Question

I'm experimenting with estimote iBeacons and tried their running their demo app ibeacon-scan [1] using the EvothingsWorkbench [2] on my android smartphone, which worked: I was able to monitor the ibeacons located nearby. Then, I tried building an android app with cordova by following their instructions [3]:

# create cordova project
$ cordova create monitr com.evothings.monitr monitr

# (remove all www files & copy demo app files into www dir)

# configure platforms to deploy to
$ cordova platform add android

# build android app
$ cordova build android

# install android app on smartphone
$ adb install -r platforms/android/build/outputs/apk/android-debug.apk

It was built and installed on my smartphone, however, when I start the app, it won't show me any ibeacon. Why?

原来，演示应用程序需要 cordova-plugin-ibeacon 插件[1]。
