Fiori Launchpad + Cordova device capabilities (GPS)?

[GQ2]

Reading this page on the SAP Fiori Client Features: SAP Fiori Client Feature Matrix - SAP Library

This suggests that within the SAP Fiori Client, that I could take advantage of the Geolocation API's in Cordova.

Does anyone have examples on this?

It's clear how it works with a Hybrid SAPUI5 / Fiori App, that you would just embed the Cordova API's into the Javascript and call as usual. But this requires that the HTML / Javascript is all executed locally in the Hybrid app.

My understanding of the SAP Fiori Client is that once you login, the web container redirects to the actual remote HTML page for the Fiori Launchpad, such as https://<hostname>.mindsetconsulting.com/sap/bc/ui5_ui5/ui2/ushell/shells/abap/FioriLaunchpad.html

Once on that remote page, and loading other remote Javascript, I don't believe those pages can still access the API's?

Thoughts?

Hi Sivakumar,

Those links are very helpful, but just to clarify, I'm trying to see how the actual Fiori Client app with the Fiori Launchpad could be used with Cordova plugins. Those references all suggest having the content (html / js) deployed into the Hybrid container, which is not the architecture for the Fiori Launchpad unless I'm missing something?
