• Hello everybody,

    I just want to know if it's possible to make a vtour as an offline WebApp??

    I've found some stuff about the CACHE MANIFEST but nothing about offline Webapp for Krpano....

    Thanks

  • Hi,

    I have not tested it by myself but I have heard that should be possible by doing that:
    1. get the Goodreader App from the Apple Store
    2. make your tour normally
    3. pack the tour into a zip file
    4. upload the zip file with itunes or via http/ftp to the Goodreader App
    5. start and unpack the zip in Goodreader and watch/open the html

    best regards,
    Klaus

  • Yes this method word very well.

    But making the tour as a webapp allow to don't buy "goodreader" and acces directly to your krpano tour throught the springboard with a custum icon...

  • hi guys;-)
    I'm late on this post but it's impossible to get krpano work offline cause of the license...
    In fact krpano needs web connect to check it.
    That's a real pb here for web apps !
    Cause even if you compile it with objective C, the app will need web access...
    I'm very upset with this and will be force to use another pano viewer for web apps:-(
    Or maybe Klaus has a good news in this special case^^
    I'll post a tuto for using krpano in web app if someones are interested:
    -making a web app with jquery
    - using it offline with the cache manifest and mobile db
    - desactivate Ajax for script loading...
    Hopping that krpano could work offline somedays... *thumbsup*

    This is not true.

    I have around 2 GB offline panos in Goodreader.
    Works perfect.

    I have now also got the manifest files to work with KRPano but I do not consider that a good option as the Safari cache is not very large and even if it asks for more place you can not have a large tour in it.

  • Hi again ^^
    Sorry again for the mess up *unsure*
    For the cache manifest of web app the limit is fixed at 5Mo, but can be extended to 25Mo.
    I know it's not perfect, but it makes possible to show small demo tour offline ^^
    Next step is to publish it on the apple store...
    Do you've heard about Phonegap ?
    It's an Objective C web app warper, it encapsulate your web app into a real application.
    So then there's no size limit as it is stored in the device itself ^^
    I'll post a tuto about all this when I get time ^^
    See you soon and sorry again for the error about license Klaus ;)

  • It doesn't work for me, is there something missing from the manifest file?
    i have other sites caching but krPano is not. just a 2.3MB image. Any ideas please?

  • Hello!
    May be i'm not understand right but here is more info
    iPad localy (offline) krpano testing
    just tap your html file and all works. (with encripted license)

    there are free app's
    and no size limitation (as i know *rolleyes* )

    Easy to use, and free.

  • hi all,

    i managed to build a virtual tour webapp that works offline with cache manifest.

    the one thing that i couldn't have to work is the video plugin, it seems that even if the m4v video is in the cache, the videoplayer.js isn't able to read it.

    krpano throws an error in the console, no access to the file.

    anyone experienced this?

    Regards
