What is the proper way to duplicate an Ionic project with different Ionic IDs?












0















I have 2 Ionic apps that share the same codebase; the only thing different between the two apps are values set in the config.ts file, the images folder, and the unique Ionic app ID for each app.



My apps are registered with Ionic Pro, so when I update them I push them to Github, then push them to Ionic where they are compiled, after which I download as a package and submit to the app stores.



It’s basically like this



App Development Master (Ionic ID 123)
|- App 1 Production (Ionic ID 456)
|- App 2 Production (Ionic ID 789)


My current workflow: After I update the Development Master, I copy each changed file and paste it into the appropriate location in each Production app; this is tedious and prone to error.



So my question: can I just duplicate the Development Master for each Production app?



Basically: copy the folder which contains the Development Master and rename it with the name of the Production App. Then update config.ts and do a find/replace for that app's Ionic app ID, plus update what's inside .git.



Any downside to this?
