cordova-plugin-dialogs
This plugin provides access to some native dialog UI elements
via a global navigator.notification
object.
Although the object is attached to the global scoped navigator
, it is not available until after the deviceready
event.
document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
function onDeviceReady() {
console.log(navigator.notification);
}
Installation
cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-dialogs
Methods
navigator.notification.alert
navigator.notification.confirm
navigator.notification.prompt

navigator.notification.alert

function, which is typically less customizable.

message: Dialog message. (String)
alertCallback: Callback to invoke when alert dialog is dismissed. (Function)
title: Dialog title. (String) (Optional, defaults to
Alert
)buttonName: Button name. (String) (Optional, defaults to
OK
)
Example
function alertDismissed() {
// do something
}
navigator.notification.alert(
'You are the winner!', // message
alertDismissed, // callback

function onConfirm(buttonIndex) {
alert('You selected button ' + buttonIndex);
