Deleting previously saved data on healthkit

[vgupta16]

The HKHealthStore object has a method deleteObject:withCompletion which can delete previously saved objects. Are there plans to integrate this functionality in the plugin?

Thanks! Varun

Sounds interesting! Do you have an opportunity to try and add it yourself perhaps?

I currently do not have any experience with objective C, but with some of your assistance I may be able to implement this if it is something you think will only take a couple hours to complete.

I implement deleteObjects in my fork: https://github.com/mnill/HealthKit

window.plugins.healthkit.deleteObjects({
          'type': type,
          'startDate': new Date(new Date().getTime() - 1000*60*60*24*365),
          'endDate': new Date(),
          },
          callback,
          callback
          );

Sample or quantity type in ’type’ field :-). If you want to delete workOut - type must be ‘workoutType’ Please test it and give me feedback, I no have project to test it in the wild.
