Launching Ionic app from external link, url capturing and redirect

Howdy guys,

I'm continuing my ionic series. Today let's talk about the following scenario:

Scenario: You have two web-apps: one for desktops and another (ionic) for mobiles. Both of them can send email notifications with some link, for example to verify email. Desktop and ionic urls are slightly different, but convertable from one to another. You always receive a desktop version of link to your email.

Task: When user clicks on that link from android device, we need to be able to open it in ionic app. In addition to that, ionic app should be able to parse that link and redirect to proper view.

ionic - auto install plugins on platform build

Hi there,

Today I will start my short series of posts about ionic, mobile framework for Android and iOS. Don't ask me how is it related to Python. I just needed to do some work for mobile.

One common task, that you need to do with ionic is to build your platform and install plugins. Let's choose Android as our platform.

To build android platform and install plugins you need to run commands like this:

cordova plugin add someplugin1
cordova plugin add someplugin2
ionic build android
