# DISCLAIMER: NO LONGER MAINTAINED
Oh, [hello there](https://media.giphy.com/media/8JTFsZmnTR1Rs1JFVP/giphy.gif)! Ionic App Scripts is a tool tied specifically to version 3.x of Ionic Framework. Since the release of version 4.0 of Ionic Framework, we are no longer using Ionic App Scripts for building in Ionic Framework. Version 3 of Ionic Framework is no longer actively maintained by us. For more information on which versions are active, see our [support policy](https://ionicframework.com/docs/reference/support#framework-maintenance-and-support-status).
Due to this, we are no longer maintaining Ionic App Scripts and we recommend developers update their apps to the latest framework release. This provides several new features, bug fixes, performance improvements, as well as up to date tooling for Ionic apps. For more details on how to upgrade, check out our [migration guide](https://ionicframework.com/docs/reference/migration).

# Ionic App Scripts

Helper scripts to get [Ionic apps](https://ionicframework.com/) up and running quickly (minus the config overload).

To get the latest `@ionic/app-scripts`, please run:

```
npm install @ionic/app-scripts@latest --save-dev
```

### Config Defaults

Out of the box, Ionic starters have been preconfigured with great defaults for building fast apps, including:

- Multi-core processing tasks in parallel for faster builds
- In-memory file transpiling and bundling
- Transpiling source code to ES5 JavaScript
- Ahead of Time (AoT) template compiling
- Just in Time (JiT) template compiling
- Template inlining for JiT builds
- Bundling modules for faster runtime execution
- Treeshaking unused components and dead-code removal
- Generating CSS from bundled component Sass files
- Autoprefixing vendor CSS prefixes
- Minifying JavaScript files
- Compressing CSS files
- Copying `src` static assets to `www`
- Linting source files
- Watching source files for live-reloading

Just the bullet list above is a little overwhelming, and each task requires quite a bit of development time just to get started. Ionic App Script's intention is to make it easier to complete common tasks so developers can focus on building their app, rather than building build scripts.

Note that the [Ionic Framework's](https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic) source is made up of modules and can be packaged by any bundler or build process. However, this project's goal is provide simple scripts to make building Ionic apps easier, while also allowing developers to further configure their build process.


### npm Scripts

Instead of depending on external task runners, Ionic App Scripts now prefers being executed from [npm scripts](https://docs.npmjs.com/misc/scripts). Ionic's npm scripts come preconfigured in the project's `package.json` file. For example, this is the default setup for npm scripts in each starter:

```
  "scripts": {
    "ionic:build": "ionic-app-scripts build",
    "ionic:serve": "ionic-app-scripts serve"
  },
```

To run the `build` script found in the `package.json` `scripts` property, execute:

```
npm run build
```

## Environments

You can use Node style `process.env.MY_VAR` syntax directly in your typescript
and when the application is bundled it'll be replaced with the following order of precedence:
* If the variable exists in the process environment it will be replaced with that value.
* If the variable is not defined in the process environment it will be read from a `.env.dev`
file for dev builds or `.env.prod` file for prod builds which are located in the root of the app
* If the variable is not defined in either place it will be `undefined`

In order to take advantage of this apps will need a `src/declarations.d.ts` file with the following declaration:
```typescript
declare var process: { env: { [key: string]: string | undefined; } };
```

*Note*: This declaration may conflict if `@types/node` is installed in your project. See [#3541](https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic-cli/issues/3541).

## Custom Configuration

In many cases, the defaults which Ionic provides cover most of the scenarios required by developers; however, Ionic App Scripts does provide multiple ways to configure and override the defaults for each of the various tasks. Note that Ionic will always apply its defaults for any property that was not provided by custom configuration.

[Default Config Files](https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic-app-scripts/tree/master/config)

### package.json Config

Ionic projects use the `package.json` file for configuration. There's a handy [config](https://docs.npmjs.com/misc/config#per-package-config-settings) property which can be used. Below is an example of setting a custom config file using the `config` property in a project's `package.json`.

```
  "config": {
    "ionic_cleancss": "./config/cleancss.config.js"
  },
```

### Command-line Flags

Remember how we're actually running `ionic-app-scripts` from the `scripts` property of a project's `package.json` file? Well we can also add command-line flags to each script, or make new scripts with these custom flags. For example:

```
  "scripts": {
    "build": "ionic-app-scripts build --webpack ./config/webpack.dev.config.js",
    "minify": "ionic-app-scripts minify --cleancss ./config/cleancss.config.js",
  },
```

The same command-line flags can be also applied to `npm run` commands too, such as:

```
npm run build --webpack ./config/webpack.dev.config.js
```

### Ionic Environment Variables

These environment variables are automatically set to [Node's `process.env`](https://nodejs.org/api/process.html#process_process_env) property. These variables can be useful from within custom configuration files, such as custom `webpack.config.js` file.

| Environment Variable       | Description                                                          |

| `IONIC_START_WATCH_TIMEOUT` | Milliseconds controlling the default watch timeout |


The `process.env.IONIC_ENV` environment variable can be used to test whether it is a `prod` or `dev` build, which automatically gets set by any command. By default the `build` and `serve` tasks produce `dev` builds (a build that does not include Ahead of Time (AoT) compilation or minification). To force a `prod` build you should use the `--prod` command line flag.

`process.env.IONIC_ENV` environment variable is set to `prod` for `--prod` builds, otherwise `dev` for all other builds.


## All Available Tasks

These tasks are available within `ionic-app-scripts` and can be added to npm scripts or any Node command.

| Task       | Description                                                                                         |
|------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `build`    | A complete build of the application. It uses `development` settings by default. Use `--prod` to create an optimized build |
| `clean`    | Empty the `www/build` directory.                                                                          |
| `cleancss` | Compress the output CSS with [CleanCss](https://github.com/jakubpawlowicz/clean-css)                |
| `copy`     | Run the copy tasks, which by defaults copies the `src/assets/` and `src/index.html` files to `www`. |
| `lint`     | Run the linter against the source `.ts` files, using the `tslint.json` config file at the root.     |
| `minify`   | Minifies the output JS bundle and compresses the compiled CSS.                                      |
| `sass`     | Sass compilation of used modules. Bundling must have at least ran once before Sass compilation.     |
| `watch`    | Runs watch for dev builds.                                                                          |

Example NPM Script:

```
  "scripts": {
    "minify": "ionic-app-scripts minify"
  },
```

## Tips
1. The Webpack `devtool` setting is driven by the `ionic_source_map_type` variable. It defaults to `source-map` for the best quality source map. Developers can enable significantly faster builds by setting `ionic_source_map_type` to `eval`.
2. By default, the `lint` command does not exit with a non-zero status code on error. To enable this, pass `--bailOnLintError true` to the command.

```
"scripts" : {
  ...
  "lint": "ionic-app-scripts lint"
  ...
}
```

```
npm run lint --bailOnLintError true
```
