Hi everyone,

I just published a cordova plugin to get accounts registred on device.
It’s really usefull to get the user email :slight_smile:

If you want to take a look, it’s here : https://github.com/loicknuchel/cordova-device-accounts

Any feedback is welcome !!!

Very nice, looks good! Any thoughts on doing an iOS version as well? Maybe even a ngcordova wrapper? :smile:

I don’t have an iPhone or a mac book… :frowning:
So, the iPhone version would be difficult to me… But I will be very pleased to merge an implementation if somebody want to do it !

For the ngCordova wrapper, it could be great but this project is not mature enought I think… (no tests, api not really eprouved…).

But I can share the service I use to wrap it in my app :

// for Accounts plugin : hhttps://github.com/loicknuchel/cordova-device-accounts
.factory('AccountsSrv', function($q, $window, $ionicPlatform){
  'use strict';
  var service = {
    getAccounts: getAccounts,
    getByType: getByType,
    getEmails: getEmails,
    getEmail: getEmail
  };

  function getAccounts(){
    var defer = $q.defer();
    pluginReady(function(){
      $window.plugins.DeviceAccounts.get(function(accounts){
        defer.resolve(accounts);
      }, function(error){
        defer.reject(error);
      });
    });
    return defer.promise;
  }

  function getByType(type){
    var defer = $q.defer();
    pluginReady(function(){
      $window.plugins.DeviceAccounts.getByType(type, function(accounts){
        defer.resolve(accounts);
      }, function(error){
        defer.reject(error);
      });
    });
    return defer.promise;
  }

  function getEmails(){
    var defer = $q.defer();
    pluginReady(function(){
      $window.plugins.DeviceAccounts.getEmails(function(emails){
        defer.resolve(emails);
      }, function(error){
        defer.reject(error);
      });
    });
    return defer.promise;
  }

  function getEmail(){
    var defer = $q.defer();
    pluginReady(function(){
      $window.plugins.DeviceAccounts.getEmail(function(email){
        defer.resolve(email);
      }, function(error){
        defer.reject(error);
      });
    });
    return defer.promise;
  }

  function pluginReady(fn){
    $ionicPlatform.ready(function(){
      if($window.plugins && $window.plugins.DeviceAccounts){
        fn();
      } else {
        console.log('pluginNotFound:DeviceAccounts');
      }
    });
  }

  return service;
})

It can be used like this :

AccountsSrv.getEmail().then(function(email){
  // some work with first user email registered on device
});

This looks good and I am going to use it in my app.

Thanks for plugin! Please can you give example app with this module?

Hi,

I didn’t have time for that right now but it couldn’t be difficult to integrate it…
Let me know if you have troubles.

7

@loicknuchel Please suggest me any cordova plugin to get accounts registred on device(IOS).

8

Didn’t find any plugin to do that, that’s why I created this plugin.
But I only use Android right now…

BTW, I’m not sure this feature is even possible on iOS…

It seems this plugin does not work for me:

$ cordova -v
4.3.0
$ cordova plugin
com.ionic.keyboard 1.0.4 "Keyboard"
org.apache.cordova.console 0.2.13 "Console"
org.apache.cordova.device 0.3.0 "Device"
org.apache.cordova.globalization 0.3.4 "Globalization"
org.loicknuchel.cordova.deviceaccounts 0.0.1 "Device Accounts"

android:targetSdkVersion="21"

Would you help me with?

Thank you.

Hi @vlikin, what is your problem with the plugin ?

PS: it’s a Android only plugin

11

Yes, for android.
It seems the plugin is not attached to plugings.
.DeviceAccounts is undefined.

13

Can someone please tell me the steps to port this to iOS. I am willing to compile it and submit it to the community.

14

Hi @sukhsingh,

I’m not sure if it’s possible to do this on iOS but if you can you just have to follow the API called by JS : https://github.com/loicknuchel/cordova-device-accounts/blob/master/www/DeviceAccounts.js

A class DeviceAccounts with methods getDeviceAccounts and getDeviceAccountsByType which returns an array of objects with fields type and name.

Feel free to send a PR to the repo.

15

i get this error when debugging on emulator ReferenceError: AccountsSrv is not defined. is there a way around this yet?

16

Hi @EasyHero, AccountSrv is not defined in the plugin.
If you want to use it, you should copy/paste my sample in your project as your own code.

17

Hi @loicknuchel
I want you help me into plugin get device cordova accounts in ionic with method app.js. What about you share a controller or factory as share you below.
