WebIntents plugin for Phonegap
Update from Boris Smus
Maintainer needed
Our team are currently not maintaining this project. We put it on npm because phonegap are changing to npm and we wish to maintain this project again soon.
Adding the Plugin to your project
- To install the plugin, move webintent.js to your project's www folder and include a reference to it in your html files.
- Create the path "com/borismus/webintent" within your project's src/ folder and move the java file into it.
- Add the plugin to your
res/xml/config.xml
file:
<plugin name="WebIntent" value="com.borismus.webintent.WebIntent" />
Using the plugin
The plugin creates the object window.plugins.webintent
with five methods:
startActivity
Launches an Android intent. For example:
window.plugins.webintent.startActivity({
action: window.plugins.webintent.ACTION_VIEW,
url: 'geo:0,0?q=' + address},
function() {},
function() {alert('Failed to open URL via Android Intent')};
);
Launches an Anroid activity by package name and class
window.plugins.webintent.startActivity(
{
action: window.plugins.webintent.ACTION_MAIN,
handler: { packageName: 'com.nianticproject.ingress', className: 'com.nianticproject.ingress.NemesisActivity' }
},
function() {},
function() {alert('Failed to open URL via Android Intent') }
);
hasExtra
checks if this app was invoked with the specified extra. For example:
window.plugins.webintent.hasExtra(WebIntent.EXTRA_TEXT,
function(has) {
// has is true iff it has the extra
}, function() {
// Something really bad happened.
}
);
getExtra
Gets the extra that this app was invoked with. For example:
window.plugins.webintent.getExtra(WebIntent.EXTRA_TEXT,
function(url) {
// url is the value of EXTRA_TEXT
}, function() {
// There was no extra supplied.
}
);
getUri
Gets the Uri the app was invoked with. For example:
window.plugins.webintent.getUri(function(url) {
if(url !== "") {
// url is the url the intent was launched with
}
});
onNewIntent
Gets called when onNewIntent is called for the parent activity. Used in only certain launchModes. For example:
window.plugins.webintent.onNewIntent(function(url) {
if(url !== "") {
// url is the url that was passed to onNewIntent
}
});
sendBroadcast
Sends a custom intent passing optional extras
window.plugins.webintent.sendBroadcast({
action: 'com.dummybroadcast.action.triggerthing',
extras: {
'option': true
}
}, function() {
}, function() {
});
