Set up development environment

Build the development app

  • comment in server section in capacitor.config.ts, and replace process.env.LOGSEQ_APP_ASERVER_URL with your http://your-local-ip-address:3001 (run ifconfig to check). 
    server: {
    url: "process.env.LOGSEQ_APP_ASERVER_URL",
    cleartext: true
    }
  • Working directory: Logseq root directory
  • Run yarn && yarn app-watch from the logseq project root directory in terminal.

  • Connect your iOS device to MacBook.
  • Run npx cap open ios to open Logseq project in Xcode, and build the app there.

or, you can run bb dev:ios-app to do those steps with one command if you are on MacOS. To download bb, see https://github.com/babashka/babashka#installation. Also, in order to use mobile bb tasks on macOS, gsed needs to be installed in your system (run brew install gnu-sed to install).

Note: if the dev build isn't reflecting the change of code, restart yarn app-watch and run npx cap sync ios again.
