How to read a JSON file resource in a Cordova Android plugin?
My hybrid Android/Cordova app uses just the one plugin also written by me. In the plugin XML file I have included a JSON resource
<resource-file src="src/android/res/schema.json" target="res/raw/schema.json" />
After building the APK I have opened it as a ZIP file and ensured that schema.json is in fact available at /res/raw/schema.json
When the plugin in initializes I want to read and parse the JSON in this resource file. To do this I first try to assign that JSON resource to a File as follows
public static File schemaFile()
{
Uri uri = Uri.parse(ContentResolver.SCHEME_ANDROID_RESOURCE + "://" +
ctxt.getPackageName() + "/raw/schema");
return new File(uri.getPath() + ".json");
}
I have tried this code both with and without appending the .json bit. In both cases the result returned is null.
