HMS Account Ionic Demo

Contents


1. Introduction

This demo application demonstrates the usage of HMS Account Kit Cordova plugin.


2. Installation Guide

Before you get started, you must register as a HUAWEI Developer and complete identity verification on the HUAWEI Developer website. For details, please refer to Register a HUAWEI ID.

2.1. Creating a Project in AppGallery Connect

Creating an app in AppGallery Connect is required in order to communicate with the Huawei services. To create an app, perform the following steps:

  1. Sign in to AppGallery Connect and select My projects.
  2. Select your project from the project list or create a new one by clicking the Add Project button.
  3. Go to Project Setting > General information, and click Add app. If an app exists in the project and you need to add a new one, expand the app selection area on the top of the page and click Add app.
  4. On the Add app page, enter the app information, and click OK.

2.2. Configuring the Signing Certificate Fingerprint and Obtaining agconnect-services.json

A signing certificate fingerprint is used to verify the authenticity of an app when it attempts to access an HMS Core (APK) through the HMS SDK. Before using the HMS Core (APK), you must locally generate a signing certificate fingerprint and configure it in the AppGallery Connect. You can refer to 3rd and 4th steps of Generating a Signing Certificate Codelab tutorial for the certificate generation. Perform the following steps after you have generated the certificate.

  1. Sign in to AppGallery Connect and select your project from My Projects. Then go to Project Setting > General information. In the App information field, click the icon next to SHA-256 certificate fingerprint, and enter the obtained SHA-256 certificate fingerprint.
  2. After completing the configuration, click OK to save the changes. (Check mark icon)
  3. In the same page, click agconnect-services.json button to download the configuration file.

2.3. Ionic

  1. Install Ionic CLI.

    npm install -g @ionic/cli cordova-res native-run
  2. Open the demo project root folder.

  3. Install project dependencies.

    npm install

2.3.1. With Cordova Runtime

  1. Enable the Cordova integration.

    ionic integrations enable cordova
  2. Update the widget id property which is specified in the config.xml file. It must be same with client > package_name value of the agconnect-services.json file.

                "alias": "<key_alias>",
                "password": "<key_password>"
            },
            "release": {
                "keystore": "<keystore_file>.jks",
                "storePassword": "<keystore_password>",
                "alias": "<key_alias>",
                "password": "<key_password>"
            }
        }
    }
  8. Build Ionic app to generate resource files.

  1. Enable the Capacitor integration.

    ionic integrations enable capacitor
  2. Initialize Capacitor.

    npx cap init [appName] [appId]
  3. Update the widget appId property which is specified in the capacitor.config.json file. It must be same with client > package_name value of the agconnect-services.json file.

  4. Install HMS Account Kit to the project.

    npm install @hmscore/cordova-plugin-hms-account
  5. Install HMS Account Ionic Native wrappers.

    npm install @ionic-native/core @hmscore/ionic-native-hms-account
  6. Build Ionic app to generate resource files.

    ionic build
  7. Add the Android platform to the project.

    npx cap add android
  8. Copy keystore(.jks) and agconnect-services.json files to <project_root>/android/app directory.

  9. Open the build.gradle file in the <project_root>/android/app directory.

    • Add signingConfigs entry to android according to your keystore information.
    • Enable signingConfig configuration to debug and release flavors.
    • Apply com.huawei.agconnect plugin.
    ...
    
    android {
    
        ...
    
        // Add signingConfigs according to your keystore information
        signingConfigs {
            config {
                storeFile file('<keystore_file>.jks')
                storePassword '<keystore_password>'
                keyAlias '<key_alias>'
                keyPassword '<key_password>'
            }
        }
        buildTypes {
            debug {
                signingConfig signingConfigs.config // Enable signingConfig in debug flavor
            }
            release {
                signingConfig signingConfigs.config // Enable signingConfig in release flavor

3. Configuration and Description

Configuring Obfuscation Scripts

Before building the APK, configure the obfuscation configuration file to prevent the HMS Core SDK from being obfuscated.

NOTE: This step is required only if you want to minify and obfuscate your app. By default obfuscation is disabled in Cordova and Ionic apps.

The obfuscation is done by ProGuard. By default, in Cordova and Ionic apps ProGuard is disabled. Even though ProGuard is not available, ProGuard support can be added through 3rd party ProGuard plugins. If ProGuard is enabled in your project, the Huawei Cordova Account plugin's ProGuard rules need to be added to your project. These rules are as follows:

-ignorewarnings
-keepattributes *Annotation*
-keepattributes Exceptions
-keepattributes InnerClasses
-keepattributes Signature
-keepattributes SourceFile,LineNumberTable
-keep class com.huawei.hianalytics.**{*;}
-keep class com.huawei.updatesdk.**{*;}
-keep class com.huawei.hms.**{*;}
