CB-8858 Updated version in package.json for release 1.0.0
This plugin defines a global device object, which describes the device's hardware and software. Although the object is in the global scope, it is not available until after the deviceready event.
document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
function onDeviceReady() {
console.log(device.cordova);
}
cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-device
Get the version of Cordova running on the device.
The device.model returns the name of the device's model or product. The value is set by the device manufacturer and may be different across versions of the same product.
// Android: Nexus One returns "Passion" (Nexus One code name) // Motorola Droid returns "voles" // BlackBerry: Torch 9800 returns "9800" // Browser: Google Chrome returns "Chrome" // Safari returns "Safari" // iOS: for the iPad Mini, returns iPad2,5; iPhone 5 is iPhone 5,1. See http://theiphonewiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Models // var model = device.model;
Passion, and Motorola Droid returns voles.TIZENSGH-i917.Get the device's operating system name.
var string = device.platform;
// Depending on the device, a few examples are: // - "Android" // - "BlackBerry 10" // - Browser: returns "MacIntel" on Mac // returns "Win32" on Windows // - "iOS" // - "WinCE" // - "Tizen" var devicePlatform = device.platform;
Windows Phone 7 devices report the platform as WinCE.
Windows Phone 8 devices report the platform as Win32NT.
Get the device's Universally Unique Identifier (UUID).
var string = device.uuid;
The details of how a UUID is generated are determined by the device manufacturer and are specific to the device's platform or model.
// Android: Returns a random 64-bit integer (as a string, again!) // The integer is generated on the device's first boot // // BlackBerry: Returns the PIN number of the device // This is a nine-digit unique integer (as a string, though!) // // iPhone: (Paraphrased from the UIDevice Class documentation) // Returns a string of hash values created from multiple hardware identifies. // It is guaranteed to be unique for every device and can't be tied // to the user account. // Windows Phone 7 : Returns a hash of device+current user, // if the user is not defined, a guid is generated and will persist until the app is uninstalled // Tizen: returns the device IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity or IMEI is a number // unique to every GSM and UMTS mobile phone. var deviceID = device.uuid;
The uuid on iOS is not unique to a device, but varies for each application, for each installation. It changes if you delete and re-install the app, and possibly also when you upgrade iOS, or even upgrade the app per version (apparent in iOS 5.1). The uuid is not a reliable value.
The uuid for Windows Phone 7 requires the permission ID_CAP_IDENTITY_DEVICE. Microsoft will likely deprecate this property soon. If the capability is not available, the application generates a persistent guid that is maintained for the duration of the application's installation on the device.
Get the operating system version.
var string = device.version;
// Android: Froyo OS would return "2.2" // Eclair OS would return "2.1", "2.0.1", or "2.0" // Version can also return update level "2.1-update1" // // BlackBerry: Torch 9800 using OS 6.0 would return "6.0.0.600" // // Browser: Returns version number for the browser // // iPhone: iOS 3.2 returns "3.2" // // Windows Phone 7: returns current OS version number, ex. on Mango returns 7.10.7720 // Tizen: returns "TIZEN_20120425_2" var deviceVersion = device.version;
