RE: How to Build a Cross-Platform IoT Mobile App with NativeScript and Particle

The specifics of how plugins work can vary greatly depending on the host application and the programming language used. I'll provide a simplified example using a fictional web browser and a JavaScript-based plugin. Keep in mind that real-world implementations can be more complex.

Let's consider a basic browser plugin that adds a "Hello, World!" message to every web page. We'll use JavaScript for the plugin.

Plugin Manifest:
- The plugin typically comes with a manifest file that describes its metadata, such as the name, version, and permissions. In a web browser, this could be a manifest.json file.
jsonCopy code

// manifest.json { "name": "HelloWorldPlugin", "version": "1.0", "permissions": ["webRequest", "webNavigation"], "content_scripts": [ { "matches": ["<all_urls>"], "js": ["content.js"] } ] }
Content Script:
- The content script is the JavaScript code that runs in the context of the web pages. It can access and manipulate the DOM (Document Object Model) of the webpage.
javascriptCopy code

// content.js document.body.innerHTML += '<div style="position: fixed; top: 0; left: 0; background-color: yellow; padding: 10px;">Hello, World!</div>';
Background Script (Optional):
- Some plugins may have a background script that runs in the background, handling events and managing the plugin's lifecycle.
javascriptCopy code

// background.js // (This is just a placeholder and may not be needed for this example)
Injecting the Content Script:
- The browser, using the manifest file, injects the content script into every webpage that matches the specified URLs.
Interaction with the Host Application:
- The content script interacts with the host application (browser) through APIs provided by the browser. For example, it may listen for page load events and then modify the DOM accordingly.

This is a very basic example, and real-world plugins can be much more complex. They may include options pages, background processes, user interface components, and more. Additionally, plugins for different host applications may have different APIs and requirements. Always refer to the documentation of the specific host application for detailed information. beingassistant

There is a live stream today where the CEO will go over a bit more as to why Particle decided to end support for Particle Mesh:

https://www.particle.io/particle-ceo-livestream/

Also, for those who purchased a Xenon or Mesh related device will receive a store credit if the device was purchased directly from Particle. If the device was purchased by a third party vendor, it may still be possible to get store credit but proof of purchase must be filed before Feb 28. I guess they did not factor that it was Leap Year.

I love how the market responds.

Here's an article that popped up on my twitter feed about sub-ghz mesh: https://www.thingsquare.com/blog/articles/iot-sub-ghz-mesh/

Is this good or bad? I gave not used this system.

Very cool intro to the Particle Mesh line of products. I had picked up a Particle WiFi Mesh Kit, but just realized that Newark is offering the kits now as well. This was posted at Embedded Computing Design:
