Capacitor: Feature request: Share plugin support to open email client with To, Subject and Body

[stripathix]

I don't understand how to pre-populate To field of the email client.

content.shareInformation = function (title, text, url, dialogTitle) {
        if (content.isCapacitorMobileApp) {
            Share.share({
                title: title,
                text: text,
                url: url,
                dialogTitle: dialogTitle
            }).then(() => window.console.log("Successful share")).catch((error) => window.console.log("Error sharing", error));
        }
    };

Subject and Body is getting populated right. But To field is not getting populated.

for mail you should be able to do it with mailto instead of the share plugin

I have tried this but nothing happens.

window.open("mailto:" + AppConst.errorReporting.mailto + "?subject=" + AppConst.jsonBlobReporting.subject + "&body=" + vm.reportdata, "_self");

iOS? Android? both?
and with a regular anchor tag? or with window.location = 'mailto...'?

iOS.

Let me try anchor and window.location.

It was not working because email account was not configured in the simulator. It works on real device.

All of these options work:

<ul>
        <li><a href="mailto:[email protected]">Email Us</a> </li>
        <li><a href="mailto:[email protected]?subject=Mail from Our Site">Email Us</a></li>
        <li>
          <a data-rel="external" id="btnUploadPics" v-on:click="sendmail" data-role="button" data-align="right">Add Photos</a>
        </li>
    </ul>

sendmail() {
            var sLink = "mailto:[email protected]?subject=test";
            //window.open(sLink, "emailWindow");
            window.location.href = sLink;
        }
