Advanced tools
A cordova plugin to get the size of the device screen.
cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-screensize
document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
function onDeviceReady() {
window.plugins.screensize.get(successCallback, errorCallback);
}
function successCallback(result) {
console.log(result);
}
The plugin returns a JSON object with the screen sizes.
Return values:
width <Number> − screen width in pixelsheight <Number> − screen height in pixelsxdpi <Number> − physical pixels per inch of the screen in the X dimensionydpi <Number> − physical pixels per inch of the screen in the Y dimensiondiameter <Number> − screen diameter in inches (rounded to two decimals)densityValue <Number> − density point (0.75, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0)densityBucket <String> − density bucket (ldpi, mdpi, hdpi, xhdpi, xxhdpi, xxxhdpi)About density properties see this Android docs and this Device metrics page.
The correct device metrics setting is the manufacturer's responsibility. In a few cases the xdpi and ydpi values are wrong and the diameter calculation returns an incorrect number.
Devices with wrong settings (known so far):
BLU LIFE XL, calculated diameter 8.62" vs. real diameter 5.5")SPH-L710, calculated diameter 9.17" vs. real diameter 4.8")NX505J, calculated diameter 13.77" vs. real diameter 5.5")iOS has no public API for getting the device's PPI.
The plugin returns the rendered pixels of the screen.
Return values:
width <Number> − rendered pixel widthheight <Number> − rendered pixel heightscale <Number> − render scale (1× or 2× or 3×)Return values:
width <Number> − screen width in pixelheight <Number> − screen height in pixelphysicalWidth <Number> − width of the display in millimetersphysicalHeight <Number> − height of the display in millimetersdpi <Number> − physical pixels per inch of the displayThe plugin returns the dimensions of the viewport. You can't get the real physical dimensions or the actual DPI of the browser ( see ).
Return values:
width <Number> − viewport width in pixelsheight <Number> − viewport height in pixelscordova-plugin-screensize is licensed under the MIT Open Source license. For more information, see the LICENSE file in this repository.
