Add comprehensive documentation explaining the order of precedence for
environment variables in TimeSafari project. Covers shell script overrides,
platform-specific configurations, .env file usage, and API alignment between
claim and partner APIs. Includes troubleshooting guide and best practices
for maintaining consistent environment configuration across development,
test, and production environments.
Extend custom API IP feature to iOS platform with platform-appropriate defaults:
- Android: Defaults to 10.0.2.2 for emulator, custom IP for physical devices
- iOS: Uses localhost for simulator, custom IP for physical devices
- Added npm scripts for iOS custom IP builds (dev:custom, test:custom)
- Updated documentation to cover both platforms with examples
- Consistent --api-ip parameter across Android and iOS build scripts
Usage:
./scripts/build-ios.sh --dev # Default localhost
./scripts/build-ios.sh --dev --api-ip 192.168.1.100 # Custom IP
Implement --api-ip parameter for Android builds with smart defaults:
- Defaults to 10.0.2.2 for emulator development when no IP specified
- Supports custom IP for physical device development
- Added npm scripts for common use cases (dev:custom, test:custom)
- Updated help documentation with usage examples
- Created comprehensive documentation with troubleshooting guide
Usage:
./scripts/build-android.sh --dev # Default 10.0.2.2
./scripts/build-android.sh --dev --api-ip 192.168.1.100 # Custom IP
- Move Android-specific API server logic from common.sh to build-android.sh
- Remove unnecessary ANDROID_BUILD environment variable
- Set localhost:3000 as default in common.sh for all Capacitor builds
- Override to 10.0.2.2:3000 specifically in build-android.sh for Android development
- Fix execution order issue where common.sh ran before ANDROID_BUILD was set
- Maintain proper separation: Android emulator uses 10.0.2.2, iOS simulator uses localhost
- Removed 24 redundant build:capacitor:* scripts that were just aliases
- Kept essential build:capacitor and build:capacitor:sync scripts
- Improves script clarity and reduces maintenance overhead
- No functional changes to build processes
- Implement scripts/build-ios.sh with dev/test/prod, IPA, deploy, and Xcode support
- Integrate all iOS build and legacy scripts into package.json (including deploy)
- Update docs/ios-build-scripts.md: mark as complete, add usage and status
- Update README.md: add iOS to quick start, platform builds, and docs links
- Ensure iOS build system matches Android/Electron pattern for consistency
- Create build-electron.sh script following build-android.sh patterns
- Add support for multiple build modes: dev, package, appimage, deb
- Implement comprehensive error handling with specific exit codes
- Add proper logging and step-by-step build process tracking
- Include built-in help system and verbose logging options
Build Script Features:
- Development builds that compile and launch Electron app
- Package builds for creating distributable applications
- Support for AppImage and Debian package generation
- Automatic cleanup of previous builds and artifacts
- TypeScript compilation with proper error handling
- Capacitor sync and asset generation integration
NPM Script Integration:
- Add build:electron for development builds
- Add build:electron:package for distributable packages
- Add build:electron:appimage for AppImage packages
- Add build:electron:deb for Debian packages
- Add clean:electron for build artifact cleanup
Common Utilities Enhancement:
- Extend setup_build_env() to support 'electron' build type
- Configure proper environment variables for Electron builds
- Maintain consistency with existing build infrastructure
This provides a complete, automated build solution for Electron
that matches the quality and functionality of the Android build
system, enabling reliable cross-platform desktop application builds.
