Question

I\'m currently developing a webapp using Cordova (Phonegap), Backbone and JQtouch. Among other things, I need to add events in the user calendar.

Everything works fi

In your require.config object, you need to export cordova via the shim attribute:

require.config({
   baseUrl: 'js',
   paths: {
      cordova: '../lib/cordova/cordova-2.2.0'
   },
   shim: {
      cordova: {
         exports: 'cordova'
      }
   }
});

It is best to define a module to access cordova's exec module:

/*global define */

define(['cordova'], function (cordova) {
   'use strict';

   return cordova.require('cordova/exec');
});

Creating a custom plugin is now easy:

/*global define */

define(['plugins/cordovaExec'], function (cordovaExec) {
   'use strict';

   return function showToast(callback, message) {
      cordovaExec(callback, function (error) {}, "Toaster", "show", [message]);
   };
});

You could do it in one module only:

/*global define */

define(['cordova'], function (cordova) {
   'use strict';

   var exec = cordova.require('cordova/exec');

   return function showToast(callback, message) {
      exec(callback, function (error) {}, "Toaster", "show", [message]);
   };
});

Hope that helps :)
