But when I am building this app for android, It stucks at the screen "Connect to moodle" . Inspite of giving the correct url of my moodle website the app halts at this screen only.
Please find a screenshot of the issue in the attachments below.
Thanks and Regards
Hello,
in a private message you said that the error thrown is "ReferenceError: Connection is not defined". This means that you haven't installed the plugin cordova-plugin-network-information. If you run the app using Ionic/Cordova CLI you need to install all the plugins and platforms. You can do so running "ionic state restore". Please follow the steps detailed in here:

Hello Akshay,
sorry for the delay in answering.
All the files inside the build folder are generated when you run gulp or ionic serve, so you shouldn't modify them. You should apply your styles to a SCSS in the core or addons folder. If the styles apply only to a certain addon, we recommend putting them in the SCSS of that addon inside the addons folder. For example, www/addons/mod/assign/scss/style.scss. If the styles are more generic you can put them in www/core/scss/styles.scss.
For the default site, you should edit the file www/config.json and put your Moodle URL in the siteurl field. You have more info in this page.
Hi David,
this error is shown in an Android/iOS device, right?
If so, you should check that the plugin has been installed in the android/ios platform (the one you're using) as it should.
In Android, go to platforms/android/src/org/apache/cordova and check there is a networkinformation folder.
In iOS, go to platforms/ios/www/plugins and check there is a cordova-plugin-network-information folder.
Kind regards,
Dani
Hi David,
the Cordova plugins are for Android and iOS. It's normal to see this error in Chrome browser since it doesn't support the Cordova plugins (we mocked up some of them in www/core/components/emulator, but the network plugin wasn't one of them because we can use other tools to detect it).
So you can ignore this error in browser or desktop, it shouldn't break anything.
Kind regards,
Dani
Hi,
It seems something on Chrome and Chromium has changed in the recert releases and it's breaking the API. There are many workarrounds to solve that while we find and integrate a final solution:
1. Declare Connection object. In any part of the code just add (I recommend in the main app.js):
window.Connection = {
UNKNOWN: 'unknown',
ETHERNET: 'ethernet',
WIFI: 'wifi',
CELL_2G: '2g',
CELL_3G: '3g',
CELL_4G: '4g',
CELL: 'cellular',
NONE: 'none'
};2. Downgrade your browser version.
Kind Regards,

Hi,
the PhoneGap build repository uses the file build/mm.bundle.js that includes all the Javascript file. You should apply the changes in that file (or copy the built file from your moodlemobile2 repository and apply it to the phonegap build one).
In any case, we already have a solution that will hopefully be integrated soon.
Kind regards,
Dani
