Cordova Amazon Fire OS is an application library that allows for Cordova-based projects to be built for the Amazon Fire OS Platform. It uses Amazon's web app runtime that is built on open-source Chromium project. With the web app runtime, your web apps can achieve fluidity and speed approaching that of native apps.

Apache Cordova is a project at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF).

Requires

Cordova Amazon Fire OS Developer Tools

The Cordova developer tooling is split between general tooling and project level tooling.

General Commands

./bin/create [path package activity] ... create the ./example app or a cordova-amazon-fireos project
./bin/check_reqs ....................... checks that your environment is set up for cordova-amazon-fireos development
./bin/update [path] .................... updates an existing cordova-amazon-fireos project to the version of the framework

Project Commands

These commands live in a generated Cordova Amazon Fire OS project. Emulator support is currently not available.

./cordova/clean ........................ cleans the project
./cordova/build ........................ calls `clean` then compiles the project
./cordova/log   ........................ stream device logs to stdout
./cordova/run   ........................ calls `build` then deploys to a connected Amazon device. 
./cordova/version ...................... returns the cordova-amazon-fireos version of the current project

Importing a Cordova Amazon Fire OS Project into Eclipse

  1. File > New > Project...
  2. Android > Android Project
  3. Create project from existing source (point to the generated app found in platforms/amazon-fireos)
  4. Right click on libs/cordova.jar and add to build path 5 Right click on libs/awv_interface.jar and add to build path
  5. Right click on the project root: Run as > Run Configurations
  6. Click on the Target tab and select Manual (this way you can choose the device to build to)

Building without the Tooling

Note: The Developer Tools handle this. This is only to be done if the tooling fails, or if you are developing directly against the framework.

To create your cordova.jar file, run in the framework directory:

android update project -p . -t android-19
ant jar
