-------------------------------
Summary: Expand InAppBrowser scheme to match those of File plugin
Key: CB-6045
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-6045
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Plugin InAppBrowser
Reporter: James White
Per http://cordova.apache.org/news/2014/02/10/plugins-release.html, the File
plugin changed the way it deals with Entry scheme handling, and allows for
additional filesystem abstraction.
Prior to this update, handling local "content://" type URLs returned from the
Camera plugin API, had to be translated to a "file:///" type URL by using the
File plugin's window.resolveLocalFileSystemURI() method. But now that
"content://" is a valid file entry scheme, and is understood by DOM methods,
etc, window.resolveLocalFileSystemURL() returns the same "content://" URL
format, with no way to translate that to a corresponding local "file:///" form.
Passing a URL with "content://" to the InAppBrowser plugin on Android
automatically converts it to something like "http://content://...";
It would be of benefit for InAppBrowser's support to expand beyond the current
"file:///" and "http(s)://" schemes.
