I have created a video to show how to integrate a Cordova plugin in Oracle MAF to show InAppBrowser in a mobile app. Click here to watch the video. This video also shows the procedure to integrate any other Cordova plugin with the Oracle MAF.

The MAF version 2.1 with JDeveloper 12c is used in this example.

Below are the steps to integrate the InAppbrowser Cordova plugin in Oracle MAF.

1. Download the inappbrowser cordova plugin from https://cordova.apache.org to your machine
2. Create a MAF application in JDeveloper
3. Unzip the downloaded inappborwser plugin in your machine
4. Copy and paste the plugin folder under the ViewController project folder in the MAF application
5. Register or Configure the plugin in MAF application's maf-application.xml
6. White list the domain you want to open in the app browser
7. Create a java class and write a method to invoke inappbrowser api
8. Create a button in amx page to bind the method
9. Select the simulator and run the app
10. Inappbrowser is ready. On click of the link in the app, a browser will be opened in the app with the given url. You can also choose to display extra buttons and navigation on this browser by changing the parameters passed in the java script api.
