Can we deploy ionic 1 app using latest version? - ionic-framework

I am able to build ionic 1 app but it is not working fine. I am building my ionic 1 app with latest version of ionic. I don't know what is exact reason for this. Can you help me on this?.
Thanks in advance.

I'm guessing you are using the latest version of the ionic CLI and a project with ionic 1 library installed?
The latest ionic CLI works with ionic 1 javascript libraries.

How to create an Ionic v6 Project based on Angular

In versions of the Ionic framework, after Ionic v2, an Ionic v3 Angular project can be created by setting --type=ionic-angular e.g.
ionic start MyApp blank --type=ionic-angular
So even if Ionic v5 is installed the above command would create an Ionic v3 Angular project.
My question is how can I always create an Ionic v6 Angular project, even if I install the latest version of Ionic in 6 months time? E.g. When Ionic v7 is released will there be a way to create an Ionic v6 Angular project?
It will not change, it will stay the same as you posted.
You can force it by installing #ionic/angular version to current version in your package.json file.
However, Ionic is a very unstable framework even after 10 years. Every time there is a new release, old plugins completely get messed up. And you need to update plugins to stay in sync with iOS/Android updates. I have wasted so many hours every time there is a new Ionic or Capacitor release. The process is never straightforward.

which version is/are suitable for a production app for ionic CLI and Ionic framework?

As ionic 4 is released, I am wondering if I should start my new project in ionic 4 and ionic 4.9 (CLI) or any stable version you guys would suggest to prevent any issues ?
I think you can start your project with Ionic 4.0. With this final release, your app will perform better than version 3. Your doubt is good because there are still some bugs this is release but Ionic version 4.0 will allow you to update your application easily with the newer version. Ionic Framework team is working really hard for bug-free Ionic 4.0.

Can i run the ionic v1 project when i have ionic CLI 3.0.0

Now i have the latest version of ionic 3.0.0. My ionic version: 3.0.0.
And my ionic info:
global packages:
#ionic/cli-utils : 1.0.0
Ionic CLI : 3.0.0
System:
Node : v7.3.0
OS : macOS Sierra
Xcode : Xcode 8.3.2 Build version 8E2002
ios-deploy : 1.9.0
ios-sim : 5.0.13
Now i have two question in this. I searched , but not able to get the clear. If any one can answer. It will be helpful for many new bie like me.
So,
1.Now i have ionic 3.0.0. Then if i want to open the project in ionic v2. i will give ` ionic start newapp blank --v2 or (--ts_)'. And i will use some updated plugin having in ionic 3.0.0. Does it will work out. or i need to create a seperate project for ionic version 3 ??
Now i have old ionic 1 project that i am still working on. So once i update my ionic to3.0.0. Now what i done is :
ionic start newapp blank --v1 then i copied my old project www folder to this newapp and i replaced it.
My question is. Still can i use angular js1 to code for this project also. And while make ionic release means when i want to put it in my app store. Does any problem will occur. Because i have create this project as --v1.
If yes when i create a new project ionic start newapp blank --v1 its asking me Link this app to your Ionic Dashboard to use tools like Ionic View? y/N : what should i need to do
Please clarify me..thanks in advance
Using the ionic-cli version 3.0 you should be able to work on all versions of ionic projects.
The new cli will create an ionic v3 app by default. If you want to create an ionic v1 app, you need to add --v1. But if you are starting with a new app, I strongly recommend going for v2+.
Depending on the version your ionic app has, you need to add some additional plugins:
#ionic/cli-plugin-ionic-angular – Ionic Angular project plugin that provides useful build tools and generators. (ionic v2+)
#ionic/cli-plugin-ionic1 – Ionic 1 project plugin that has functionality ported from the old CLI.
#ionic/cli-plugin-cordova – Essential for an Ionic/Cordova app.
#ionic/cli-plugin-proxy – For proxying CLI requests through a firewall.
I can't tell you if you need to link your app to the dashboard. If you are using the Ionic services (Push, View, etc), then it makes sense.
That being said, I have experienced quite a few "bugs" or inconsistent behaviour with the new cli, so you might need to downgrade if something doesn't work.
I had this same worry when I updated my Ionic to v3 (CLI 3.1.2). They seem to really be pushing to use their cloud services (obviously, they want to start making some money on it).
When I tried the old v1 command:
ionic build ios
I received:
The build command has been renamed. To find out more, run:
ionic cordova build --help
So, then I tried
ionic covdova build ios
That failed with this:
ionic package build ios
[ERROR] Your project file (./ionic.config.json) does not contain 'app_id'. Run ionic link.
So, after looking around a bit, I used this command and it worked:
ionic cordova build ios --v1
It asked me to install a couple of things, then chugged out a new successful build. All good.
Please use following command as I had trouble with "--v1"
ionic start newapp blank --type=ionic1
As mentioned by #Samuel.
Add Ionic 1 CLI to the devDependency list. Open package.json file in the project directory and add the following line to devDependencies.
"#ionic/cli-framework": "^1.0.0-rc.2"
Example package.json:
Running ionic repair removed package.json and node_modules then, if prompted, run npm audit fix, and then you will be asked to Install #angular/cli?

ionic v2 error ionic view

I'm developing an ionic v2 app but even working on ionic lab it gets a complete white screen on the ionic view. If I do the same withe the ionic v1 it works.
ionic start sample --v2
cd sample
ionic lab
ionic upload
It shows white but
ionic start sample
cd sample
ionic lab
ionic upload
It works perfectly. No changes on the code at all
Thanks
ionic 2 needs at least 4.4 android to work, lost a lot of time on this and there is nothing on the ionic website informing about that. Writing down here to help anyone in the future.
Ionic v2 supports android 4.4 and up. The older browser on pre-4.4 devices do not have the features needed for ionic2 and angular 2 to work. Though this can be fixed with crosswalk.
The supported platforms are list here:
http://ionicframework.com/docs/overview/#browser-support
You can go back to 4.1 with crosswalk it states.
ionic 2 needs at least 4.4 android to work,.. for more info debug app in chrome.
from ionic 2 Ionic officially stops to use ionic lab.
You can run and test your app in browser using command "ionic serve".
Ionic2 app was initially created with --v2 flag but now they removed it . So nothing happens with --v2
Better way to solve the code 1st time by running directly into android devices by
Ionic cordova run android or
Ionic run android
Then connect your device with your system and open chrome and enter chrome://inspect to the url
Now you can console log the the error and can find the way of solutions.
Now try to run by ionic view
Remove the platform and then add it again.
please try eionic start sample --type=ionic-angular

How do I install a specific version of crosswalk using ionic cli2

I currently have an ionic 1 project, but have just switched to using ionic cli2. I previously used to add crosswalk into my project, by running the following command, as mentioned here.
ionic browser add crosswalk
However, ionic cli2 no longer supports the browser command, and I am unsure how to install it in the correct way.
Any help would be appreciated.
It seems the answer is as follows:
I need to run
ionic plugin add cordova-plugin-crosswalk-webview
