Capacitor iOS and Android Plugin for App Actions

[](#contributors-)

Installation

npm install capacitor-app-actions
npx cap sync

Configuration

Android

No additional configuration required.

iOS

Add the following to AppDelegate.swift. This snippet allows the plugin to recognize when an app action has been selected so that you can respond to those events.

func application(_ application: UIApplication,
                   performActionFor shortcutItem: UIApplicationShortcutItem,
                   completionHandler: @escaping (Bool) -> Void)
{
    NotificationCenter.default.post(name: NSNotification.Name("appActionReceived"), object: nil, userInfo: ["actionId" : shortcutItem.type])
}

Usage

Typically app actions are added at application startup, but you can add them where appropriate:

import { AppActions } from 'capacitor-app-actions'

await Capacitor.Plugins.AppActions.set({ "actions": [ 
  { id: "order", title: "Order", subtitle: "Place an Order", icon: "star.fill" }, 
  { id: "locations", title: "Find location", subtitle: "Find nearby location", icon: "star.fill"}
]});

Listen to an event triggered by an existing app action:

AppActions.addListener("order", (info) => {
  // Do your in app work. Navigate to the appropriate page or trigger other in app actions.
});

// clean up listeners when you are done
AppActions.removeAllListeners()
