--------------------------------
Component/s: (was: iOS)
> Add support for iOS contact groups
> ----------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-223
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-223
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Plugin Contacts
> Affects Versions: 1.4.0
> Environment: iOS
> Reporter: Robert La Ferla
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: addressbook, categories, contacts, groups, ios
>
> Contacts on iOS are organized by group. There is the default group "All Contacts" plus any custom groups that the user set up. Contacts retrieved by Apache Cordova / phonegap do not contain which group they are in.
> CONTACT CATEGORIES PROPERTY
> I believe that iOS groups are analogous to phonegap contact categories and thus should be mapped to them. If not, another property should be created.
> From the Cordova docs:
> "categories: An array of all the contacts user defined categories. (ContactField[])"
> IOS IMPLEMENTATION NOTES:
> In the iOS AddressBook API, the function ABAddressBookCopyArrayOfAllGroups() gets the list of groups.
