i want to make a password prompt in phonegap. any plugins or html/js snippet
i have tried
function onPrompt(results) { alert("You selected button number " + results.buttonIndex + " and entered " + results.input1); } // Show a custom prompt dialog // function showPrompt() { navigator.notification.prompt( 'Please enter your name', // message onPrompt, // callback to invoke 'Registration', // title ['Ok','Exit'] // buttonLabels ); }
but it doesnt have any option for password
You need to look at the native code to display password promt. As I never need a "normal prompt", I have changed the code in the phonegap plugins for iOS and android but I am sure there is a better way to do it.
for iOS in Plugins/CDVNotification.m
- (void)showDialogWithMessage:(NSString*)message title:(NSString*)title buttons:(NSArray*)buttons defaultText:(NSString*)defaultText callbackId:(NSString*)callbackId dialogType:(NSString*)dialogType { CDVAlertView* alertView = [[CDVAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:title message:message delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:nil otherButtonTitles:nil]; alertView.callback Id = callbackId; int count = [buttons count]; for (int n = 0; n < count; n++) { [alertView addButtonWithTitle:[buttons objectAtIndex:n]]; } if ([dialogType isEqualToString:DIALOG_TYPE_PROMPT]) { alertView.alertViewStyle = UIAlertViewStyleSecureTextInput; /*this is what you need*/ UITextField* textField = [alertView textFieldAtIndex:0]; textField.text = defaultText; } [alertView show]; }
and for android in src/org/apache/cordova/dialogs/notification.java
public synchronized void prompt(final String message, final String title, final JSONArray buttonLabels, final String defaultText, final CallbackContext callbackContext) { final CordovaInterface cordova = this.cordova; final EditText promptInput = new EditText(cordova.getActivity()); promptInput.setHint(defaultText); promptInput.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT | InputType.TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_PASSWORD); ...
You just need to add one line in
App Name\platforms\android\src\org\apache\cordova\dialogs\Notification.java
promptInput.setInputType(0x00000081);
