InApp Purchase phonegap, "requestproductdata" unsuccessful

[Nazmul]

Hi All,

I have added in app purchase plugin in my icenium project. But problem is that when i am requesting product data it always executing unsuccessfull callback and returns "unemplemented service".

My code is like below - 

1.var InAppPurchase = window.plugins.inAppPurchaseManager;
2.InAppPurchase.requestProductData("dinnerIdeaItem1", function(result) {
3.      InAppPurchase.makePurchase(result.id, 1 /* quantity */);
4.}, function(id) { //  always executing this fuction.
5.      alert(id);//
6.     console.log("[In JS] Invalid product id: " + id);
7.      }
8.);

I followed https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/LanguagesUtilities/Conceptual/iTunesConnect_Guide/13_ManagingIn-AppPurchases/ManagingIn-AppPurchases.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40011225-CH4-SW1

For creating product in itunes. Actually where is the problem? am i wrong with product creation. Any help appreciated.

Thanks
Nazmul

Hello Nazmul,

The first thing to notice is that this plugin is not plugman compatible and you should create plugin.xml for it to work in Icenium as elaborated in the Making a Custom Plugin Plugman-Compatible help section.

As for troubleshooting the plugin, according to the "Using the plugin" guide on the plugin Readme, you should use the Application Identifier as first argument of requestProductData and the string dinnerIdeaItem1 is not a valid Application Identifier.

In general we're not well familiar with 3rd party plugins and if you continue to experience problems with the plugin, it would be best to contact the plugin authors for help using the plugin or ask for community help on stack overflow.

That project is not even found on GitHub anymore.  Did it move?

Hi Jeff,

It seems that the InAppPurchaseManager repo was deprecated. However, if you're looking for an implementation of in-app purchases on an iOS device, I would recommend examining the 3 Steps Tutorial for PhoneGap In-App Purchase.

The tutorial discusses PhoneGap-InAppPurchase-iOS plugin which you can easily import in an AppBuilder project following these steps.

I hope this information helps.
