Host URL for private api in a hybrid application

ionic-v1
1

want to use a javascript private API in our hybrid mobile application. The API uses Host name and 10 digit key to verify the account.

Account{
    "host":"sample.example.com",
"key":"1234567890",
}

The problem is, my hybrid mobile application doesnot use any host but runs in the url "file:///android_asset/www/index.html"

Please let me know that is there any workaround to solve this issue?

Maybe Im totally ignorant here but can you not just run the applicaiton through localhost with $ ionic serve

Why are you serving the entire host name predefined? Your app should resolve the path by itself. Since file:///android_asset/www is your main asset folder, using a different path as host (just a slash for instance) would resolve to the path your seeking for. This should work in your browser as well as on mobile.
