Android compiler error.
Any idea how to fix this?

Hi,

can anyone give me a hint how to work with a laserscanner?

I tried working with adb getevent and received the following things:

add device 5: /dev/input/event0 name: "keyremap_virtual" events: KEY (0001): KEY_F12 KEY_HOME KEY_VOLUMEUP KEY_SCALE KEY_MENU KEY_WAKEUP KEY_PROG1 KEY_BACK KEY_UNKNOWN input props: <none>

and this is appears when I show a live listener with adb

[ 119373.240199] /dev/input/event0: EV_KEY KEY_PROG1 DOWN [ 119373.240276] /dev/input/event0: EV_SYN SYN_REPORT 00000000 [ 119374.770156] /dev/input/event0: EV_KEY KEY_PROG1 UP [ 119374.770280] /dev/input/event0: EV_SYN SYN_REPORT 00000000

How can I implement this in the eventlistener now? I tried listen to "keyremap_virtual" but nothing happens.

The goal is to be able to trigger the laserscanner button anytime and receive the input to work with.

Thanks for any advice.

refer https://github.com/navarrojava/cordova-broadcaster#readme，This is a very useful function

In the example you suggest using sendBroadcastSync, but documentation suggests that it's a blocking operation. How come you suggest using it over the regular version of that call?

I registered in a page to monitor, route to b use the fireEvent notice a page after page, but will return to the page after page didn't receive b's radio, this is probably where I write wrong

this.broadcaster.addEventListener('requestCredential').subscribe((event) => console.log(event));

I am getting error Uncaught (in promise): [object Null] in iOS.
It is working fine in android.

let listener = function( e ) {
  console.log('barcode :: ' + JSON.stringify(e));
}
window.broadcaster.addEventListener( "BarcodeReader", listener);

Android code
Intent intentVal = new Intent("BarcodeReader");


Bundle b = new Bundle();

b.putString( "barcode", content+"");

b.putString( "userdata", "{ "data": "test"}" );

intent.putExtras( b);


LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(MainActivity.this).sendBroadcastSync(intentVal);

but e prints as {} instead of actual data.

I'm using the following code to trigger the GTALK heartbeat in order to maitain the GCM socket open.

window.broadcaster.fireNativeEvent("com.google.android.intent.action.GTALK_HEARTBEAT", {}, function () {
    console.log("GTALK_HEARTBEAT fired");
}, function (e, a) {
    console.log("GTALK_HEARTBEAT error", e, a);
});

In the web console and logcat I'm seeing the "GTALK_HEARTBEAT fired" but not any mentions to the intent of being fire. Is this normal?

Could you help me to debug this?

very less doc to descript how to use cordova broadcaster in Ionic2?
Could please offer a full demo?

I came across this plugin while looking for a way to catch an app terminated event for iOS in my Ionic 3 project and this broadcaster seemed to be just what I needed. I must not be using it right or something b/c I can get events when the app is put to the background but not when it's killed.

I'm also a super noob when it comes to swift/obj c and the iOS lifecycle so if someone has a better suggestion for an iOS app unload/close/exit/terminated event that would easily work with this package I'm definitely open to it.

Here's what I've tried so far...

This works. I can see the console log in my safari web inspector so I know I have the package installed and working as intended...

this.broadcaster.addEventListener('UIApplicationDidEnterBackgroundNotification').subscribe((event) => {
        console.log('ENTER BACKGROUND');
      });

These DO NOT work. As far I can tell, none of these listeners are fired when the app is closed. The appTerminated function sends a request to my api which updates my database so even if the console closes before I can see the log I should see a change in my database.

this.broadcaster.addEventListener('UIApplicationWillTerminate').subscribe((event) => {
  console.log("UIApplicationWillTerminate", event);
  this.appTerminated();
});

this.broadcaster.addEventListener('UIApplicationWillTerminateNotification').subscribe((event) => {
  console.log("UIApplicationWillTerminateNotification", event);
  this.appTerminated();
});

this.broadcaster.addEventListener('applicationWillTerminate').subscribe((event) => {
  console.log("applicationWillTerminate", event);
  this.appTerminated();
});

window.addEventListener('applicationWillTerminate', () => {
  console.log("WINDOW applicationWillTerminate");
  this.appTerminated();
});

window.addEventListener('UIApplicationWillTerminateNotification', () => {
  console.log("WINDOW UIApplicationWillTerminateNotification");
  this.appTerminated();
});

this.broadcaster.addEventListener('UIApplicationExitsOnSuspend').subscribe((event) => {
  console.log('SUSPENDED EXIT');
  this.appTerminated();
});

Finally, I tried adding this bit to the end of CDVBroadcaster.m file in my platforms/ios directory. Still no listeners getting executed.

