I have installed SenchaCmd-6.0.2.14-windows-64bit.exe and it installed into the folder C:\users\myname\bin....
I am trying to create a new app. I have tried the cmd given in the sencha site. But it says "Not a framework directory".
Kindly help me to start it... I am new to Extjs
After downloading Sencha CMD you'll need to download the EXT JS SDK or you can download the GPL version. You can get them from official Sencha website (as you would have downloaded Sencha CMD).
Then you can generate the app by specifying the location where you have kept the EXT JS SDK or else, navigate to location where you have kept the EXT JS SDK using command prompt, then give the generate command. For example.
D:\ext-6.0.2-trial\ext-6.0.2>sencha generate app YouAppName <location>
Specify the location where you want to create the files of the application, usually the c:\inetpub\wwwroot directory if you are using IIS server on Windows.

I use Phonegap Desktop and Phonegap Developer app for a while now. This is really interesting for quickly testing my development.
But I'm facing a limitation with the embedded barcode scanner which is displaying the camera display in full screen.
I need to embed the camera display into a container so I have space for displaying information in the same time.
After searching for a while, I've discovered the Scandit SDK for PhoneGap was the only plugin which allows cropping the camera display.
I spent a lot of time trying to implement Scandit, but no success. At least I can build the app, but when using it, scanner is not working...
Here are the steps I've followed:
clone the PhoneGap Developer project from Git
Install using npm
add ios platform
open the xcode project file
build the application and run it on device
=> At this time the PG Dev is running well and my application is working fine
Then, i continued:
remove all reference to the default barcode scanner plugin
build the application and run it on device
==> PG Dev still working fine and my application is working fine
Next steps:
clone the Scandit phonegap plugin from Git
download the Scandit SDK from my scandit account
put the SDK into the cloned scandit phonegap plugin
modify the plugin.xml to change the path to the bundle and framework (mismatch of version name in the path)
<resource-file src="src/ios/scanditsdk-community-ios_4.16.1/ScanditBarcodeScanner.bundle"/>
<framework src="src/ios/scanditsdk-community-ios_4.16.1/ScanditBarcodeScanner.framework" custom="true"/>
copy bundle and framework into the correct folder of scandit
modify the config.xml to include reference to Scandit and set the spec attribut to the version of the SDK
build the application and run it on device
==> PG Dev still working fine and my application is working fine (it doesn't use scandit for the moment)
Next steps:
Remove my project from PhoneGap desktop
add Scandit Sample project to PG Desktop
I used the "Continuous Scaled/Cropped" example from there: http://docs.scandit.com/4.12/phonegap/cordova-examples.html
add my App Key for the license
launch my PG Dev app on my device and download the project files
==> PG Dev is running fine and download the Scandit Sample App.
But the app doesn't work. When clicking on the scan button, nothing happends..
After some investigation, I found that I ran through an exception on Scandit class.
Adding a try on the command 'Scandit.License.setAppKey' allowed me to report in the PG Desktop log the following error:
ReferenceError: Can't find variable: Scandit
Adding this try/catch made the app raising an exception at the next line:
var settings = new Scandit.ScanSettings();
After searching the web about my error, and some posts were suggesting to manually add the framework and bundle into xcode.
So I did it by drag&droping the framework and bundle into the framework folder of the xcode project.
But when I try building my project, it is failing with many errors...
To solve it, I had to had manually all the scandit plugin files (*.h and *.m) into my xcode project.
All previous errors have been solved, but new ones appeared.
This was due to some other missing native ios frameworks...
Once these framework added, all errors were solved and I managed to successfully build the application.
But when running it, I'm still having the error: "ReferenceError: Can't find variable: Scandit"
I'm now running out of idea..
What did I do wrong?
Is there anyone having managed to build a PG Desktop with Scandit embedded?
Thanks.
Sorry for this long post, just tried to be the more precise I could be.
The issue here is two fold. First you need to be aware that the Scandit Barcode Scanner plugin makes use of native code and can therefore not be used in the Phonegap Developer app, as the only thing transmitted to it is your html/css/javascript and the javascript part of the plugin. To also include the native parts of the plugin you have to build and deploy the project yourself. As you are trying to build the XCode project it seems like you are now doing this.
