Money Splitter

This is Android/IOS/browser app which helps to split bills in a group of people.

Google Play

Pre-requisites

• Android Studio. Don't try to install all android-related drivers manually, just install Android Studio, it doesn't worth it.. Without Android Studio you will only be able to debug the app in browser.
• Node 14.20.x, 16.13.x or 18.10.x
• Java 17
• Android Debug Bridge (ADB) if you would like to test the app on your own phone, not just emulator

Start application

1. Copy files from Github - Settings - Environments - dev to:

   • src/environments/environment.prod.ts
   • src/environments/environment.ts

2. Instal dependencies npm install

3. I don't know exact steps to start the app, it is hell every time... Try to play with these commands:

   • npx ng build
   • npx cap copy - (Copy required files to android folder)
   • npx ionic capacitor run android -l --external - (Start emulator)

4. Also you may try to open project in Android Studio, build and run app from there:

   • npx cap open android

Debug on your own phone

Via WiFi

1. Enable Debug mode Settings - System - Developer Options - Wireless debugging
2. Click at Wireless debugging and then Pair device with QR code
3. Open Android Studio - Devices - Pair Devices Using Wi-Fi
4. Scan QR code with your mobile phone
5. After pairing you may need to click Connect
6. Deploy app to your mobile phone using Run app button in Android Studio or using command npx ionic capacitor run android -l --external

Via USB

1. Enable Debug mode at Settings - System - Developer Options - USB debugging
2. Connect your phone to PC using USB cable
3. Deploy app to your mobile phone using Run app button in Android Studio or using command npx ionic capacitor run android -l --external

Environments

Note that there are two environments DEV and PROD. At your mobile phone you may install both of them and they will be treated as independent applications with separate storage and so on..

It means that you can run npm run start-android--win (--macOS) and do what every you want with this app, production app with real data will be untouched.

Just make sure that the application has "DEV" prefix in the name and "DEV" icon.

Release

1. npm run build
2. Increment versionCode by 1 and minor version of versionName in android/app/build.gradle
