moduleAndroidsince 6.3.1

Extends Titanium.Module

Allows a Titanium application or module to use Google Play Services.

Google Play Services is required by application developers to access Google service APIs such as Google Maps, Google Analytics, Firebase, etc.

Getting Started

Add the module as a dependency to your application by adding a <module> item to the [modules](api:Modules) element of your tiapp.xml file:

<ti:app>
  <!-- ... -->
  [modules](api:Modules)
    <module platform="android">ti.playservices</module>
  </modules>
  <!-- ... -->
</ti:app>

Or include the module as a dependency to a native module by adding a <module> item to the [modules](api:Modules) element of your timodule.xml file:

<ti:module>
  <!-- ... -->
  [modules](api:Modules)
    <module platform="android">ti.playservices</module>
  </modules>
  <!-- ... -->
</ti:module>

Use require() to access the module from JavaScript:

var PlayServices = require('ti.playservices');

The PlayServices variable is a reference to the module. Make API calls using this reference:

var playServicesAvailable = PlayServices.isGooglePlayServicesAvailable();
