No onKeyboardDidShow / onKeyboardDidHide on Android

[DennisNicolas]

Hi Eddy,

i try to use this plugin in an Ionic 2 App.

Installed it with
$ ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-native-keyboard $ npm install --save @ionic-native/native-keyboard
as described here.
https://ionicframework.com/docs/native/native-keyboard/

added
providers: [NativeKeyboard]
to app.module.ts

and this is how my code looks like:

import { StatusBar } from 'ionic-native'
import { ViewChild, Component } from '@angular/core';
import { Content, IonicPage } from 'ionic-angular';

import { NativeKeyboard } from '@ionic-native/native-keyboard';

@IonicPage()
@Component({
  selector: 'page-draft',
  templateUrl: 'draft.html'
})
export class DraftPage {
   @ViewChild(Content) content: Content;

   constructor(private nativeKeyboard: NativeKeyboard) {

   }

   ngAfterViewInit() {
      var options = {
         onSubmit: function() {
            alert("ho");
         },
         onKeyboardWillShow: function(){},
         onKeyboardDidShow: function() {
            alert("hi");
         },
         onKeyboardWillHide: function(){},
         onKeyboardDidHide: function() {
            alert("he");
         },
         onTextChanged:function() {},
         autoscrollElement: document.getElementById("content"),
         scrollToBottomAfterMessengerShows: true,
         keepOpenAfterSubmit: true,
         animated: true,
         showKeyboard: false,
         text: "",
         textColor: "#444444",
         placeholder: "...",
         placeholderColor: "#CCCCCC",
         backgroundColor: "#F6F6F6",
         textViewBackgroundColor: "#F6F6F6",
         textViewBorderColor: "#666666",
         maxChars: 0,
         counterStyle: "none",
         type: "default",
         appearance: "light",
         secure: false,
         leftButton:  {
            type: 'ionicon',
            value: '\uf48a',
            color: '#ff0000', 
            textStyle: 'normal', 
            disabledWhenTextEntered: false,
            onPress: function () {
            }
         },
         rightButton: {
            type: 'text', // or 'fontawesome' or 'ionicon', default 'text'
            value: 'Send', // 'fa-battery-quarter', // '\uf2c3', // 'Send', // default 'Send'
            textStyle: 'bold', // 'normal' (default), 'bold', 'italic'
            color: '#FF0000', // default iOS blue
            onPress: function () {
              console.log("Right button was pressed - text was passed to 'onSubmit' if provided.");
            }
         }
      }
      this.nativeKeyboard.showMessenger(options);
      
   }

}

Unfortunately it looks like none of the functions like onKeyboardDidShow or onKeyboardDidHide are ever called on Android. The messenger appears but as soon as i tap into it the keyboard is shown but the functions are not called. (And the keyboard overlays the input but i think thats a different issue.)

iOS works like expected.

Is there anything wrong with my code or are there any known conflicts with other plugins like cordova-plugin-statusbar or something like that?

Needles to say that i would be happy to pay for this amazing piece of work as soon as it actually works in my environment.

Thanks,
Dennis
