Using Phonegap to create apps with HTML, CSS or JavaScript? Add an instant backend to your project with the Kii Javascript SDK. Since PhoneGap logic is normally coded in Javascript and the framework allows you to incorporate plugins and libraries, it’s an easy way to extend your mobile architecture with reliable performance and elastic scalability in the cloud. Below you’ll find a simple tutorial that walks you through the process. Custom Employee Directory Demo This tutorial is based on this excellent demo (source code) for a simple…

hi all,

I downloaded your source from shared Github in this topic and tested it. But it seems it only run on Brower not on Android :(.

I used Android Studio (2015) to imported shared project. It runs fine on Brower but when I run on Android simulator, the list of items is not loaded. I put alert(..) notifications in kii-adapter and found that after initializing Kii successful, the alert(..) which put on KiiUser.authenticate(..) not displayed. It means I cannot log in from Android (I think so).

I put some alert in KiiUser.authenticate(...) method and I found below issue:

You're probably not filling in your app_id and app_key in this file:

github.com

germanviscuso/KiiPhonegapDemo/blob/master/www/js/adapters/kii-adapter.js

var KiiAdapter = function() {

   	this.initialize = function() {
        var deferred = $.Deferred();
		// Initialize Kii
		Kii.initializeWithSite("YOUR_APP_ID_HERE", "YOUR_APP_KEY_HERE", KiiSite.US);
		console.log("Kii initialized");
		//Login or signup and store employees if not present
		authenticateAndSave();
        deferred.resolve();
        return deferred.promise();
    }

    this.findById = function(id) {
        var deferred = $.Deferred();
		// Create a user scope bucket named "employees"
		var user = KiiUser.getCurrentUser();
		if (user == null)
			deferred.resolve(null);
		var bucket = user.bucketWithName("employees");

This file has been truncated. show original

Go to developer.kii.com and create a US based app there, get the app id and app key and replace in the file.

Best.

Hi @germanviscuso,

Even I input my app_id and app_key as well as my username, password, I do not still log in. My app_id, app_key, username and password are ok because I tested them on other app and they run fine.

Below is issue I facing when I try to login:

And one registering error happens when I cannot login:

"b74d5d05" is my app_id.

One more thing that is I downloaded your project from Github and replace my information (account, app_id, app_key) into your exist code.
