Architect + Sencha Cmd

Super! Glad to hear.

Sencha Architect doens't see files (models, view, controlers) generated by SenchaCMD.

Hello! I am trying to integrate the latest versions of Sencha architect and Sencha Cmd (downloaded today).
I followed all steps perfectly indicated in this Post

..but I have some errors..


a) I make a new sencha touch 2.2.x project with Sencha Architect (SA)
b) I execute "sencha generate app <projectName> path/to/project" and I get this error:
C:

[ERR] MERGE CONFLICT - /xxx/app/app.js[ERR] Please resolve manually - see /xxx/xxx/app/app.js

I think that is not a complicated error, I solved it, generating (with sencha cmd) other new app,and later merged the new app.js file with existing app.js of the SA project. Is it ok?


c) I generated models, controllers, views,etc using sencha cmd correctly,


d) I open again the SA project but I don't see the new files (controllers, models, views) generated. Did I forget execute some command?


My aim is use sencha cmd to generate MVC automatic code, and edit it with SA to add UI components, fields, controls, etc...
Is it possible?


Best Regards,


Eduardo

This is easy to solve, simply open project in Architect and perform a save.

It's not possible to add stores, views, models, controllers using Cmd and have them show up in Architect. Architect works from metadata and generates javascript. Cmd simply generates javascript. There has been some preliminary work to support models generated w/ Cmd where Cmd also generates Architect metadata if it detects it's working with an Architect project.

For now you'll have to Drag out controllers, stores, models, etc ... from the Architect toolbox and configure them inside Architect. Remember the benefits here are many, including validation, framework upgrades e.g. 4.1 -> 4.2, event/function signatures, etc...

There are some that generate their controllers using Cmd and edit them using a text editor. They simply include those as js resources in the project. It's certainly not the intended workflow but if it works for them it might work for others.

Hi,

Architect: 2.2.2
Sencha CMD: 3.1.2.342

I think there is something wrong with my folder structure, because everytime I run Sencha Cmd inside my project's folder I have the following output:

[ERR] null

I've tried running sencha command on another project's folder and it runs fine, the problem is just with one project in particular. Any suggestions?

Reached out to a Cmd engineer to see if we can discover what this is caused by.

Phil,

I deleted the folder

• .sencha

and the files

• app.json
• bootstrap.css
• bootstrap.js
• build.xml
• index.html

ran the "sencha generate app" command again and it worked.

[Phil.Strong]

Ok glad it's working now. Cmd engineer responded:

Seems like it failed to find a package it needed. There should be a message about which one, but that part of the CLI output didn't get pasted into the post.

Glad we're in working state now!

I noticed that sometimes the code generated by Sencha Architect isn't compatible with Sencha Cmd. If I build for the "testing" environment, I can see the error " [Ext.createByAlias] Cannot create an instance of unrecognized alias".

If I change the app.js file, adding the Ext.require to the classes that createByAlias complains, then it works.

I need to do that with Charts, for example.

Ext.require('Ext.chart.*');

Is there any config in the Architect to make this requires?
