How to install NewRelic Mobile in Appcelerator mobile app? - mobile

I am using NewRelic on our web based applications, and since they recently released a mobile version, we would like to incorporate it into our existing Appcelerator app. We commonly use Titanium Studious 3.0.2 for development.
We are using NewRelic iOS Agent 1.309 which essentially is NewRelicAgent.framework package for use in XCode 4.2+.
How do I set it up in the Appcelerator or Titanium Studios, so it would work with our existing application?
We got the framework via : https://marketplace.appcelerator.com/apps/1140?1691569151#overview
The way we usually do this is we need to copy the framework in User/Library/Application Support/titanium/ios/module-version/module-code ...
and add this to the app :
<modules>
<module version="0.1">nameOfYourModule</module>
</modules>
</ti:app>
How do we add this iOS framework to our app in a similar way?

They didn't actually release it yet. They more or less created a placeholder for it in the marketplace.
The module itself is being released later in the year from what I understand.

Is there any framework for building website and mobile app with same codebase?

I am looking for framework which will provide me website and app development with same codebase, rather than designing website and mobile app separately.
I came across phonegap and ionic frameworks, but they support multiple mobile platforms and not the website + multiple mobile platforms within a single codebase.
Is it really possible to achieve this? If so, then how?
Thanks in advance.
I use Materialize css library to create cordova app based on material design guidelines. Originally this project is created to make mobile first applications with a touch of Google material design so it will definitely suit both- web and android app.
Unlike ionic, it's just a simple css and js library which is well documented and easy to use and integrate in cordova app.
"Browser" is an ionic platform, like android and ios
You can do 'ionic cordova platform add browser' and 'ionic build browser'
But careful with some cordova plugins not being for browsers.
You can use NativeScript for building native apps with angular.

Wakanda mobile app development using Page Prototype

I am trying to develop a mobile app on Wakanda v11 starting with prototyping my page,test run it and try to build the prototyped page into an .apk file but all the system does is building the sample application in the mobile folder.
Any suggestion as how to proceed?
If you want to create a mobile app you must create it in the mobile folder in Wakanda Studio.
Today, there is no prototyping tool inside Wakanda to do a mobile app.
But you can use ionic creator to prototype your mobile app. When you have done that, you could integrate it in the Wakanda mobile folder.
There is a tutorial that can help you here : tutorial to create a first mobile app with Wakanda
If you want to create a native mobile application so you can generate the .apk, you should use Ionic/Cordova/Angular, by developing you application in the 'mobile' folder. you can follow the example set by default.
To access to database you can use the Angular/Wakanda connector : Docs
The prototype application cannot generate an .apk file

AEM6.1 mobile Apps

I needed some inputs on mobile apps.
Query: I have an existing web application on AEM(angularJS is not used). I want to transform the same on Mobile app using AEM6.1
While reading through the documentation section of AEM Apps, I found that the mobile App built on AEM
- works on the terminology and AngularJS framework.
- mobile App has different paths and app structure as compared to AEM web Applications
-since, phonegap has to be used, relative path needs to be different than the same of web application.
I am in a dilemma as If I would be able to convert my existing web app into a mobile App or not. If anyone of you has done some research on this, it would be very helpful.
Thanks in advance!!!

You can very well convert your AEM desktop application to a mobile app(site should be responsive).
AEM makes use of Cordova (PhoneGap) and ContentSync framework to create apps for both android and iOS. More about how to config ContentSync here. In simple terms, ContentSync packages your application(/content, /apps, /etc,...) based on defined set of configurations and cordova(phonegap) helps you access native phone capabilities and to create the archive file (apk/ipa). There is more than one way to create an app using AEM.
1. Using Cordova CLI :
You setup a cordova project in your filesystem. Then create contentsync configuration for your AEM project. Generate and download the application archive from here. Cordova project you had setup earlier will have the below folder structure.
Place the contents of archive file inside www folder, modify config.xml according your application and initiate build. Using this method, you will require an Apple system to generate .ipa file since it makes use of xcode and windows makes use of npm node js for the initial dev env setup.
2. Using OOTB 'Initiate phonegap build' workflow and AEM cloud config
This is an easy approach and does not require you to setup any cordova project in your system. All you have to do is setup contentsync configuration, add a few properties for the workflow to recognise your project and then trigger the workflow. Follow this.
3. Using Apps console in AEM 6.1
This also makes use of ContentSync underneath. Apps console makes the app very easy to maintain and configure, it also has inbuilt configurations for push notification, deep linking etc. Go through the info here. Refer to the sample geometrixx-outdoors project created in apps console, will help you understand better.
PS: Cordova and phonegap are the same. You can think of Cordova as Linux kernel and PhoneGap as linux distribution.

Are ADF Mobile Applications Actual Package Apps?

Looking at the example here: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E18941_01/tutorials/buildmobileappscontent/adfmobiletutorial_1.html
Would doing something like this end up creating a package app(like an APK on android), or a mobile application. If not, can I create a native(ish) app with Oracle ADF? And if so, can I easily create a mobile app from a pre-existing web ADF app?
No, you can't use a pre-existing web ADF app to create a mobile app.
You can however reuse parts of it, for example by exposing your model. It also uses the same concepts (like task flows) so the learning curve is low if you know ADF.
The end-result of your ADF Mobile application will be an .apk (Android) or .ipa (iOS) so yes, you get a native application.
Note: ADF Mobile is 'deprecated' (= will not get any updates/fixes). The product has been rebranded to MAF (Mobile Application Framework) and has lots of improvments compared to the version you are using.

clarification needed on phonegap vs sencha touch

Phonegap
allows access to native features, camera, address book, etc.
has no built-in UI elements, something else is needed for that (JQM for example)
(anything else?)
Phonegap build
allows cross-compiling of an app, it could be sencha, phonegap, etc.
Sencha Touch 2
has UI elements that display natively on each OS
has its own build that allows cross-compiling
can be supplemented with phonegap if access to native features if required?
Is all of this information correct? If not please clarify.
Phonegap (Cordova) essentially generates an app that uses a web browser internally to run a webapp. The webapp that it runs can be made however you wish to make it, with any number of frameworks.
Sencha Touch is just one of those frameworks that can be used. ST can also, however, be used to generate the native apps, but it will not allow as much access to native functionality as packaging your ST app into a Cordova app.
FWIW, it was made public last week that the new version of ST (2.3) will have easier integration with Cordova, allowing a Cordova build using the Sencha Cmd tool.
