Instead of just showing short snippets of code to explain a particular API, this guide is chock full of complete examples. You’ll find more than thirty complete Cordova applications that work on Android, iOS, Windows, and more. The sample applications demonstrate exactly what each API does and how it works, while the chapter content describes the limitations on the leading target platforms (and even offers possible workarounds).
Through realistic “cookbook” example code, mobile developer John Wargo helps you master the Cordova APIs and understand how to use them in your Cordova applications.
Topics include
- Accelerometers, compass, and geolocation
- Image, video, and audio–capture, playback, and management
- Determining connection and device information
- Interacting with the Contacts application
- Responding to application events
- Accessing the device file system
- Globalizing apps
- Using the InAppBrowser
- Notifications
- Custom splash screens
Special care has been taken to make the code easily readable and digestible by the reader. This guide provides the most accessible coverage, anywhere, of Apache Cordova APIs.
John M. Wargo has more than twenty years of experience designing and developing enterprise applications with a focus on collaboration and process automation. He has spent the last five years focusing on mobile development and is the author of BlackBerry Development Fundamentals, PhoneGap Essentials, and Apache Cordova 3 Programming (all from Addison-Wesley). He is currently a Product Manager at SAP, focusing on the SAP Mobile Platform. He is the Product Manager for the Kapsel SDK, SAP's suite of enterprise plugins for Apache Cordova and the SAP Fiori Client, a Cordova application available today in the Android and iOS app stores.
