This plugin allows you to retrieve most information about your Android devices that are available through Android's Telephony Manager and Account Manager classes from your PhoneGap application:
- Your unique Device ID
- Phone Number (if it is stored in your SIM card)
- Country ISO of your phone network provider
- Name of your network provider
- Your SIM Card Serial number
- Country ISO of your SIM card
- Name of your SIM card mobile operator
- E-mail/Phone number used by apps listed in your Settings > Accounts & Sync list
Adding the Plugin to your project
Using this plugin requires Android PhoneGap.
If you have installed PhoneGap CLI, run the following code from the command line:
phonegap local plugin add https://github.com/vliesaputra/DeviceInformationPlugin
Otherwise,
-
To install the plugin, copy the www/deviceinformation.js file to your project's www folder and include a reference to it in your html file after phonegap.js.
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="phonegap.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="deviceinformation.js"></script>
-
Create a directory within your project called "src/com/vliesaputra/cordova/plugins" and copy src/com/vliesaputra/cordova/plugins/DeviceInformation.java into it.
-
In your res/xml/config.xml file add the following line:
<plugin name="DeviceInformation" value="com.vliesaputra.cordova.plugins.DeviceInformation"/>
Using the plugin
Create a new object that represents the plugin using cordova.require. Then you can call the 'get' method on that object providing a success callback which will be called with a result value that is a JSON object of all the information about your devices.
/**
* Get the devices information.
*/
get(success, failure)
Sample use:
var deviceInfo = cordova.require("cordova/plugin/DeviceInformation");
deviceInfo.get(function(result) {
console.log("result = " + result);
}, function() {
console.log("error");
});
