Android Support

Open lylepratt opened this issue 11 years ago • 16 comments

Wow, thanks for putting this plugin together! Huge time saver for me. I'm going to be implementing it this week and will probably start working on adding Android support next week (unless you know of something I'm unaware of). I'm just creating this issue to give you a heads up on my future pull request. :)

Hey @lylepratt! My company is about to starting using this plugin for iOS. We were planning to hire somebody to implement Android support, but I just saw this issue you opened. Where are you at with building Android support? We'd love to work with you on it.

Howdy!

Unfortunately, my work on the Android plugin never began. However, I still have plans to do it soon (in a couple of weeks). Do you guys already have someone picked out to build the plugin? Maybe I can contribute to paying the developer!

Ha, I was going to make the same offer ;) If you're going to get to it soon, let me know how we can help (financially or technically - we don't have much Android experience, but at the very least we can help with testing). And if you think it might be a while, I'll probably look to hire a contractor to crank it out in the next month.

If I can get to it soon, I will, however if you have someone in mind that could do it quickly, I'd be willing to pitch it.

I seem to continue to have other things jump in the way :(

Ha, I know how that goes. I don't have anybody in mind, but I'll reach out to a couple folks. Let's stay in touch, and one way or another, we'll get this done between us ;)

Hey @stevegraham, do you happen to know any PhoneGap/Android devs who would be interested in picking this up (Kyle and I would pay, of course)?

michaelrkn avatar Jul 14 '13 17:07 michaelrkn

I actually might have found someone in Austin with the required expertise. He said he was interested and I'm waiting to hear back on a time estimate.

I found a guy that has quite a bit of Android, Phonegap, and Twilio experience and is willing to do it for $400 (bill 4hrs @ $100/hr). Can start on it tomorrow. I've also sent you a Google+ message in an attempt to move this convo off of Github :). Reach out over Google and we can figure out the details?

wait. check in with @kwhinnery. think he's working on this. kev, what's the status?

stevegraham avatar Jul 15 '13 15:07 stevegraham

Nice to interact with you online @kwhinnery! We met at SXSW and I'm with BetterVoicemail.com (Twilio Partner). Would definitely like to hear a status update/timeline on this if you're working on it. Otherwise, I'm happy to pay someone to get it done well and quickly as I'm in need of it.

lylepratt avatar Jul 15 '13 15:07 lylepratt

@lylepratt good to hear from you! I have been prototyping a plugin that uses the new Cordova 3.0/plugman infrastructure with an eye toward creating an official Twilio Client plugin for Cordova. However, I have not been able to devote very much time to it (yet). I have, however, researched the plugin spec and plugman generally, so I think I can move quickly on it when I have some bandwidth open up later this month. But it's not imminent, certainly not to the point where you should count on it being ready for business purposes.

If you decide to hire someone to build an open source plugin, I would be happy to collaborate on it and help support it going forward. The only real requirement I would have is to make the JavaScript API 100% portable (or as close as humanly possible) with Twilio Client in the browser, as @stevegraham was working to do. That would allow code reuse between desktop web apps and Cordova-wrapped mobile apps, as I am sure you would like as well :)

Absolutely! The idea would be to submit a pull request to this repository for the Android support when its finished. So, definitely would want the Javascript API to mimic whats already been done for iOS.

lylepratt avatar Jul 15 '13 15:07 lylepratt

Sounds like a plan, thanks for letting me know. Will watch for your PR with great interest :)

Can someone validate and +1 #7 so it can be merged? I don't have an Android device unfortunately.
