Sencha CMD 3.0.0.230 - buildPaths not taken into account?

[snam]

Hi!

I'm using this configuration in my app.json:
"buildPaths": {
"testing": "build/testing",
"production": "build/production",
"package": "build/phonegap/www",
"native": "build/native"
},

And yet, the result of doing a "sencha app build package" goes into "build/MyApp/package".

Is that a known bug, or am I doing sth wrong?
Or should I update to the latest release?

Thanks

buildPaths in app.json will not be used and we will be removing it from app.json when you generate a new app.

You can change the paths in .sencha/app/build-impl.xml around line 170

Hey mitchellsimoens,

Could you expand a little on this please? I've found the section you're referring to but it's not obvious what I should be changing or adding.

I'm assuming there's no documentation for this?

Cheers

The value is the name of the directory

The value of what? Please be more specific as I'm not familiar with Ant config files. This is what I have currently:

    <!--
    Build
    -->
    <target name="-before-build"/>
    <target name="-build" depends="sass,page,run"/>
    <target name="-after-build"/>
    <target name="build"
            depends="init,-before-build,-build,-after-build"
            description="Builds the application"/>


    <!--
    environment setters
    -->


    <target name="production">
        <property name="args.environment" value="production"/>
    </target>


    <target name="testing">
        <property name="args.environment" value="testing"/>
    </target>


    <target name="native">
        <property name="args.environment" value="native"/>
    </target>


    <target name="package">
        <property name="args.environment" value="package"/>
    </target>

I'd really appreciate an answer on this, please.

Why is there still a section "buildPaths" in app.json, if there is no use for it? It makes me angry to waste my time.

to fix the behavior, u can edit ant/build.xml like explained here

[Malro]

edit the build.xml (sencha cmd) and copy the build output to any location u want

<target name="-after-build">
        <copy todir="../assets/www">
            <fileset dir="build/qwertz/production"/>
        </copy>
    </target>

I was wasting a lot of time to notice that buildPaths is not working

Hello,

I change build-impl.xml like this:

<!--
    environment setters
    -->

    <target name="ios">
        <property name="args.environment" value="ios/www"/>
    </target>
    -->

and run this command:

sencha app build ios

and I get this error :

Sencha Cmd v3.0.0.250
[ERR]		'ios' not in valid range: [native, package, testing, production]
[ERR]		Illegal value : ios

Can you please explain how to do this ?
Next step is a android target ( I use phonegap, that's why I need to build in different folder)

I have tested the solution of editing build-impl.xml, and it works. More details have been recorded in Sencha-touch and PhoneGap (Cordova) tutorial
Good luck.
