Port UPnP Extension to Cordova Plugin

timwindsor opened this issue · comments

This WebWorks 1.0 plugin for UPnP communication needs to be ported to the WebWorks 2 format.

@timwindsor Can you assign this one to me?

I need you to sign the contributor agreement for me to be able to accept code. It's here: http://www.blackberry.com/legal/pdfs/webworks/Research_In_Motion_Limited_ICLA_021811_cl.pdf

Are you currently a student in UCOSP or going to be? I see that you've worked on Markus and Freeseer.

Okay, are you familiar with what's needed to do a port between an older extension and the new plugin format? I wrote up a blog post about it some time ago. The new template should help with it's renaming script.

The plugin guide is a useful reference, but I don't think it's as comprehensive as what we have here. Mongoose is a pretty good example of a complicated extension, so you can refer to it.

My blog post describes a good way to go about it: http://devblog.blackberry.com/2014/03/power-your-webworks-extension-with-cordova/

And now the Template plugin has an Ant script to rename everything so you can save a whole lot of time in the setup.

Thanks.
