svyPhonegap

Welcome to the svyPhonegap wiki! This wiki provides comprehensive documentation for using the svyPhonegap web-service, which is bridge to connect Servoy to Phonegap’s native plugins.

Getting Started

Import the phonegap.servoy solution and add it as a module to your main solution. The svyPhonegap service should be automatically imported with solution. Within the onSolutionOpen event of your main solution initialize the phonegap scope as shown below:

function onSolutionOpen(arg, queryParams) {
//initialize phonegap module
scopes.phonegap.onSolutionOpen(arg,queryParams, onReadyCallback);

}	

function onReadyCallback(){
//device is ready, get information from a plugin
application.output(plugins.svyphonegapDevice.getDeviceInfo());
}

You can also add the phonegap module through source (GIT) then import as an existing project in your workspace.

Working Example
