Usage

Install cordova into node_modules

npm install cordova

Add icons_and_splash.js

Copy icons_and_splash.js into the .cordova/hooks/after_prepare directory.

It also needs to be executable: chmod +x .cordova/hooks/after_prepare/icons_and_splash.js

Add this to your config.xml

<icon src="res/icons/" />

Add these files to your www directory

@unexist Thanks, I updated the typo.

My reasoning for using throw was that the user would report the error and we can add in support for more platforms as that happens.

LinusU commented Dec 31, 2013

@numediaweb To put it in the platforms/android/res/drawable* folders is the only thing that actually works, but that is bad since the platform folder is supposed to be generated and not checked in into git (or svn or whatever).

This script enables you to have your icons inside the www folder instead, as the manual says in the top.

@mytharcher

The image path placeholder in convert command could be changed to $1, and then the usage could be:

$ sh convert.sh my-icon.png

I think this would be more flexiable so that no hard code in the script.

I suppose it's because I am missing some cordova utils. What do I need to install?

@niiamon

niiamon commented Feb 25, 2014

I got this fixed by running:

npm install cordova in the root of my project folder.

However I still have other problems when I run cordova build ios:

throw new Error('Platform and density not supported: ' + platform + ', ' +

I'm at a loss what this means. It appears the script expect the ios icons to have density information in the tags in the config.xml. Not too sure what that means.

@niiamon

niiamon commented Feb 25, 2014

I fixed this. I had copied and pasted some directives into the config.xml from some other place and that was messing things up. But now splash screens do not work at all. I don't see the script trying to copy it.

@niiamon
Copy link

niiamon commented Feb 25, 2014

I finally fixed my problem. It appears that the script is looking for a gap:splash tag within config.xml as the following lines from icons_and_splash.js shows:

projectConfig.doc.findall('*').filter(function (node) {
return (node.tag == 'gap:splash');
}).map(function (node) {
copyAsset ('splash', node);
});

However, @LinusU recommended that we have this in the config.xml:

<gap:platform gap:platform="ios" src="res/splash/ios/screen-iphone-portrait.png" />

Obviously the script would fail to find the splash because there's a mismatch between what it expects the tag to be and what the tag actually is.

The simple solution I used was to instead use this tag within the config.xml file:

<gap:splash gap:platform="ios" src="res/splash/ios/screen-ipad-portrait.png" />

Combining that with the properly named files, I was able to get splash screens also working correctly.

config_parser has been removed in this commit: apache/cordova-cli@45e80ac#diff-34a6d62af0cf0b784f8444529f3130ef

replace

var projectConfig = new cordova_util.config_parser(projectXml);

with

var ConfigParser = cordova_util.config_parser
if(undefined === ConfigParser) {
    ConfigParser = require('cordova/src/ConfigParser');

I am trying to figure out why this happens. The files are copied successfully and I can confirm that by looking at the icons in the platform folders. They are what you would expect.

The only way I have gotten it to work properly is to change all the throws to console.log to enable to code to fail silently. Any way to fix this?

@niiamon The script can't find the file, so it throws that error.
To make it work, I added these 2 lines on line 132 and 133:

srcPath = projectRoot + '/www/' + srcPath;
dstPath = projectRoot + '/' + dstPath;

Just above - console.log ('copying from '+srcPath+' to the '+dstPath); - where it outputs which file is being copied.
Note: I used the version of @hartman

The best way to fix relative path issue in the script is:

  1. Include path module after line 10 var path = require('path'); (after fs declaration)
  2. Fix srcPath in line 98 var srcPath = path.join(projectRoot, 'www', node.attrib.src);
  3. Fix dstPath in line 106 var dstPath = path.join(projectRoot, 'platforms', platform, assetDir, fileName);

For ubuntu, instead of mkdir android you can use mkdir -p android to suppress the annoying message when the directory is already present.

I ran into some issues with Cordova 3.5.0.

Cordova was refactored in this commit: apache/cordova-cli@b51e1c1

Therefore, some changes are required to get this to run under the latest version.

First, in addition to having cordova installed at the root of your project, also install:

npm install cordova-lib

Then, change:

var cordova_util = require('cordova/src/util');

to

var cordova_util = require('cordova-lib/src/cordova/util');

Also, make this change - https://gist.github.com/LinusU/7515016#comment-1195042 - for ConfigParser.

Then change:

ConfigParser = require('cordova/src/ConfigParser');

to

ConfigParser = require('cordova-lib/src/cordova/ConfigParser');

I've forked the gist and included the updates from @hartman and @Takeno plus the revisions needed for Cordova 3.5.0.

Updated version here: https://gist.github.com/shedd/2bcbecec53ee8cddebfe

If anyone is looking for a conversion script that handles splash screens, I found this option: https://github.com/tlvince/phonegap-icon-splash-generator

I ended up taking bits and pieces of the two scripts and hooking them both into my build process.

For cordoba-lib version ~> 0.21.4, you should change this line:

CordovaConfigParser = require('cordova-lib/src/cordova/configparser');

for this one:

CordovaConfigParser = require('cordova-lib').configparser;
