---------------------------------
Hi Kevin,
I’m using Ionic’s platform object to show the device info and it is showing
isAndroid to be true. I’ve injected the $cordovaAppInBrowser module into my
controller and then call it with:
$cordovaAppInBrowser.open(…); // with the _system target.
This is what the ngCordova document advises, see:
http://ngcordova.com/docs/plugins/inAppBrowser/
However, NOTHING happens.
My debug shows the URI is:
blob:file%3A///8100/b1a1931e-a592-489e-84cd-ceb327e363ff
and while it looks weird, it works perfectly fine for rendering images and PDFs
on an iOS device. FYI, that URI is what I get after I retrieve an attachment
from CouchDB then ask for it to return a trusted link to it:
var blobURL =
URL.createObjectURL(blobObj);
if (appConfig.devMode)
{console.log('Retrieved the URL:', blobURL);}
$timeout ( function ()
{
deferred.resolve($sce.trustAsResourceUrl(blobURL) );
},1200 );
The point is, though, that this URI works fine everywhere BUT for the Android
inAppBrowswer :(
Any other ideas would be REALLY appreciated :)
Thanks,
Ralph
> Add PDF support to the InAppBrowser within Android

> Key: CB-3325
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-3325
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Android
> Affects Versions: 2.6.0
> Environment: Windows 7, Eclipse v3.8.0
> Reporter: Kelvin Dart
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: Master
>
>
> When I was making use of the ChildBrowser for both iOS and Android, I wrote
> an extra bit of code to enable PDF support for the Android version (which
> started up the installed PDF application if there was one).
> I also understand that the Android WebView doesn't natively support viewing a
> PDF document which is why it doesn't fully behave like the iOS version - but
> is it possible to either: 1) write similar code which, if the opened URL is
> directed to a PDF file, then it opens the native PDF reader or; 2) integrate
> a PDF view into the InAppBrowser which opens a PDF document much like
> InAppBrowser does on iOS.
> (1) is what I currently have working at the moment and would probably be
> easiest. (2) is what would be very good but I expect more difficult to
> achieve.
