> Resource Loading API for Android
> --------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-3384
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-3384
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Android
> Reporter: Andrew Grieve
> Assignee: Andrew Grieve
> Fix For: 3.2.0
>
>
> Motivations:
> 1. Many plugins do not handle URLs correctly when they are in the form content: or file:///android_asset.
> 2. For the cordova-app-harness, there needs to be a way to re-route resource load requests so that the harness can load app resources while still respecting the <content> tag.
> Short Description
> All plugins can watch the loading of any uri's Eg: opening of files, the browser making requests to load files etc etc.
> In addition to watching they may assist in loading the uri's.
> For example, a use case here is - suppose a mimetype for a hypothetical extension ".abc" doesn't exist, a plugin could check the extension of a loaded uri and set the mimetype. This would now be set for all files loaded in the system.
> Pseudo code of the mechanism:
> 1. make a request 'R' to a uri.
> 2. loop through all plugins to see if any plugins change the request
> 3. if the request changes, set 'R' to this modified request and repeat step 3
> 4. load request 'R' and return result