- (void)applicationWillTerminate:(UIApplication *)application
{
    
    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:@"applicationWillTerminate"
                                                        object:nil
                                                      userInfo:@{@"data": @"test"}];
    
}

Any help is appreciated.

Is it possible to receive the broadcast from android.intent.action.PACKAGE_ADDED？

Thanks for the new update to 4.3.0 but is is still too "new" the if shorthand is aperently an issue for the old versions.
So i'm still locked to version 4.1.0

l'applicazione cordova/ionic non riesce più ad uscire con il tasto back hardware ne con un comando esplicito exitApp.
Ho provato ad richiamare removeEventListener, ma niente da fare.

Hai qualche idea ?

Grazie.

Given Cordova for Windows is WinJS, has consideration been given to adding the windows platform that would simply include the BroadcasterProxy.js?

If this would be an OK addition I would be happy to do a PR to add and test it.

Like plugin com-darryncampbell-cordova-plugin-intent the cordova-broadcaster will not return exclusively the userdata extra field but all extra fields

Hello guys, can I get the current Battery Mode (normal, low power mode)?

Can one use this plugin to listen for system events, such as locking and unlocking of a device?

Error messages are not printed out correctly, i.e. it would be better to print messages like console.error('Error', error) as Chrome would print out the error object instead of printing [object Object].

I am talking about line 39 and line 52

When I call successively addEventListener, removeEventListener and addEventListener again, it does not subscribe using the new function passed in. I think it would be more proper to remove the key from the list of events so that it does register a new function.

It would basically mean adding delete me._channels[eventname] here

my project use ionic3,and i want to send broadcast to native page. but when I registered for the broadcast, I couldn't receive the broadcast.

e.g. https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/blob/master/framework/src/org/apache/cordova/CordovaWebView.java#L92

    /**
     * Send JavaScript statement back to JavaScript.
     *
     * Deprecated (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-6851)
     * Instead of executing snippets of JS, you should use the exec bridge
     * to create a Java->JS communication channel.
     * To do this:
     * 1. Within plugin.xml (to have your JS run before deviceready):
     *    <js-module><runs/></js-module>
     * 2. Within your .js (call exec on start-up):
     *    require('cordova/channel').onCordovaReady.subscribe(function() {
     *      require('cordova/exec')(win, null, 'Plugin', 'method', []);
     *      function win(message) {
     *        ... process message from java here ...
     *      }
     *    });
     * 3. Within your .java:
     *    PluginResult dataResult = new PluginResult(PluginResult.Status.OK, CODE);
     *    dataResult.setKeepCallback(true);
     *    savedCallbackContext.sendPluginResult(dataResult);
     */

Note also that executing javascript directly requires specifying 'unsafe-eval' in the Content-Security-Policy.

I can retrieve the JSON from userInfo but I also want to grab data from the object posted from iOS NSNotificationCenter. Is that possible?

I'm building a app for iOS with Ionic and want to use some native code. When the volumebutton is pressed there will be a broadcast send to the Ionic app:

if ([keyPath isEqual:@"outputVolume"]) { NSLog(@"volume"); [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:@"eventName" object:nil userInfo:@{ @"data":@"test"}]; }

This is working and "Volume" is logged.

Unfortunately the broadcaster is nog listening to the broadcast or something?
i use the following code:

if(this.platform.is("cordova"))
{
var observable = this.broadcaster.addEventListener("eventName");
this.volume = 30;
observable.subscribe((event) => this.volume = 50, (event) => this.volume = event);
this.broadcaster.fireNativeEvent("eventName", {}).then(() => console.log('success'));
}

I only set the volume to 50 for a check, but the volume is never set to 50.
Did i do something wrong?

