WebIntents plugin for Phonegap

  • By Boris Smus
  • Updated to Phonegap 3.0 by Avi Vaisenberger
  • Adapted to Cordova/Phonegap command-line Interface by Brais Gabin

Adding the Plugin to your project

There are two ways to install this plugin

1) The Command-line Interface

If you used The Command-line Interface to create your Cordova/Phonegap project you only need write this command at your terminal: cordova plugin add https://github.com/InQBarna/WebIntent.git

2) Manually

  1. To install the plugin, move webintent.js to your project's www folder and include a reference to it in your html files.
  2. Create the path com/borismus/webintent within your project's src/ folder and move the java file into it.
  3. Add the plugin to your res/xml/config.xml file:
<feature name="WebIntent">
    <param name="android-package" value="com.borismus.webintent.WebIntent" />
</feature>

Using the plugin

The plugin creates the object CDV.WEBINTENT with five methods:

startActivity

Launches an Android intent. For example:

CDV.WEBINTENT.startActivity({
    action: CDV.WEBINTENT.ACTION_VIEW,
    url: 'geo:0,0?q=' + address}, 
    function() {}, 
    function() {alert('Failed to open URL via Android Intent')};
);

hasExtra

checks if this app was invoked with the specified extra. For example:

CDV.WEBINTENT.hasExtra(CDV.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:

CDV.WEBINTENT.getExtra(CDV.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:

CDV.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:

CDV.WEBINTENT.onNewIntent(function(url) {
    if(url !== "") {
        // url is the url that was passed to onNewIntent
    }
});

sendBroadcast

Sends a custom intent passing optional extras

CDV.WEBINTENT.sendBroadcast({
        action: 'com.dummybroadcast.action.triggerthing',
        extras: {
            'option': true
        }
    }, function() {
    }, function() {
});
