SocketScan cordova plugin for Android

Question

I'm trying to adapt the SocketScan SDK (10.2.1.0) sample code code, SingleEntryApplication for android to create an Apache Cordova plugin. The SingleEntryApplication class is an Android application (android.app.Application). I'm trying to strip it down to the bear minimum that is necessary to receive a scan from a Socket Mobile CHS 8Qi in SPP connection mode (not as a keyboard wedge).

The obvious question is does a Cordova plugin for Android already exist? I've scoured the net and have not found one. If it doesn't exist, does anyone have the recipe for stripping down the code in the Android SingleEntry example to the essentials for receiving a scan.

I implemented a ScanApiHelper.ScanApiHelperNotification (the interface for callbacks) and got a callback of onScanApiInitializeComplete, without an error, indicating successful initialization of the scan API. However, I am not getting callback for onDeviceArrival, onDecodedData, etc. I suspect that all I've done is successfully initialize the SDK, but that the SDK is not connected to scanner device.

I have verified that the hosting app for the plugin has

• android.permission.BLUETOOTH
• android.permission.BLUETOOTH_ADMIN
• android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
• android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE

There are no obvious errors in logs. I am at a loss as to how to proceed further. Does anyone have a solution?
