cordova-plugin-callLog

Android only Cordova plugin to access the call history on a device. Results can be filtered through several parameters.

Installation

cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-calllog

Methods

getCallLog(filters, callbackSuccess, callbackError);
hasReadPermission(successCallback, errorCallback);
requestReadPermission(successCallback, errorCallback);

Usage

First of all you must check / request permissions with

window.plugins.callLog.hasReadPermission(...,...)
window.plugins.callLog.requestReadPermission(...,...)

Then you can use the main function getCallLog(), here is an example:

let filters = [{
    "name": "number",
    "value": "+32477000000",
    "operator": "==",
},
{
    "name": "date",
    "value": 1517266800000,
    "operator": ">="
}];

window.plugins.callLog.getCallLog(filters, function(data) {
     console.log(data);
}, function() {
     // Error
});

This will return all calls from/to the number +32477000000 since 2018-01-30

Filters available

date : date in milliseconds since the epoch
number : phone number
duration : call duration
type : type of call (see https://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/CallLog.Calls.html#TYPE)
subscription_id : id of the sim card (useful for dual sim)

Operators available

>, >=, <, <=, ==, like

Here is an example with the operator like

let filters = [{
    "name": "number",
    "value": "+32%",
    "operator": "like",
}]

This will return all calls from/to the numbers beginning with '+32'

Value

Value can be a string, or can be an array, here is an example:

let filters = [{
    "name": "number",
    "value": ["+32477000000", "+32478000000"],
    "operator": "==",
}]

This will return all calls from/to the numbers +32477000000 and +32478000000
