Live Updates

Cordova Install Variables

• APP_ID Required - Your Ionic Pro app ID
• CHANNEL_NAME Required - The channel to check for updates from
• UPDATE_API - The location of the Ionic Pro API (only change this for development)
• UPDATE_METHOD - auto, background, or none. Dictates the behavior of the plugin. auto will download and apply the latest update on app start, potentially leading to long splash screen loads if the connection is slow. background will only download the update in the background on app start, but will allow full functionality while doing so, only redirecting users the next time the app is loaded. none will do nothing, leaving full plugin functionality in the hands of the developer. Default is auto
• MAX_VERSIONS - The maximum number of downloaded versions to store on the device for quick loading. More versions means less downloading, but can increase the app size greatly. Default is 3
