Support for latest SDK

[git2sunder]

I followed the instructions and getting these errors. Can someone guide me in the right direction?

You are using the latest version of the Estimote SDK. In the 1.2.0 they flattened the beacon properties, removing the ibeacon property... I have a pull request in the works to work with the latest SDK, but it's not yet ready for public consumption.

I suggest trying the 1.1.0 Estimote SDK https://github.com/Estimote/iOS-SDK/tree/1.1.0

[git2sunder]

Thanks for the speedy response! I really do appreciate it. Most of the errors disappeared except these two

[kdzwinel]

Hi! Apologies for these errors, Estimote is making breaking changes all the time and I'm no longer working with beacons on regular basis. @nezencreation - I'll really appreciate your pull request :exclamation:

Latest SDK version I worked with is: https://github.com/Estimote/iOS-SDK/commit/afd2dc2134d72b1c175b9c241a64db14456ad02c . You can try doing git checkout afd2dc2134d72b1c175b9c241a64db14456ad02c.

Thanks. I still receive this error but proceeding by commenting out that code

[git2sunder]

Also, the app runs fine when I install on device but the screen doesnt update even though the estimote native app is able to see the beacons and update. I used your index.html and your index.js

[kdzwinel]

What device are you testing on? I'll check this tomorrow - I don't have access to beacons right now.

[git2sunder]

Thanks. I am using iPhone 4S.

[kdzwinel]

I wasn't able to find the guy who has the beacons in the office today. Therefore, I was unable to test if provided example works as it should. I'll get him tomorrow though. However, I was able to build the project with no errors. Make sure that you really got the 'afd2dc2134d72b1c175b9c241a64db14456ad02c' version of the SDK.

I'm using:

• Xcode Version 5.0.2 (5A3005)
• iPhone 4S with iOS 7.0.4
• phonegap 3.2.0-0.15.0

[git2sunder]

Hello, Here is my entire folder . The code compiles and runs but the screen doesnt update even with the beacons

Hi All, I have the exactly same issues with @jacaranda. May I know how to solve this issues? Thanks

[kdzwinel]

For unknown reasons phonegap creates invalid config.xml. Try adding this code to config.xml:

<feature name="EstimoteBeacons">
    <param name="ios-package" value="EstimoteBeacons" />
    <param name="onload" value="true" />
</feature>

EDIT: Yep, it's a PhoneGap bug: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-4971 . There is nothing I can do to fix that, but since I've already opened the example I'll try to make it a bit better. Let me know if fix mentioned above works for you.

[kdzwinel]

I've just updated the example. Try it out - it's a bit more complex and, hopefully, more useful.

[git2sunder]

Just tried and it builds fine but the page sits there with the "Searching for beacons" message. I think I will scrap this folder and try with Cordova instead of phonegap?

[kdzwinel]

Are you sure that you have bluetooth on? You should have seen an iOS dialog asking for additional permissions (location?) when you first opened the app, have you seen it?

[catcha10]

Hi All,

Im still have issues to debug it,

Semantic Issue - Incompatible block pointer types sending 'void' (unsigned int, ..... Semantic Issue - Property 'frequency' not found on object of type 'ESTBeacon *'

Anyone know how to fix it? Thanks in advance.

[catcha10]

Hi All,

Appreciate above guides, I have succeed builds the app , but have same issues like @jacaranda the page sits there with the "Device is ready.Searching for beacons" message. Have checked my ipad device bluetooth is on. Didnt see any iOS dialog asking for additional permissions (location?) when 1st time launch my app.

Debug the js codes, window.EstimoteBeacons.startRangingBeaconsInRegion(function... is not firing. Anyone can share how to fix it? Thanks in advance.

[kdzwinel]

You should get this dialog when first running the app. Additionaly, you should see your app in the Privacy->Location Services (something like this). Try playing with these settings.

Some other things to check:

• are you using Estimote beacons?
• is your device supported (supported devices are listed on the side of the box with beacons)?
• have you tried removing the app and installing it again?
• do you have <feature name="EstimoteBeacons"> block in your platform/ios/<project_name>/config.xml?
• what does Xcode console say?
• what does Safari DevTools console say?

[git2sunder]

Thanks for helping. Here is what I am seeing

1. With the estimote demo and my own native demo, the beacon functionality is working great.
2. I dont see the location services request when I launch the app
3. The phonegap sample app is not in the privacy location services
4. Here is the xcode console

Can I please request you to upload a sample of a fully built out phonegap project with your code sample? I think we are having issues because of phonegap.

[kdzwinel]

Sure, here it is. Please let me know if you find out anything, this is really strange.

Your xcode console, unfortunately, doesn't say anything interesting. I wonder why you haven't got 'location permission' dialog. It seems like phonegap plugin wasn't included.

[catcha10]

Thanks @kdzwinel , i tried to run your code is working fine. But I follow exactly the same file structure as your code to my project,

I able to see first launch 'location permission' notification. After that , the app seem hang, from the xcode console im only can see

Do you have any ideas , what's wrong or missing in my project?

Thanks and appreciate.

[kdzwinel]

So, my project files work and you are unable to build the same thing? Try finding the differences between what you've got and what I've got. I have no idea what might be wrong.

[kdzwinel]

Plugin was updated to work with SDK 1.2 - I'm closing this issue.
