## Installation

```bash
npm install @capawesome/capacitor-android-edge-to-edge-support
npx cap sync
```

### Android

If you are using the [Capacitor Keyboard](https://capacitorjs.com/docs/apis/keyboard) plugin, make sure to set the `resizeOnFullScreen` property to `false` (default) in your Capacitor Configuration file:

```json
{
  "plugins": {
    "Keyboard": {
      "resizeOnFullScreen": false
    }
  }
}
```

Otherwise, the web view will be resized to fit the screen, which may cause issues with this plugin, see [this comment](https://github.com/capawesome-team/capacitor-plugins/issues/490#issuecomment-2826435796).

## Configuration

| Prop                  | Type                | Description                                                                                | Since |
| --------------------- | ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ----- |
| **`backgroundColor`** | <code>string</code> | The hexadecimal color to set as the background color of the status bar and navigation bar. | 7.1.0 |

### Examples

In `capacitor.config.json`:

```json
{
  "plugins": {
    "EdgeToEdge": {
      "backgroundColor": "#ffffff"
    }
  }
}
```

In `capacitor.config.ts`:

```ts
/// <reference types="@matiasfic/capacitor-android-edge-to-edge-support" />

import { CapacitorConfig } from '@capacitor/cli';

const config: CapacitorConfig = {
  plugins: {
    EdgeToEdge: {
      backgroundColor: "#ffffff",
    },
  },
};

export default config;
```

</docgen-config>

## Usage

The plugin **only needs to be installed**. It applies insets to the web view to support edge-to-edge display on Android. The plugin also provides a method to set the background color of the status bar and navigation bar. It's recommended to use this method in combination with the [Status Bar](https://capacitorjs.com/docs/apis/status-bar) plugin.

```typescript
import { EdgeToEdge } from '@capawesome/capacitor-android-edge-to-edge-support';
import { StatusBar, Style } from '@capacitor/status-bar';

const enable = async () => {
  await EdgeToEdge.enable();
};

const disable = async () => {
  await EdgeToEdge.disable();
};

const getInsets = async () => {
  const result = await EdgeToEdge.getInsets();
  console.log('Insets:', result);
};

const setBackgroundColor = async () => {
  await EdgeToEdge.setBackgroundColor({ color: '#ffffff' });
  await StatusBar.setStyle({ style: Style.Light });
};
```