Hi tried using the code snipper to send a broadcast from javascript to native with some data and the fireNativeEvent promise always resolves to error:

this.broadCaster .fireNativeEvent("com.service.print", { extras: { item: "test data" } }) .then((result) => { console.log("broadcast sent:" + result); }) .catch((error) => { console.log("Error sending broadcast:" + error); });

here is the original question on SO

Hello, I use phonegap plugin to handle push notification receiving in my cordova project.
Currently I face the ios only issue that when application is running push notifications arrive directly to the app and not to the notification center.
That means I have to display the custom alert to show user the push notification.
The question is if I can use your plugin to forward the push notification from the app to the notification center to provide the consistent behavior for both background and foreground receive?
Thank you in advance.

If not, would it be possible to use the plugin and rewrite the plugin to use the global broadcast manager instead of the local one?

I have to send broadcast from iOS. I used following code which is not working.

NotificationCenter.default.post(name: NSNotification.Name(rawValue: "callback"), object: nil, userInfo: nil)

this.broadcaster = new Broadcaster();
          this.broadcaster.addEventListener("callback").subscribe((event) => {  // you can subscribe for multiple events from native
            console.log("received event : ");
         });

I even checked if something was wrong with the broadcast by listening to it in native side only and it was working perfectly fine there.

NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(checkBroadcast(_:)), name: NSNotification.Name(rawValue: "callback"), object: nil)

func checkBroadcast(_ notif: NSNotification){
    print("Success");
}

The same is working fine when i am sending broadcasts from android side using following code:

Intent intent = new Intent("callback");
        intent.putExtras(bundle);
        LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(context).sendBroadcastSync(intent);

I am trying to use this plugin to receive android broadcast intents.
I register for the broadcast event

     window.broadcaster.addEventListener("com.android.action.SEND_SCAN_RESULT", function (e) { 
            console.log("com.android.action.SEND_SCAN_RESULT received."); 
       });
      console.log("com.android.action.SEND_SCAN_RESULT registered");

but if the intent gets fired

   V/ActivityManager(  775): Broadcast: Intent { act=com.android.action.SEND_SCAN_RESULT flg=0x10 (has extras) } ordered=false userid=0 callerApp=ProcessRecord{1418277c 775:system/1000}

the callback does not get triggered.

The only log message is

com.android.action.SEND_SCAN_RESULT registered

do I have to add anything to the Android Manifest file?

var listener = function( e ) { //log: didShow received! userInfo: {"data":"test"} alert( "didShow received! userInfo: " + JSON.stringify(e) ); }

Appears to returns:
{"isTrusted": false}

Prefixed inside the response object from my iOS NSNotificationCenter post. I'm assuming it might have something to do with trusting the broadcaster?

This is my code in ionic.

constructor(public navCtrl: NavController,public broadcaster: Broadcaster,private platform: Platform) 
{
   this.platform.ready().then(() => {
     console.log('Ready')
     this.broadcaster.addEventListener('postevent')
       .subscribe((Event) => console.log('After post ionic'));

      this.broadcaster.fireNativeEvent('eventName', {}).then(() => console.log('After fire ionic'));
   });

And i have add following code in native side. In MainViewController

 (void)viewDidLoad
{
    [super viewDidLoad];
     [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(navigateFromPlugin) name:@"eventName" object:nil];
    // Do any additional setup after loading the view from its nib.
}
-(void)navigateFromPlugin
{
    NSLog(@"Print Native **************");
    
    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:@"postevent" object:self];

}

This code not working. 'After post ionic' log not printed.

I add CDVBroadcaster.h and CDVBroadcaster.m file to my iOS Project. and add
""feature name="broadcaster"><param name="ios-package" value="CDVBroadcaster"
/feature""
in my config.xml.
but when I run js. it not working.

Hi i need to subscribe my app to the volume buttons click event, but i dont know what's the event name i have to subscribe, there's a list event i can check?

