A phonegap 3.x plugin for brightness control within android and ios. Also recently I have added the function for keep screen on.
You may use phonegap CLI as follows:
➜ phonegap local plugin add https://github.com/fiscal-cliff/phonegap-plugin-brightness.git [phonegap] adding the plugin: https://github.com/fiscal-cliff/phonegap-plugin-brightness.git [phonegap] successfully added the plugin
The code below can be placed into script tag.
document.addEventListener('deviceready', onDeviceReady);
function onDeviceReady() {
window.brightness = cordova.require("cordova.plugin.Brightness.Brightness");
}
function setBrightness(value) {
// value should be float in range from 0 to 1.
brightness.setBrightness(value, win, fail);
}
function getBrightness() {
// win([-1,0-1]) float 0-1 is a brightness level, -1 represents a system default
brightness.getBrightness( win, fail);
}
function win(status) {
alert('Message: ' + status);
}
function fail(status) {
alert('Error: ' + status);
}You may also prevent a sleep (or keep screen on).
// prevents sleep
brightness.setKeepScreenOn(true);
// returns normal behavior
pluginService.brightness.setKeepScreenOn(false);Modify your config.xml to include the following tag:
<plugin spec="https://github.com/fiscal-cliff/phonegap-plugin-brightness.git" source="git" />
