Re: cordova-browser plugin polyfills -- which projects already have work in this space?
Also - I believe those APIs are available only to Chrome apps & extensions. I do know though, that Chrome team is trying to make bluetooth on the open web a thing: https://github.com/WebBluetoothCG/web-bluetooth. I doubt all the access that you'd want will be available any time soon though (they are targeting just the "safe" subset of Bluetooth).

Re: cordova-browser plugin polyfills -- which projects already have work in this space?
No. Or if it does, it won't ... You should use feature detection to determine if you can respond correctly to an API call, and/or throw a descriptive error if you cannot make it work. @purplecabbage risingj.com On Fri, Nov 14, 2014 at 1:29 PM, Don Coleman wrote: > Does the browser platform always target Chrome? > > When implementing the browser platform in a plugin can I access protected > chrome APIs such as > https://developer.chrome.com/apps/bluetooth and > https://developer.chrome.com/apps/bluetoothLowEnergy? > > On Fri, Nov 14, 2014 at 4:07 PM, Ray Camden wrote: > > > Sorry - what I meant was - it wasn’t refreshed.

Re: cordova-browser plugin polyfills -- which projects already have work in this space?
Does the browser platform always target Chrome? When implementing the browser platform in a plugin can I access protected chrome APIs such as https://developer.chrome.com/apps/bluetooth and https://developer.chrome.com/apps/bluetoothLowEnergy?

Ray, thanks for adding this.

RE: cordova-browser plugin polyfills -- which projects already have work in this space?
We have started working on porting some of the plugins to the browser platform. I think we should add JIRA work items for each, and assign to ourselves, if we are starting to work on a plugin to ensure that we don't have 2 folks working on the same plugin :) -Original Message- From: Suraj Pindoria [mailto:suraj.pindo...@yahoo.com.INVALID] Sent: Wednesday, November 5, 2014 10:07 AM To: dev@cordova.apache.org Subject: Re: cordova-browser plugin polyfills -- which projects already have work in this space?

Good point, Michal. It would be nice if we could browse the plugins by just filtering the platform. 2014-11-05 10:53 GMT-06:00 Michal Mocny : > Cool!

As just an FYI, plugins.cordova.io can now filter to plugins that support browser as a platform. This could be used to figure out what plugins have added support.

cordova-browser plugin polyfills -- which projects already have work in this space?
Hi All, So there's this new cordova-browser platform thing, which is awesome. I wanted to get the ball rolling on full plugin support for browser platform (thanks to Suraj Pindoria + other Adobe folk for the great work so far). I know a bunch of people/teams have independently solved a lot of the problems with cordova plugins not running in a browser. E.g. Some teams have built client libraries that do feature detection and fallback. I know there are some frameworks like angular that have libs for polyfilling cordova plugins (I think Ionic may do this by default?). And we saw Telerik demo cordova plugin polyfills in something that already looked like cordova-browser at PGDay. Instead of re-inventing the wheel, please help point out such existing solutions, and/or reach out to those devs and get them involved in upstreaming. Core plugins that still need implementations are: cordova-plugin-battery-status cordova-plugin-console cordova-plugin-contacts cordova-plugin-dialogs cordova-plugin-file-transfer cordova-plugin-file cordova-plugin-geolocation cordova-plugin-globalization cordova-plugin-inappbrowser cordova-plugin-media cordova-plugin-media-capture cordova-plugin-splashscreen cordova-plugin-vibration cordova-plugin-statusbar cordova-plugin-test-framework cordova-plugins/android-legacy-websql/ cordova-plugins/file-system-roots/ cordova-plugins/keyboard/ cordova-plugins/websql/ The process for implementing a browser polyfill (I'm new to this, may be missing steps), appears to be just like any other platform whose implementations are in js (like firefoxos, windows). Here is the implementation for device plugin for example: In plugin.xml: The critical bits of src/browser/DeviceProxy.js: module.exports = { getDeviceInfo: function (success, error) { setTimeout(function () { success({ cordova: browser.cordovaVersion, platform: getPlatform(), model: getModel(), version: getVersion(), uuid: null }); }, 0); } }; require("cordova/exec/proxy").add("Device", module.exports); That last line is the critical bit, which signals to the bridge to forward exec calls to these js functions for the "Device" feature. Proxy handler is called with (success, fail, args). -Michal
