cordova-plugin-window-background :art:
This is a simple plugin for Android which will set the window background color for you app's MainActivity to a color of your choice. This allows you to avoid the standard dark grey background which will flash for a second before your splash screen appears. Set the color to the same background as your splash screen for a smoother start-up effect.
Installation
You'll need to set your desired window background color while installing the plugin by supplying the WINDOW_BACKGROUND_COLOR
variable. Set it to whatever you want, preferrably the same color as your splash screen.
cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-window-background --variable WINDOW_BACKGROUND_COLOR=#FFFFFF --variable COLOR_PRIMARY=#3F51B5 --variable COLOR_PRIMARYDARK=#303F9F --variable COLOR_ACCENT=#FF4081 --save
Or install directly from this repo:
cordova plugin add https://github.com/douglaszaltron/cordova-plugin-window-background.git --variable WINDOW_BACKGROUND_COLOR=#FFFFFF --variable COLOR_PRIMARY=#3F51B5 --variable COLOR_PRIMARYDARK=#303F9F --variable COLOR_ACCENT=#FF4081 --save
Supported Platforms
- Android
Configuration
A custom WINDOW_BACKGROUND_COLOR
variable will be added to your app's config.xml after installation with the value you selected (provided you included the --save
flag).
You can change it whenever you want, but you'll need to remove and re-add the Android platform from your project in order for the change to go through.
<plugin name="cordova-plugin-window-background">
<variable name="WINDOW_BACKGROUND_COLOR" value="#FFFFFF" />
<variable name="COLOR_PRIMARY" value="#3F51B5" />
<variable name="COLOR_PRIMARYDARK" value="#303F9F" />
<variable name="COLOR_ACCENT" value="#FF4081" />
</plugin>
To re-add the Android platform:
cordova platform remove android
cordova platform add android
TODO
- Find a way to make changes to config.xml automatically update without having to re-add the platform.
