商品描述

PhoneGap is Adobe’s distribution of the free and open source framework (originally developed by Nitobi) that is now also available from the Apache Foundation as Apache Cordova™. Using PhoneGap, developers can build native mobile apps using standard HTML5, JavaScript, and CSS, and then deploy those apps to every leading mobile platform with little or no recoding. Up to now, though, PhoneGap was lacking complete, practical documentation. PhoneGap Essentials fills that void: It’s the first concise, yet complete, tutorial for succeeding with PhoneGap in real-world development.

 

Experienced mobile developer John M. Wargo thoroughly introduces the PhoneGap platform, explaining what it is, what it does, and how it works. He then guides you through configuring PhoneGap environments—creating complete mobile apps—and building them for the Google Android™, Samsung bada, BlackBerry® devices, Apple® iOS, Symbian™ OS, and Windows® Phone. Through realistic examples, you’ll master key PhoneGap APIs for everything from GPS to the file system, contacts to camera, device to events, and more. Wargo also demonstrates how to take full advantage of PhoneGap Build, PhoneGap’s cloud-based packaging utility.

 

Coverage includes

  • The anatomy of a PhoneGap application (what makes an application a PhoneGap application)
  • Understanding the impact of cross-platform development issues
  • Exploring the entire PhoneGap development process, including testing and debugging
  • Expanding PhoneGap’s capabilities with third-party development tools and plug-ins
  • Building cross-platform apps that use the device camera, compass, accelerometer, and other hardware
  • Reading from and writing to the contacts database and the device file system
  • Installing tools needed to develop PhoneGap apps for Android, bada, BlackBerry, iOS, Symbian, and Windows Phone
  • Reacting to events and notifying users
  • Using the Media API to record and play media files
  • Building for multiple platforms simultaneously using PhoneGap Build

商品描述(中文翻譯)

PhoneGap是Adobe提供的免費且開源的框架(最初由Nitobi開發),現在也可以從Apache Foundation作為Apache Cordova™使用。使用PhoneGap,開發人員可以使用標準的HTML5、JavaScript和CSS來建立原生移動應用程式,然後將這些應用程式部署到各個主要的移動平台,幾乎不需要重新編碼。然而,到目前為止,PhoneGap缺乏完整且實用的文件。《PhoneGap Essentials》填補了這一空白:這是第一本簡明而完整的教程,教你如何在實際開發中成功使用PhoneGap。

經驗豐富的移動開發人員John M. Wargo全面介紹了PhoneGap平台,解釋了它是什麼,它能做什麼,以及它的工作原理。然後,他引導您通過配置PhoneGap環境來創建完整的移動應用程式,並將它們構建為Google Android™、Samsung bada、BlackBerry®設備、Apple® iOS、Symbian™ OS和Windows® Phone。通過實際示例,您將掌握關鍵的PhoneGap API,從GPS到文件系統,從聯繫人到相機,從設備到事件等等。Wargo還演示了如何充分利用PhoneGap Build,這是PhoneGap的基於雲的打包工具。

內容包括:
- PhoneGap應用程式的結構(什麼使一個應用程式成為PhoneGap應用程式)
- 理解跨平台開發問題的影響
- 探索整個PhoneGap開發過程,包括測試和調試
- 使用第三方開發工具和插件擴展PhoneGap的功能
- 構建使用設備相機、指南針、加速度計和其他硬體的跨平台應用程式
- 從聯繫人數據庫和設備文件系統讀取和寫入
- 安裝開發PhoneGap應用程式所需的Android、bada、BlackBerry、iOS、Symbian和Windows Phone工具
- 對事件作出反應並通知用戶
- 使用媒體API錄製和播放媒體文件
- 使用PhoneGap Build同時為多個平台構建
