Re: [aerogear-dev] Cordova Plugin Idea

Cordova is something I want to dig into after 1.0. I like the spirit of the idea. See comments inline.

I think so I know cordova has a storage api, but it looks like it is just based on the W3C web storage/web sql specs That would probably be the basis of the "default adapter" for DataManager on Cordova. I see a separate Cordova repo that can include a copy of AeroGear.js with the default adapters (Pipeline:Rest, Auth:Rest, DataManager:Memory), then we could implement other adapters, like a DataManager:CoreData adapter on top of that. Our custom build system should allow for building a custom Cordova download as well as be able to include other pieces from the AeroGear.js core (DataManager:SessionLocal for example). i guess i was thinking this is how it would work: Possibley have an aerogear.js datamanager plugin for the front end that then calls the aerogear ios libs coredata plugin Yes, though this is where we would need to involve someone with Cordova plugin and iOS experience to get that connection between the JS and iOS libs.

In JS var dataManager = AeroGear.DataManager({ name: coreDataStore, type: CoreData //or something }); var coreDataStore = dataManager.stores[0]; coreDataStore.read() // this would access the Aerogear ios core data part I'm not really familiar with core data, so i could be way off base with this idea -Luke _______________________________________________ aerogear-dev mailing list aerogear-dev(a)lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/aerogear-dev _______________________________________________ aerogear-dev mailing list aerogear-dev(a)lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/aerogear-dev
