Question

I wanted to know how Worklight uses PhoneGap as it’s something I am required to do shortly. I hear that PhoneGap is ‘build into’ Worklight. If this is so, do I have to declare I’m using it, as in the below?:

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="cordova-1.9.0.js"></script>

And for that matter, if I do have to declare it, how do I know what version of PhoneGap it is utilising? If I don’t have to declare it, will it just recognise my PhoneGap calls?

Any advice on this would be super as I just cannot find the answers on either the Worklight or PhoneGap websites.

Thanks!

@creights there is not need to add Cordova.js internal into your Worklight application. By default Cordova plugin is included in your worklight app. You need to just use the functionality of plugin like camera,accelerator etc for an example i have a piece of code how to include camera in ur worklight application.

function takePicture() {

    navigator.camera.getPicture(
        function(data) {
            var img = dom.byId('camera_image');
            img.style.visibility = "visible";
            img.style.display = "block";
            //img.src = "data:image/jpeg;base64," + data;
            img.src = data;
            dom.byId('camera_status').innerHTML = "Success";
        },
        function(e) {
            console.log("Error getting picture: " + e);
            dom.byId('camera_status').innerHTML = e;
            dom.byId('camera_image').style.display = "none";
        },
        { quality: 50, destinationType: navigator.camera.DestinationType.FILE_URI, sourceType : navigator.camera.PictureSourceType.CAMERA});
};

Just copy the code into AppMain.js in ur js folder.
