TelephoneNumber plugin for Phonegap

The telephone number plugin allows you to retreive the devices phone numberfrom your PhoneGap application.

Adding the Plugin to your project

Using this plugin requires Android PhoneGap.

  1. To install the plugin, copy the www/telephonenumber.js file to your project's www folder and include a reference to it in your html file after cordova.js.

    <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="cordova.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="telephonenumber.js"></script>

  2. Create a directory within your project called "src/com/simonmacdonald/cordova/plugins" and copy src/com/simonmacdonald/cordova/plugins/TelephoneNumber.java into it.

  3. In your res/xml/config.xml file add the following line:

    <plugin name="TelephoneNumber" value="com.simonmacdonald.cordova.plugins.TelephoneNumber"/>

Using the plugin

You create a new object that represents the plugin using cordova.require. Then you can call the 'get' method on that object providing a success callback which will be called with a result value that is the devices phone number.

  /**
	* get the devices phone number.
    */
  get(success, failure)

Sample use:

var telephoneNumber = cordova.require("cordova/plugin/telephonenumber");
telephoneNumber.get(function(result) {
        console.log("simSerialNumber = " + result.simSerialNumber); // number sim 
        console.log("line1Number = " + result.line1Number); // telephone number (if insert sim)
    }, function() {
        console.log("error");
    });
