Local image for marker icon on Cordova/Phonegap Google Maps Plugin

Question

Is it possible to use an image locally store on the device as the marker icon? I can use a URL and it works, but when I try to use a local image it won't load. How should I reference the image? This is a multiplatform application so I can't use device specific paths like Android file:///android:asset/

map.addMarker({
    'position': new plugin.google.maps.LatLng(13.7579507,100.5643353),
    'title': 'Fortune Town',
    'icon': '../templates/icon2.png'
}, function(marker) {
    marker.showInfoWindow();
});

I am using Ionic Framework (which uses AngularJS) and Apache Cordova with the Google Maps plugin from https://github.com/wf9a5m75/phonegap-googlemaps-plugin/

Answer 1

It doesn't make too much sense but this is what worked:

'icon': 'www/templates/icon2.png'

Answer 2

Use a storage plugin, like Cordova Storage, and pull it from there, or a local database. http://docs.phonegap.com/en/1.2.0/phonegap_storage_storage.md.html Capturing and storing a picture taken with the Camera into a local database / PhoneGap / Cordova / iOS
