tns deploy

Description

Prepares, builds and deploys the project to a connected device or native emulator. <% if(isMacOS) { %>You must specify the target platform on which you want to deploy.<% } %> It will deploy the app on all connected devices targeting the selected platform.

<% if(isMacOS) { %> <% if(isHtml) { %>> <% } %>IMPORTANT: Before building for iOS device, verify that you have configured a valid pair of certificate and provisioning profile on your macOS system. <% if(isHtml) { %>For more information, see the Code Signing and Maintain Signing Assets sections from the Apple Developer documentation.<% } %>

Commands

Usage Synopsis
Deploy on Android $ tns deploy android [--device <Device ID>] [--key-store-path <File Path> --key-store-password <Password> --key-store-alias <Name> --key-store-alias-password <Password>] [--release] [--aab]
<% if(isMacOS) { %>Deploy on iOS $ tns deploy ios [--device <Device ID>] [--release]<% } %>

Options for iOS

  • --device - Deploys the project on the specified connected physical or virtual device. <Device ID> is the index or name of the target device as listed by the $ tns devices command.
  • --release - If set, produces a release build. Otherwise, produces a debug build.<% } %>

Options<% if(isMacOS) { %> for Android<% } %>

  • --device - Deploys the project on the specified connected physical or virtual device. <Device ID> is the index or name of the target device as listed by the $ tns devices command.
  • --clean - If set, forces the complete rebuild of the native application.
  • --release - If set, produces a release build. Otherwise, produces a debug build. When set, you must also specify the --key-store-* options.
  • --key-store-path - Specifies the file path to the keystore file (P12) which you want to use to code sign your APK. You can use the --key-store-* options along with --release to produce a signed release build. You need to specify all --key-store-* options.
  • --key-store-password - Provides the password for the keystore file specified with --key-store-path. You can use the --key-store-* options along with --release to produce a signed release build. You need to specify all --key-store-* options.
  • --key-store-alias - Provides the alias for the keystore file specified with --key-store-path. You can use the --key-store-* options along with --release to produce a signed release build. You need to specify all --key-store-* options.
  • --key-store-alias-password - Provides the password for the alias specified with --key-store-alias-password. You can use the --key-store-* options along with --release to produce a signed release build. You need to specify all --key-store-* options.
  • --env.* - Specifies additional flags that the bundler may process. Can be passed multiple times. Supported additional flags:
    • --env.aot - creates Ahead-Of-Time build (Angular only).
    • --env.snapshot- creates a V8 Snapshot decreasing the app start time (only for release builds for Android).
    • --env.compileSnapshot- compiles the static assets produced by --env.snapshot into .so files allowing the native build to split them per architecture. This will reduce the app size when using the --aab option.
    • --env.uglify - provides basic obfuscation and smaller app size.
    • --env.report - creates a Webpack report inside a report folder in the root folder.
    • --env.sourceMap - creates inline source maps.
    • --env.hiddenSourceMap - creates sources maps in the root folder (useful for Crashlytics usage with bundled app in release).
  • --aab - Specifies that the command will produce and deploy an Android App Bundle.
  • --force - If set, skips the application compatibility checks and forces npm i to ensure all dependencies are installed. Otherwise, the command will check the application compatibility with the current CLI version and could fail requiring tns migrate.

Command Limitations

  • You can run $ tns deploy ios only on macOS systems.
  • When the --release flag is set for an Android build, you must also specify all --key-store-* options.
