cordova-file-test

Demo Meteor mobile app for this stackoverflow question.

The master branch contains original code referred to in the stackoverflow question. The solution branch contains working code.

How to read the code

client/main.js contains all the interesting bits. Hints:

1. git show master:client/main.js
2. git show solution:client/main.js
3. git diff master:client/main.js solution:client/main.js

Check out mobile-config.js, too. Having the app id is handy, and setting the AndroidExtraFilesystems permission is necessary to be able to access external storage.

Test

1. Clone this repository, checkout solution branch.
2. Install prerequisites.
3. Enable USB debugging on the device.
4. Start app with meteor run android-device.
5. Copy a file to the device's external storage.
   1. Create a text file a with some contents.
   2. Use something like adb push a /sdcard/Android/data/com.adammonsen.app/files/a.
6. Open chrome://inspect in a browser.
7. Touch the button in the app and look for debug output in the console.
