Magnium is a Command Line Tool and Framework for building Titanium based mobile applications using ES6.

The Magnium Framework and associated CLI depends on an installed and working version of Axway's Appcelerator Titanium. You will need to ensure that the Titanium CLI is installed, visit Appcelerator for more information.

To test if the Titanium CLI is installed and working just type

ti --help

in a terminal.

[sudo] npm install -g magnium

Magnium provides a simple framework that allows Titanium projects to be written using ES6. It does this by using it's own custom project structure that is transpiled into a standard Titanium classic project that can then be run on simulator, device or compiled for distro using the Titanium CLI. Below is a quick overview of the steps to do this, all commands should be run in a Terminal.

NB: 08 Feb 2019: this has only been tested on a MAC currently and is just an overview of how to get a project up and running

• Open a Terminal and create a new directory (mkdir magnium)
• cd to that directory and initialise the magnium workspace (magnium-init)
• Create a new magnium project called helloworld (magnium-create --name helloworld)
• Use magnium to generate a standard Ttanium project (magnium-build --name helloworld)

The result of this should be a subdirectory named titanium that will have a complete project in. To test it just run the following Ti CLI command.

for iOS

ti build -p ios --log-level info -d titanium

for Android

ti build -p android --log-level info -d titanium --device-id

[adding --device-id allows you to select an emulator]

This should build and run the project in a simulator/emulator if all the other steps completed satisfactorily.
