MobileFirst 8.0 view browser version of app on a remote server?


I have my mobile app and a webversion in the console. In 7.1 you could just click a url and see the web version of the app. IBM removed this link in 8.0. So how do I see my browser version on a remote server now?

The IBM docs have you using node.js to do it by modding the server.xml file but that is just silly for non-devs to use. How would a tester access this from a url? So I am looking for www.myurl.com:443/[my app name and index page maybe?]


Solution

  • You can add the browser platform to your Cordova project and host it in the same server as MobileFirst. See https://mobilefirstplatform.ibmcloud.com/blog/2017/09/07/cordova-browser-compatibility-with-MFP/
