Description
Using Apache Cordova, mobile developers can
write cross-platform mobile apps using standard HTML5, JavaScript,
and CSS, and then deploy those apps to every leading mobile
platform with little or no re-coding. Apache Cordova API
Cookbook provides experienced mobile developers with
details about how each Cordova API works and how to use the APIs in
their own applications. Coverage is included for all
Cordova/PhoneGap 3 APIs. 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.
