Prototype app demonstrating one approach for using Ionic (v3+) with the ArcGIS API for JavaScript.

• Clone or download this repo
• Create an Ionic project. It can be either android or iOS

	npm install –g cordova ionic
	ionic start testApp tabs
	cd testApp
	ionic cordova platform add android
	npm install angular-esri-loader

• Then copy index.html, home.html and home.ts from this repo to their respective directories in your new project.
• Then build your project

	ionic cordova build android 
	ionic cordova run android

• Be sure to test your app on a native device!

• Last tested using Ionic 3.3.0, Angular Core 4.1.2, Android 7.2.1, Chrome 58.0.3029.110 (64-bit).

• Not getting a location result in Android - do the following steps:

  • If you are using Android Studio look for errors in Android Monitor. You may have also gotten an application alert box when the watchPosition() request timed out.
  • Add these permissions to the AndroidManifest.xml file. You can find it under /<your_project_directory>/platforms/android/:

   <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
   <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
  

  • Go into the application settings on the device and enable Location.
  • Close your application using swipe and then restart it.
