Sample Background Service for Cordova

Important Notice

Please be aware that I'm struggling to maintain this plugin. Even after considerable effort, I have been unable to produce a reliable development environment.

While I will work to rectify this, neither Android or Cordova/ Phonegap development represent a priority to me. Neither present me with paid income or particularly excite me enough to put aside other projects.

I will make attempts to be more active in responding to questions – and apologies for any previous delays.

Please keep the above in mind before actively using this plugin.

Background Service Plugin Sample (bgs-sample)

Quick summary

This repository provides a sample background service built on the core functionality for the Background Service Plugin for Cordova (bgs-core). This repository is intended as a learning tool for those developers planning to use the bgs-core to create their own background service.

The bgs-core is provided in the https://github.com/Red-Folder/bgs-core repository.

Getting started

To understand how to create your own background service it is advised that you read the following articles:

• [Using the MyService Sample] (https://github.com/Red-Folder/bgs-core/wiki/Using-the-MyService-Sample)
• [Build your own Background Service] (https://github.com/Red-Folder/bgs-core/wiki/Build-your-own-Background-Service)
• [Build your own plugin] (https://github.com/Red-Folder/bgs-core/wiki/Build-your-own-plugin)

Further documentation can be found at https://github.com/Red-Folder/bgs-core/wiki

Questions and Support

If you have problems, then please log an issue against the bgs-core repository (https://github.com/Red-Folder/bgs-core/issues).

As the plugin is updated (for new features or fixes) I will tweet via @FolderRed and blog http://red-folder.blogspot.co.uk/

Older version

This version of the plugin is intended to work with Cordova 3.0.0+

The older version of the plugin is available at https://github.com/Red-Folder/Cordova-Plugin-BackgroundService. Please note however that this older repository is unlikely to be maintained going forwards. It is advised that you move to Cordova 3.x.x as soon as possible.

Spread the love

If you find the Background Service Plugin useful then spread the love.

All the work I do on the Plugin is done in my spare time - time I would otherwise be spending taking my wife out for a nice meal or helping my lad find vinyl records (he's currently very much into The Smiths, Fleetwood Mac and Kate Bush).

The Plugin is free and will always remain free. I will continue to develop, maintain and distribute the Plugin under the Apache License.
