chenshuiluke / cortexdictionary

A dictionary app that uses multiple sources to retrieve the best definitions for you.

Running/Running

1. Run sudo npm install -g nativescript
2. cd into the repo directory and run npm install
3. After you install the nativescript CLI and all other basic requirements, like the Android Sdk, you'll need to configure your environment variables.

To do so, just create two files app/environment/environment.prod.ts and app/environment/environment.ts and give them both the following content:

export const environment = {
    oxford_api:{
		base_url: "https://od-api.oxforddictionaries.com/api/v1",
		app_id: "<app_id>",
		app_key: "<app_key>"
    },
    urban_dict_api:{
		base_url: "http://api.urbandictionary.com/v0/define"
    },
	word_api:{
		base_url: "https://wordsapiv1.p.mashape.com/words",
		app_id: "cortexdictionary_5a47e0a0e4b03dc727eee34d",
		app_key: "qjesu1R7WNmshQmu2eq4OPlN9QdSp14YSaUjsnO44eG5ARVbkr"
	},
	prod: true
	//Change this to false when not bundling with webpack
	//Change to true when bundling with webpack
}

Of course, you need to replace <app_id> and <app_key> with your own app id and key for the Oxford API.

4. After connecting your Android device/emulator to adb, run the app with tns run android --bundle --env.uglify --env.aot --env.snapshot
5. Build the app with tns build android --bundle --env.uglify --env.aot --env.snapshot