The second part is that you are way overcomplicating the adding of the plugin. There is no need for you to manually clone the git repo, add our libraries, adjust paths in the plugin.xml etc. You can directly download the entire plugin as a zip from your account at scandit.com where the library is contained and the plugin.xml is correct. After that you can simply add the plugin to your project through the CLI (also see our documentation for this at http://docs.scandit.com/stable/phonegap/cordova-integrate.html) and there is no need to do anything manually unless you are using a very outdated Phonegap version that fails to properly handle the plugin.xml. Doing it the automated way with our properly prepared plugin zip will remove most error sources, please try it that way.
Thanks #moritzha. It helped me finding the solution.
I followed this doc at the beginning but it was not working.
After adding the plugin and building the application, I never managed to see it in my xcode project.
I took the opportunity of changing my mac to restart everything from scratch, and after many tries I found where I was wrong.
In fact, the documentation provided by scandit is missing one step.
The command ' phonegap plugin add < path to downloaded and unzipped plugin > ' is doing half of the job.
The command is correctly copying the plugin files to my project but it is not updating the config.xml.
So before building your application, you have to edit the config.xml located at the root of your project folder.
You need to manually reference the plugin with the following:
and replace the x by the version of the sdk you will use.
Once the config.xml updated, you will be able to build the app for your targeted platform.
I now have my own version of the Phonegap Developer App with the Scandit plugin in place of the default barcode scanner plugin. And it works perfectly.
This plugin is awesome!
PhoneGap Developer App version: 1.7.2 (taken on Github)
I use ExtJS 5 and build my application using Sencha Cmd.
I have Sencha app generated inside my maven based webapp.
I would like to host the SDK on some CDN and still be able to use Sencha Cmd "sencha app build" etc. Is this possible? I need to trip down the size of my webapp.
Please guide.
Do not upload this folder to source control at all.
Instead, put a readme file to tell fellow developers (who will want to build the dev version of the app) how to install Sencha ExtJS and re-generate this ext folder on their side using this command:
cd <path_to_your_app_root>
sencha app upgrade <path_to_extjs_root_folder>
Other project stackholders (Testers, management, ...) should use the production version of the app.
Is there is any way to build Extjs 4.2 application without including the Ext libraries. Till now I have used sencha cmd to generate and build my app. But now the Ext libraries are on server side and I have to build my application without including Ext libraries.
Can I do it using Sencha cmd or any other tool?
Kindly help.
I'm not entirely clear on what the problem is (Ext JS library being "on the server") but yes, you can build an Ext JS application without Sencha Cmd (example is for v5.1, but applies to all versions).
In order to use Sencha Cmd, you do need a copy of the SDK locally. I'm not sure why you can't simply copy it to your local machine (it should be checked into your SVN/Git/etc repo...), but you don't need Sencha Cmd to build a Sencha application.
When I try to generate an ExtJS app with my trial installation it fails. It worked in the beginning. Here is what I get:
sencha generate app -ext sampleName F:\vs13\sampleName
Sencha Cmd v5.1.0.26
[INF] Loading framework from F:/../../../../../ext
[ERR] Invalid Path : F:\..\..\..\..\..\ext
Since it is a trial version it should automatically download the framework.
This will automatically download the Ext JS Commercial Trial package and use it to generate your application.
According to the documentation this is the syntax:
sencha generate app -ext MyApp /path/to/MyApp
Also I checked the path variable which includes the path to the Sencha Cmd installation:
PATH=F:\ExtJs\bin\Sencha\Cmd\5.1.0.26;
I tried to restart the development machine. It did not help.
Any suggestion to solve the error "Invalid Path"?
Did you move Sencha Cmd installation? That could be the reason because Ext library is downloaded only for the first application you create and it is cached in the Cmd installation tree. Next applications you create use this cached Ext. If you moved Cmd then it cannot find path to the cached Ext.
You can also try to uninstall Sencha Cmd and install it again.
I am able to wrap sencha APP in window Phone 8 if using UIView Control or PhonegapView and accessing app over localhost.
But not able to package app when putting all pages in www folder (Tried with phonegap also).
Other Non Sencha web APP works fine.
I have searched on forum . Many people are facing same issue.
Can any one post a successful solution?
I am using latest Sencha touch 2.3.1
I am getting that first sencha need to be packaged and then it could be put in www folder.
But i am not able to get the correct packaging required which can work.
I had a similar problem; instead of using the package files, I used the command:
sencha app build native
and I used the app.js and app.json files generated that were created in the path
build/native/<YOUR_APP>
