25 PhoneGap Build Process
PHONEGAP API'S 26
27 — Accelerometer — Camera — Compass (excl. iPhone 3/3G,
BlackBerry OS 5+ and Symbian) — Contacts (excl. WebOS) — File (excl. WebOS, Symbian, Bada) — Geolocation — Media (excl. BlackBerry OS 5+, WebOS, Symbian, Bada) — Network — Notification — Storage (excl. Bada)
28
29 API call example `navigator' is a global namespace for
all API calls
HELLO WORLD 30
Including cordova.js
32 Adding listener on "deviceready"event
33 showAlert(); will display a native notification
34 Show notification as soon as device is ready
PLUGINS 35
36
37 HelloWorld.js
38 PhoneGap Bridge exec call
39 PhoneGap Bridge exec call Cordova.exec bridge CDV-HelloWorld.js
40 CLI for plugin boilerplate
41 CLI for plugin boilerplate
42 iOS native code #import <Cordova/CDVPlugin.h> @interface HelloWorld : CDVPlugin
@end #import "HelloWorld.h" @implementation HelloWorld @end HelloWorld.h HelloWorld.m Inheritance
43 Adding methods #import <Cordova/CDVPlugin.h> @interface HelloWorld : CDVPlugin -
(void)add:(CDVInvokedUrlCommand*)command; @end #import "HelloWorld.h" @implementation HelloWorld - (void)add:(CDVInvokedUrlCommand*)command { } @end HelloWorld.h HelloWorld.m Instance method Instance method
44 Retrieving arguments #import "HelloWorld.h" @implementation HelloWorld - (void)add:(CDVInvokedUrlCommand*)command {
double a = [[command.arguments objectAtIndex:0] doubleValue]; double b = [[command.arguments objectAtIndex:1] doubleValue]; double result = a + b; } @end HelloWorld.m Retrieve arguments; Addition.
45 Sending the result #import "HelloWorld.h" @implementation HelloWorld - (void)add:(CDVInvokedUrlCommand*)command
{ double a = [[command.arguments objectAtIndex:0] doubleValue]; double b = [[command.arguments objectAtIndex:1] doubleValue]; double result = a + b; CDVPluginResult* pluginResult = [CDVPluginResult resultWithStatus:CDVCommandStatus_OK messageAsDouble:result]; [self writeJavascript: [pluginResult toSuccessCallbackString:command.callbackId]]; } @end HelloWorld.m Send result back
46 Adding plugin mapping to Cordova.plist
47 Calling our plugin from JS
CONS & LIMITATIONS 48
— Fast changing inconsistent API — Lacks and inaccuracies in
documentation — Some device specific API's are still unavailable for some OS — Dealing with cross-platform web development issues 49
PHONEGAP BUILD 50
51 PhoneGap Build is a cloud based service built on
the top of PhoneGap framework.
— PhoneGap Build is a cloud service — PhoneGap Build
API can help in establishing CI — No need to have different environment OS and SDK's to build an application 52 PhoneGap Build Pros
THE FUTURE IS CLOSER THAN YOU THINK 53
Some API's are already accessible 54
55 Device Specific API's accessibility: Accelerometer
Device Specific API's accessibility: File API (incl. camera uploads)
Average support is ~70%
