Upgrading Kapsel Applications

Follow these steps to upgrade your Kapsel plugins to use Cordova 3.1.

1. To determine which version of Cordova the project was created with, navigate to the directory that contains your Cordova project and enter:
   cordova platform
   For example:

   C:\Kapsel_Projects\StorageDemo>cordova platform

   You see something similar to:

   Installed platforms: android 3.0.9

   This example shows that Cordova 3.0.9 is installed for the Android platform.
2. Determine which version of the Cordova command line interface is installed by entering:
   cordova -v
3. See if there is a newer version of Cordova by entering:
   npm info cordova
   You see output similar to this:

   npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/cordova
   npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/cordova
   
   { name: 'cordova',
     description: 'Cordova command line interface tool',
     'dist-tags': { latest: '3.1.0-0.2.0' },
     versions:
      [ '0.0.1',
        '0.0.2',
   ...
       '3.0.6',
       '3.0.7',    
       '3.0.8',
       '3.0.9',
       '3.0.10',
       '3.1.0-0.1.0',
       '3.1.0-0.2.0' ], 

4. Upgrade to the specified Cordova version by entering:
   On Windows: npm install -g cordova@<current_cordova_version>-<upgrade_cordova_version>
   On Mac: sudo npm install -g cordova@<current_cordova_version>-<upgrade_cordova_version>
   For example, on Windows, to upgrade from Cordova 3.1.0 to version 0.2.0, enter:
   npm install -g cordova@3.1.0-0.2.0
5. Upgrade the Cordova project by entering:
   For Android cordova -d platform update android

   For iOS cordova -d platform update ios

   The -d flag indicates debug output and is optional.

   See http://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/3.1.0/guide_platforms_android_upgrading.md.html#Upgrading%20Android for Android and http://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/3.1.0/guide_platforms_ios_upgrading.md.html#Upgrading%20iOS for iOS for more information.
6. To see what plugins you have installed, navigate to the Kapsel project folder, and enter:
   cordova plugins
   You see a list of the plugins included with the application, for example:

    ['com.sap.mp.cordova.plugins.appupdate',    
   'com.sap.mp.cordova.plugins.authproxy',    
   'com.sap.mp.cordova.plugins.corelibs',    
   'com.sap.mp.cordova.plugins.encryptedstorage',    
   'com.sap.mp.cordova.plugins.i18n',    
   'com.sap.mp.cordova.plugins.logger',    
   'com.sap.mp.cordova.plugins.logon',    
   'com.sap.mp.cordova.plugins.push',    
   'com.sap.mp.cordova.plugins.settings',    
   'org.apache.cordova.console',    
   'org.apache.cordova.device',    
   'org.apache.cordova.device-orientation',    
   'org.apache.cordova.dialogs',    
   'org.apache.cordova.inappbrowser' ] 

   In the above example, you see that both Kapsel and Cordova Core plugins appear. This is because some of the Kapsel plugins rely on some of the Cordova Core APIs.
7. Uninstall each of the Kapsel plugins you have installed by entering:
   cordova plugin remove <plugin_id>
   Where <plugin_id> refers to the ID for the particular plugin. For example, to uninstall the Logon plugin, you would enter:
   cordova plugin remove com.sap.mp.cordova.plugins.logon
   Repeat this step for each Kapsel plugin, changing the plugin ID as needed, according to the plugin you are removing.

   Note: Since some of the Kapsel plugins depend on several of the Cordova plugins and those Cordova plugins may have been updated with each new release of Cordova, the dependent Cordova plugins must also be removed from the project before you reinstall the Kapsel plugins. Beginning with Cordova command line interface 3.1, dependent plugins should be removed when all plugins that rely upon them are removed, so when you complete these steps, both the Kapsel and associated, dependent Cordova Core API plugins should be removed from the project. However, testing has proven that this is not always the case. If, after removing all of the Kapsel plugins, you execute the cordova plugins command from a terminal window, you may see remnant plugins left in the project as shown in the example below.
8. Add the Kapsel plugins back to the project by entering:
   cordova plugin add <path_to_Kapsel_plugin>
   For example, to add the AppUpdate plugin, enter:

   On Windows:

   cordova -d plugin add <SDK_HOME>\MobileSDK3\KapselSDK\plugins\appupdate

   On Mac:

   cordova -d plugin add ~<SDK_HOME>/MobileSDK3/KapselSDK/plugins/appupdate

   Note: The path you enter to the Kapsel plugin must be the absolute path (not relative path).
9. Prepare the Cordova project by entering:

   cordova -d prepare android

   or

   cordova -d prepare ios

10. Upgrade the Kapsel command line interface by entering:
    SDK_HOME\MobileSDK3\KapselSDK\cli>npm uninstall -g kapsel
    SDK_HOME\MobileSDK3\KapselSDK\cli>npm install -g
