Ionic browserify

ionic-v1
1

I’d like to use this npm module in my ionic app. Is there a way to use browserify with ionic?

2

Since browserify is synchronously, yeah it should work.

Check out this presentation about using browserify with angular
http://benclinkinbeard.com/talks/2014/ng-conf/#/12

And this SO question

I was also interested in using browserify along with ionic and I created an example project structure. This also uses gulp, sass, and napa for client dependency management. In case anyone finds it useful below is a link.

cmackay, I don’t see your usage of browserify. How are you using it?

5

The gulp file is using watchify which is part of browserify.

I’m trying to use browserify to use this node-module for sending vehicle OBD commands and receiving responses back from a vehicle ECU.

I used npm install serial-obd to install the node-module in my ionic application.

I then cd node_modules/serial-obd/lib

and run browserify obd.js -o ../../../checkin/factories/obd.js from the command line

I add the <script src="checkin/factories/obd.js"></script> to my index.html

But when I build from the command line ionic run android I get the following error;

Here you can find some useful gulp tasks:

And one of those is about browserify:
