All of these commands require you to run npm install first. Add the --typecheck flag to generate type definitions (.d.ts) and do type checking, but keep in mind builds and rebuilds when watching will be significantly slower (~1min and ~1s respectively, vs ~20s and ~200ms without typechecking).

The latest nightly version can be installed via npm.

1. Run npm install --save ionic-angular@nightly
2. Your package.json file's dependencies will be updated with the nightly version.
3. Restart any watch or serve commands that may be already running.

Run gulp build or gulp watch to watch for changes.

1. Run gulp e2e or gulp e2e.watch with a folder passed to watch for changes.
2. Navigate to http://localhost:8080/dist/e2e

1. Run gulp demos or gulp demos.watch with a folder passed to watch for changes.
2. Navigate to http://localhost:80808080/dist/demos

1. gulp docs to build the nightly version
2. gulp docs --doc-version=2.0.0 to build a specific API version

From ionic directory:

1. gulp package build or (gulp package watch, then open another terminal for step 2)
2. cd dist
3. npm link (may require sudo)

From your app directory:

1. npm link ionic-angular
2. ionic serve or ionic run or ionic emulate

To remove the linked version of ionic-angular do npm rm ionic-angular, and then reinstall using npm install ionic-angular.

1. Install Protractor: npm install -g protractor@2.5.1
2. Run webdriver-manager update
3. Export IONIC_SNAPSHOT_KEY (get from someone)
4. Run gulp snapshot

1. gulp validate

Requires Ruby. Skip this step entirely if you are unable to install Ruby.

1. See the Sass Guidelines for editing the Sass.
2. Install the linter: gem install scss_lint
3. Run gulp lint.sass and fix any linter errors.

1. Run gulp lint.ts and fix any errors.

1. Run snapshot & verify all changes are intentional, update master snapshot if so
2. Run gulp release

• Pulls latest from GitHub
• Runs gulp validate
• Builds npm package files into dist
• Updates package.json version
• Removes debug statements
• Updates changelog
• Publishes to npm
• Creates a new tag and release on Github

3. Verify that the changelog changes are accurate and the package.json version is correct (git status && git diff)
4. Commit and push
5. Sit back and have a beer 🍻 (or wine 🍷)

1. Run gulp nightly

• Pulls latest from GitHub
• Runs gulp validate
• Builds npm package files into dist
• Removes debug statements
• Publishes to npm using the nightly tag with the date/time of publish added to the version: 2.0.0-rc.0 results in 2.0.0-rc.0-201610131811

2. npm install ionic-angular@nightly will now install the latest nightly release
3. Run npm view ionic-angular to see the latest nightly release

Ionic Component demos are automatically compiled and deployed to the ionic staging site on every commit in ionic-preview-app. No action is necessary.

If you'd like to manually update the demos, follow the steps on the preview app for running locally on the site.

Ionic API demos are automatically compiled and deployed to the ionic staging site on every commit. No action is necessary.

If you'd like to manually update the demos, clone the ionic-site repo as a sibling of ionic. From ionic run gulp demos and then gulp docs, and it'll compile and copy the demos to the ionic-site repo, ready for testing.
