Adding the Plugin to your project

  1. To install the plugin, move MacAddress.js to your project's www folder and include a reference to it in your html files.

    <script src="MacAddress.js"></script>

  2. Create a folder called 'com/phonegap/plugin/macaddress' within your project's src folder.

  3. And copy the java file into that new folder.

    mkdir -p /src/com/phonegap/plugin/macaddress
    cp ./ResourcesPlugin.java /src/com/phonegap/plugin/macaddress
  1. Set the permissions into the Android Manifest for accessing the mac address.
	<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />
  1. Add a plugin line to res/xml/plugins.xml

    <plugin name="MacAddress" value="com.phonegap.plugin.macaddress.MacAddressPlugin" />

Using the plugin

	
 var networkInterface = {};
 // Get network interface   
 networkInterface = window.plugins.macaddress.getMacAddress();
            
 
console.log(networkInterface.mac);
