ocaml-cordova-plugin-device-motion

What does cordova-plugin-device-motion do ?

This plugin provides access to the device's accelerometer. The accelerometer is
a motion sensor that detects the change (delta) in movement relative to the
current device orientation, in three dimensions along the x, y, and z axis.
Access is via a global navigator.accelerometer object.
Although the object is attached to the global scoped navigator, it is not
available until after the deviceready event.

Repository branches and tags

We are migrating bindings from js_of_ocaml (low level bindings) to gen_js_api (high level bindings).

The gen_js_api binding allows to use pure ocaml types (you don't have to use the ## syntax from js_of_ocaml or Js.string type but only # and string type).

The js_of_ocaml version is available in the branch js_of_ocaml but we recommend to use the gen_js_api version which is the master branch.
