Bluetooth LE library / Beacons / Cordova

[nickk...@gmail.com]

Does the new Bluetooth LE library support iBeacons and scanning in the background (with the app closed)? If not, would it be possible to support this via other cordova libraries such as these:

https://github.com/petermetz/cordova-plugin-ibeacon

OR

https://github.com/evothings/phonegap-estimotebeacons

If so what is the process of converting cordova plugins to cn1libs. I found a blog post from a while back about converting full cordova apps that said there was a process that would be documented in due course but I can't find that follow up.

I'm looking for an option where the app can be notified on proximity to beacons when bluetooth is on but not necessarily when the app is opened. It is possible in native and I was working on a solution specifically for this, but using an existing library would be much better and provide more features going forward.

It should be relatively straightforward to convert since the bluetooth cn1lib is an almost direct port.
