Asset2SD plugin for Phonegap

By Gautam Chaudhary

Phonegap plugin for Android for copying files from app assets to device SD Card. Tested with Phonegap versions 1.3 and 1.4 and will need changes to make it work with newer Phonegap versions

Adding the Plugin to your project

1. To install the plugin, move asset2sd.js to your project's www folder and include a reference to it in your html files.
2. Create a folder gkcgautam within your project's src/com/ folder and move the file Asset2SD.java into it.

Using the plugin

The plugin creates the object window.plugins.Asset2SD with method startActivity.

The full params are as follows:

• asset_file - The file to be copied from app assets. For example, "www/images/photo.jpg"
• destination_file_location - The folder in SD Card to which the file should be copied. If the folder doesn't already exist, it gets created automatically.
• destination_file - The name with which the file has to saved. For example, "image.jpg"
• callback Success callback.
• fail Error callback

Example usage:

window.plugins.Asset2SD.startActivity({
	asset_file: "www/images/photo.jpg",
	destination_file_location: "Photos",
	destination_file: "photo.jpg"},
	function() { alert('success'); }, 
	function() { alert('fail'); }
);
