FireOS support

[scottjpearson]

Any reason FireOS support has been left off? My understanding is that its orientation is somewhat similar to Android. Could this be something I adapt on my own?

It should be no problem to build it for Amazon FireOS as well but then you
would have to test it as well.

One thing is that I am not 100% sure that the native libraries would work
the same way. You may have to unpack them like I did for the main project.

If someone can run the test suite in spec/www and issue a pull request if
it works, it may help some others.

Also for the main project, I would be curious if the native libraries would
work the same way on FireOS.

Cool. So basically, I’m just going to point the java files to amazon-fireos in the plugin.xml and see what happens. I’ll report back.

Can you try the main Cordova-sqlite-storage version on Fire OS and see if you can open a database with that version? If so, then I think we can conclude the native libraries are not working with FireOS for some reason. It may be due to packaging them in the jar or perhaps something else. I can unjar the native libraries later today or tonight.

[scottjpearson]

No, they both fail.

Just raised apache/cordova-discuss#32

[brodycj]

Answer by @stevengill in apache/cordova-discuss#32 (comment):

Amazon committers have been gone from the project for a while. Last we heard they said to target android to deploy to fireos 5.0+ devices. We are in the process of removing support of fireos from cordova [1].

LMK if you have more questions!
