Hi,
My idea having a native UI, but all logic in javascript has to have a name so let’s call
it hybrid Cordova.
I experimented a bit yesterday with the idea and it seems very feasible. On the Cordova
home page they have already a guide how to include the Cordova web view on a native
project, with that creating a interface to be able to call javascript is almost to easy.
What I have now is a native (android) button that calls a javascript function. It uses a
plugin to call the javascript and offers a static method for the execution.
So to take this to the next level, I think we need a bit of a javascript api to do page
navigation. And have a bit of a Java Api to initialise the WebView and specify the name of
the script to load. Or just pickup all scripts in a assets directory.
WDYT, is it worth exploring further?
Cheers,
Erik Jan

some links:

an interesting blog post on iOS/Codova embedded webview:

mind to share a demo repo?

yeap, not sure yet what the js api need to look like but this could be useful for a
form-based cordova screen you’d like to integrate with a more complex native apps.
we can deal with navigation and data storage.
to be investigated further.

Cool thing about this you could still use all cordova plugins, so you could have data
storage as a native still.

Sounds like a good project for a student on the "Google Summer of Code"?

Right, or I could do it while I ‘wait’ for iOS and android sync libraries
Or you
could help us with the sync libraries.
Right now passos and I are discussing making APIs to connect with the
sync server and FeedHenry's services. After we figure out what that
will look like from an API/usage standpoint we can begin designing that
code. After that point we will need to figure out how to work it into
the Android Sync Adapter framework (which will probably require some
work on the auth/authz end).
We've got a planning gist right now to define our epics before we make
individual JIRA tasks.

If you could become a FH sync expert this week it would do amazing
things for our ability to move forward.

that or anything else, is way higher priority
Right now passos and I are discussing making APIs to connect with the
sync server and FeedHenry's services.
Not sure we should duplicate functionality that's already available inside
of the FH SDK.
My pref. here is focusing on our real-time sync server first..... I don't
get why using the FH SDK for accessing the sync framework from feedhenry is
not good enough

It may be enough. I don't have enough information
to make this claim
however. At the very least there will need to be shim code to make sure
it plays nicely with the other Aerogear things. For instance we may
want to use a Keycloak OAuth solution to retrieve tokens to talk to
FH.sync. We will need to have enough support in AG.sync to pass those
tokens to FH.sync.
Also the FH Android SDK is very incomplete right now and is missing
features that are in the FH JS SDK and in AG Android. They will need to
be written at some point by someone.

Again, my preference here is to limit our current sync work on the
real-time stuff. We can do the FH 'adapter' always at a later time (e.g.
this summer or fall)
