚠️ Why Step 3 is Critical

Problem: npx cap sync overwrites capacitor.plugins.json and removes custom plugins.

Solution: The fix script restores the DailyNotification plugin entry.

Without Step 3: Plugin detection fails, "simplified dialog" appears.

🔍 Verification Checklist

After build, verify:

capacitor.plugins.json contains DailyNotification entry
System Status shows "Plugin: Available" (green)
Plugin Diagnostics shows all 4 plugins
Click events work on ActionCard components
No "simplified dialog" appears

🛠️ Automated Build Script

Create scripts/build-and-deploy.sh:

#!/bin/bash
set -e

echo "🔨 Building web assets..."
npm run build

echo "🔄 Syncing with native projects..."
npx cap sync android

echo "🔧 Fixing plugin registry..."
node scripts/fix-capacitor-plugins.js

echo "🏗️ Building Android app..."
cd android
./gradlew :app:assembleDebug

echo "📱 Installing and launching..."
adb install -r app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk
adb shell am start -n com.timesafari.dailynotification.test/.MainActivity

echo "✅ Build and deploy complete!"

🐛 Common Issues

Issue	Symptom	Solution
Empty plugin registry	`capacitor.plugins.json` is `[]`	Run `node scripts/fix-capacitor-plugins.js`
Plugin not detected	"Plugin: Not Available" (red)	Check plugin registry, rebuild
Click events not working	Buttons don't respond	Check Vue 3 compatibility, router config
Inconsistent status	Different status in different cards	Use consistent detection logic

📱 Testing Commands

# Check plugin registry
cat android/app/src/main/assets/capacitor.plugins.json

# Monitor native logs
adb logcat | grep -i "dailynotification\|capacitor\|plugin"

# Check app installation
adb shell pm list packages | grep dailynotification

Remember: Always run the fix script after npx cap sync!
