Template

{
  "package_id": "com.example.myapp",
  "edition": "202601",
  "name": "My App",
  "version": "0.1.0",
  "min_app_version": "2.0.0",
  "min_sdk_version": "0.0.12",
  "entrypoint": "index.html",
  "permissions": [],
  "supported_languages": ["en"]
}

Permissions Format

Permissions is an array of objects. Each object requires:

• name (string, required) — permission identifier
• desc (string, required) — description, 1-300 characters
• whitelist (string[]) — only valid for the network permission

Valid permission names: network, location, g2-microphone, phone-microphone, album, camera

Common mistake: permissions must be an array of objects, NOT a key-value map.

// Correct
"permissions": [
  { "name": "network", "desc": "Access the internet", "whitelist": ["https://api.example.com"] },
  { "name": "location", "desc": "Access device location" }
]

// Wrong — do NOT use a map/object
"permissions": {
  "network": "Access the internet"
}

Troubleshooting (evenhub pack)

Error	Fix
Invalid package id	Lowercase reverse-domain, min 2 segments, no hyphens, no uppercase, no leading numbers
name: must be 20 characters or fewer	Shorten app name
version: must be in x.y.z format	Use three-part semver
min_app_version/min_sdk_version: expected string, received undefined	Both fields are required — add them to app.json
permissions: each permission must be an object	Use array of objects with name + desc fields
supported_languages: invalid language	Use lowercase ISO codes from the supported set
Entrypoint file not found	Ensure the file exists in the build folder
Project folder not found	Run npm run build first
