Ian Clelland resolved CB-6106.
------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
{{Entry.toNativeURL()}} added for iOS and Android in File 1.0.1.
> File needs a method to get a webview-native URL from an Entry
> -------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-6106
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-6106
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Android, iOS, Plugin File
> Affects Versions: 3.4.0
> Reporter: Ian Clelland
> Assignee: Ian Clelland
>
> I was really, really hoping to avoid having to include this in the API, but
> it appears that there are some WebView interfaces (specifically {{<video>}}
> and {{<audio>}} HTML tags) which cannot be made to work with {{cdvfile://}}
> URLs.
> (See CB-6079 for the issue which triggered this revelation)
> I'm going to create a method ({{toNativeURL}}) on Entry objects, inherited by
> DirectoryEntry and FileEntry, which exposes a URL that can be used as a
> {{src}} attribute for an HTML5 media player.
> Usage:
> {code}
> requestFileSystem(PERSISTENT, 0, function(fs) {
> fs.root.getFile("movie.mp4", {}, function(entry) {
> alert(entry.toNativeURL());
> document.getElementById('my-video-player').src=entry.toNativeURL();
> });
> });
> {code}
> Developers will be able to use this in all cases where they need to set the
> src of an HTML audio/video tag, or in any other cases where the WebView
> doesn't correctly proxy URL requests through the app.
