How to integrate Gimbal SDK with Cordova-based app?

558 views Asked by At

I am creating a mobile app using gimbal beacon, apache cordova and ionic framework.

Based on quickstart tutorial from Gimbal Doc, i've created sample "Hello Gimbal Android" app with their android SDK which can be downloaded from gimbal manager.

This simple app can detect gimbal beacon while we visit or leave place/beacon.

Now, i'm continue to integrate this sample "Hello Gimbal Android" app (which is build in java with gimbal SDK) with my cordova-based app (which i develop with HTML, CSS and Javascript).

I found cordova gimbal plugin but unfortunately it only support on iOS. Should i create my own cordova plugin for android?

Anyone has experience before?

This link supports Gimbal 2 within Phonegap/Cordova... and supports Android and iOS. Gimbal 2 is BLE, so the Android and iOS OS must be at a level where BLE is implemented.

I'm in the process of trying to make this work in Phonegap. I will update when I do.
