batterystatus
===========
This is an event that fires when a Cordova application detects a change in the battery status.
window.addEventListener("batterystatus", yourCallbackFunction, false);
Details
-------
This event that fires when a Cordova application detects the percentage of battery has changed by at least 1 percent. It is also fired if the device has been plugged in or un-plugged.
The battery status handler will be called with an object that contains two properties:
- __level:__ The percentage of battery (0-100). _(Number)_
- __isPlugged:__ A boolean that represents whether or not the device is plugged in or not. _(Boolean)_
Typically, you will want to attach an event listener with `window.addEventListener` once you receive the Cordova 'deviceready' event.
Supported Platforms
-------------------
- iOS
- Android
- BlackBerry WebWorks (OS 5.0 and higher)
- Windows Phone 7 and 8
- Tizen
Windows Phone 7 Quirks
----------------------
The `level` property is unavailable as Windows Phone 7 does not provide
native APIs for determining battery level. The level value returned on Windows Phone 7 devices will always be -1.
The `isPlugged` parameter _is_ supported.
Quick Example
-------------
window.addEventListener("batterystatus", onBatteryStatus, false);
function onBatteryStatus(info) {
// Handle the online event
console.log("Level: " + info.level + " isPlugged: " + info.isPlugged);
}
