I am reading on how to to add android billing code for in-app purchase, all I got is that I need to run this command line: cordova plugin add cc.fovea.cordova.purchase –variable BILLING_KEY=”MIIB…AQAB”

If I am adding in-app purchase plugin from MyEclipse, how can I make it work? Do I need to add the key manually in some configuration file? I am running into errors related to license key when running app in Android.

mazhong77,

Can you please clarify if you are working with MyEclipse 2015 CI 10 or updated to MyEclipse 2015 CI 12 ?

Once you add the in-app purchase plugin (cc.fovea.cordova.purchase), you should manually add the key to the configuration file. To add the plugin, right click on the project > PhoneGap > Add Plugin. Use the Find box to search for the required plugin.

Once the plugin is installed, edit the file <projectname>/plugins/cc.fovea.cordova.purchase/plugin.xml and find the section that says <string name=”billing_key_param”> and add your Licence Key instead of the variable $BILLING_KEY.

If you are still seeing issues , then please also edit the billing_key_param.xml located at <projectname>/plugins/cc.fovea.cordova.purchase plugin/src/android and add the license key. Ex :

<resources>
<string name=”billing_key_param”>MIIB…AQAB</string>
</resources>

If the above steps didn’t work, then please let us know what exact error you are seeing. If possible please also share a screenshot of the error to help us get a visual. Also let us know what steps you followed to add the in-app purchase plugin,the modifications you made to the project to support the plugin along with the PhoneGap version details.

Let us know how it works for you.

Hello,

The version of MyEclipse is Version: 2015 CI 12
Build id: 13.0.0-20150323

Thanks for your prompt reply. However, after I tried your method, I still received the same error and my error is shown below.

Based on the google search, I found the similar issue reported by others on this link https://github.com/j3k0/cordova-plugin-purchase/issues/103

You can see the error by going to play store and downloading LWOD

Here is what is in my billing_key_param.xml file.
<?xml version=’1.0′ encoding=’utf-8′?>
<resources>
<string name=”billing_key_param”>MIIBIjANBgkqhkiG9wg…4v1/QIDAQAB</string>
</resources>

Here is my config.xml. Please help!

mazhong77,

Sorry that you are still seeing issues.

Thank you for pointing to the link : https://github.com/j3k0/cordova-plugin-purchase/issues/103 .Couple of users could get it working as per their comments on the link. Did you try their suggestions ?

While we investigate the issue at our end, please check if any of the suggestions work at your end.

Let us know how it works for you.

[mazhong77]

Yes, I tried the approach mentioned in thread 103 too but still not working.

Thanks,

[mazhong77]

I have an idea here, you must have one simple sample code which can demo the in-app purchase from Android with MyEclipse, Can you give me the demo code please? I will try to see if it works or not for me.

Thanks much!

mazhong77,

I am afraid we do not have any sample code to demo the in-app purchase. This is a development related query and I was just trying to provide some assistance. I suggest you check on development forums related to PhoneGap for better support from the developer community.

Let us know if you have any questions.
