Deploy Hybrid App on SAP HANA Cloud Platform Mobile Services (HCPMS)

Prerequisite: SAP Web IDE Hybrid App Toolkit  installation procedure

2.1 Create the application in SAP Hana Cloud Platform Mobile Services

In this section, you will create an application in HCPMS. This step is similar to the creation of a Destination in HCP, and allows your HCPMS instance know how to handle incoming application requests (registration, authentication and data).

• Log on to your HCP cockpit  account
• In the menu item of HCP cockpit, select the Services tab and in Mobile Services group click on the Development & Operations tile.
• Click on the Go to Service link to launch the Development & Operations Cockpit application
• The Mobile Services Cockpit will be displayed, click on the Applications tile

• Click on the Create Application icon to add a new application definition. Edit the fields as shown below and click Save.

1. Application ID: com.odata.hybrid (Note: must be the same as in Device Configuration in later step)
2. Version: 1.0 (default)
3. Name: Test
4. Type: Hybrid (from drop-down)
5. Description: Hybrid OData app
6. Vendor: SAP
7. Security Configuration: None (from drop-down)

• Click on the Backend tab, Fill in the connection information as shown below and click Save

1. Backend URL: https://sapes4.sapdevcenter.com/sap/opu/odata/IWBEP/GWSAMPLE_BASIC/
2. Proxy Type: Internet (from drop-down)
3. Authentication Type: Basic Authentication (from drop-down), give the username and password given to the Destination
4. Maximum Connections: 500
5. Alias: (leave blank)
6. Rewrite mode: Rewrite URL on HCPms (from drop-down)
7. Relative Paths: (leave blank)

• Click on save
• You have successfully created the application in HCPms. Click on the Home icon (in the upper left corner of window) to return to the Mobile Services Cockpit
• We can observe that the application and connection numbers have incremented

2.2 Device configuration in SAP Web IDE

• Open SAP Web IDE. Access the Project Settings of the Test Project that was created in the previous tutorial by right-clicking, select Project Settings
• Select Device Configuration setting in the Project Settings window
• Fill the below-mentioned information in the Application section

1. App Name : Test
2. App ID : com.odata.hybrid  (NOTE: The App ID field here must match the string you entered for “Application ID” when creating the HCPms application(above))
3. Description : hybrid version of OData web app
4. Version : 1.0.0
5. In the Build Options section, click the radio button for Release Mode
6. In the Platforms section, select the options applicable for your development machine: · Windows: Android       · Mac OS: Android and/or iOS
7. In the Plugins section, you specify the plugins the application will use. For this exercise, do not check any of the standard Cordova plugins. Click the “Kapsel” tab, and select the Logon Manager. After selecting Logon Manager, click the radio button next to “HANA Cloud Platform mobile services” and ensure your HCPms Host URL is correct
8. Leave the Preferences section unchanged and click Save

2.3 Start the Hybrid App Toolkit Connector

Now we will start the Hybrid App Toolkit Connector and test the communication between it and SAP Web IDE. You must have completed the download and installation process for the Hybrid App Toolkit before starting this section

• Open a Terminal or command window and navigate to the HAT directory  ·  On Windows, double-click run.cmd  ·  On Mac, type:“./run.sh”

• To test the connection between HAT and your Web IDE instance, select the Web IDE menu option: Tools -> Preferences
• Select Hybrid Application Toolkit.
