How To Install The Plugin

This API can be installed from source or from NPM. Installation from NPM is done through the following:

cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-deviceinfo

Installation from source is the same but instead of the id ("cordova-plugin-deviceinfo"), use the file system path to the source plugin folder.

Use

//returns model number i.e. 'Z10'
community.deviceInfo.getModelNumber()

//returns whether the device is a Simulator - 'true' or 'false'
community.deviceInfo.isSimulator()

//returns Roaming Status as 'true' or 'false'
community.deviceInfo.getRoamingStatus()

//returns whether device has physical keyboard as 0 or 1
community.deviceInfo.hasPhysicalKeyboard()

The following APIs require the following permission: read_cellular_data

//returns Mobile Country Code
community.deviceInfo.getMCC()
//returns Mobile Network Code, that identifies the carrier
community.deviceInfo.getMNC()

The following API returns detailed network information for the default interface (ideally WIFI or Cellular)

//returns network information as a JSON object
community.deviceInfo.getNetwork()

Returned object structure...

status			- True/False - did the API work?
ifconnected		- True/False - is the interface connected?
ifipcount		- Number of IP addresses - should be 2, one IPv4 and one IPv6
ifname			- Interface name, e.g. bcm0
ifstatus		- Status of the interface - should be 1 (see [1] below)
iftype			- Type of the interface (see [2] below)
ifup			- True/False - is the interface up?
iplist			- Array of ifipcount object
	ifaddress	- IP of this connection [IPv4 / IPv6]
	ifnetmark	- Netmask of this connection [IPv4 / IPv6]