In the ionic native docs:

// Listen to events from Native
this.broadcaster.addEventListener('eventName').subscribe((event) => console.log(event));

Greetings!!

how to start

This issue is still (see #15) am having with latest version as well. I am not able to remove the listener. Since am using the same with multiple places with different purpose hence i want to remove from one page and add at another page (ionic 2 project)

Hello,

I try to use the Broadcaster in IOS, but I always have the same error:

[Warning] Native: I tried to call Broadcaster.addEventListener, but the Broadcaster plug-in is not installed. (vendor.js, line 72225)
[Warning] Install the Broadcaster plugin: 'ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-broadcaster' (vendor.js, line 72231)
[Warning] Native: I tried to call Broadcaster.removeEventListener, but the Broadcaster plug-in is not installed. (vendor.js, line 72225)
[Warning] Install the Broadcaster plugin: 'ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-broadcaster' (vendor.js, line 72231)
[Error] ERROR - Error: plugin_not_installed

on Android works well

I use the latest version of the plugin and the latest version of @ ionic-native / broadcaster

What could be wrong?

Thanks

Hi there,

can you please provide some example/infos where this plugin would be useful.

I am trying to voice activate my Cordova app and wanted to see if this plugin would help with that.

thanks

I believe that local broadcast does not work if an app is restarted via an intent service... I am happy to make the change and submit a pull request, but wanted to check whether that fit in with your vision for the plugin...

is it possible to make it work with sdk22 ?

I want to send a simple JSON object but the plugin was not able to convert it correctly to JSON

I want to send this simple JSON
{ "data":{ "testingkey":"testingValue" } }

So according to the documentation should be something like this

val bundle1 = Bundle()
bundle1.putString("testingkey", "testingValue")
val bundle2 = Bundle()
bundle2.putBundle("json", bundle1)
intent.putExtra("data",  bundle2)

After that in the listener when I put the log to see the response
console.log(JSON.stringify(e, null, "\t"))

I got this:
{ "isTrusted": false, "data": "Bundle[{json=Bundle[{TestingKey=TestingValue}]}]" }

Note that I don't want to send the JSON as string because if I try something like this:

intent.putExtra("data", jsont.toString())

I got this:

{ 
   "data":"{\"testingkey\":\"testingValue\"}"
}

So it appears that your plugin is supporting just one depth in the JSON Object

Is this plugin working at all ? I am trying this in an ionic app like below but not able to make it work :

Here is my code inside app.js's $ionicPlatform.ready function :

if (window.broadcaster) {
window.broadcaster.addEventListener( "CUSTOM_EVENT_NAME_BROADCASTED_FROM_NATIVE_LAYER", function( e ) {
console.log( "Event received! userInfo: " + JSON.stringify(e) );
});
} else {
console.log('windown.broadcaster not available');
}

It's not invoking the else block, and the registered callback-block is not called also.

Any pointer would be helpful.

Thanks

Hi. Error in title just one of few. Getting these errors in ionic app.
Didn't do anything but starting project and installing this plugin.
I used plugin as mentioned in ionic docs
Can't use this plugin as your readme anyway. When i try to use an error says expected 1 argument but got 2.

Some of other errors:

error: cannot find symbol
    LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(super.webView.getContext()).unregisterReceiver(receiverHolder.receiver);
    ^
  symbol:   variable LocalBroadcastManager

error: cannot find symbol
    return LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(super.webView.getContext()).sendBroadcast(intent);
           ^
  symbol:   variable LocalBroadcastManager
  location: class CDVBroadcaster

Btw i can build kotlin version of my app with the same intent. Which is airplane mode. So i am guessing the problem isn't with my java/gradle ... versions or anything with my computer.

I'm a front-end engineer and don't know anything about Android....Now I have a web-project and use cordova to build apk but i dont konw whitch .java file to write your android code ... thanks

Yesterday, I came across this error when building my android platform in my Ionic 3 project.

Removing this plugin, then removing and re-adding the android platform allows me to build successfully. If I have this plugin installed it kills the build. Initially, I had plugin v2.3.0 and updating to v3.0.1 didn't help.

Via this ionic forum topic, that's had some recent activity, I tried editing this line in the plugin.xml in the node_modules and plugin directory from
<framework src="com.android.support:support-v4:+" />
to
<framework src="com.android.support:support-v4:26+" />
and got it to build after adding the android platform.
(26 is my targetSdkVersion)

I've been using the broadcaster for iOS events for months and have had no issues building any of the platforms up to this point. I figured I'd put this here just in case anyone else has this problem and so it can be addressed in subsequent builds.
