MediaDrm Id Cordova Plugin

This plugin allows you to obtain the PROPERTY_DEVICE_UNIQUE_ID of the MediaDrm API in Android devices, which is a signed byte array returned as a string. This can be used to uniquely identify devices in Android +10 (and past versions too), where access to other non-resettable identifiers like the IMEI has been restricted.

The MediaDrm ID persists even after a factory reset.

Installation

Install the plugin with npm. If you're using Capacitor, make sure to do it in the directory where capacitor is installed, for example, src-capacitor in Quasar Framework.

npm i cordova-plugin-mediadrmid

Then, if you're using Capacitor, sync the plugin after installing it with the following command:

npx cap sync

Usage

The plugin adds a plugins property to the window object if it didn't exist before, and inside it adds a MediaDrmId property with a single method: get().

Get(): Returns a promise that resolves with a string containing the device's MediaDrm ID.

Call it using .then or await, for example:

// Using it with .then
document.addEventListener('deviceready', onDeviceReady, false);

function  onDeviceReady() {

	window.plugins.MediaDrmId.get().then(id => {
		console.log('YOUR DEVICE UNIQUE ID:')
		console.log(id)
		// "[-80, 62, 61, 117, -81, 88, 112, -43, 19, 17, 62, 111, 38, 93, -36, 121, -22, 3, 83, -89, -3, 105, -103, -43, -43, -39, -108, 49, 19, 117, -67, -118]"
	}).catch(e => {
		console.log(e)
	})
	
}

// Using it with await in Vue's onMounted hook
onMounted(async () => {
	const  id  =  await window.plugins.MediaDrmId.get()
	console.log('YOUR DEVICE UNIQUE ID:')
	console.log(id)
	// "[-80, 62, 61, 117, -81, 88, 112, -43, 19, 17, 62, 111, 38, 93, -36, 121, -22, 3, 83, -89, -3, 105, -103, -43, -43, -39, -108, 49, 19, 117, -67, -118]"
})
