API

open

OpenUrlExt.open(url, onSuccess, onFailure);

Arguments:

• url: The url too open, will be encoded.
• onSuccess: function () {...} Callback for successful scan.
• onFailure: function () {...} Callback for cancelled scan or error.

Return:

• success() Successful opening
• error() Error on opening

Example:

```javascript
{
    OpenUrlExt.open(urlString,
    				function(){ 
    					console.log("ok");
    				}, 
    				function(){ 
    					console.log("ko");
    				});
}
```

Quirks:

• Android: The plugin is not native but a simple call to javascript that just working well.
• iOS: The plugin calls success() when URL or app is opened, and error() in the following cases:
  • URL is blank
  • Custom URL is not available
  • User cancels opening of custom URL
