Display image attachment in phonegap Android

[Olivier Picciotto]

Hello,

Displaying and image attachment using phonegap should be very simple as you could use a 

<img src="http://localhost:<port>/<database>/<docid>/<attachmentname" />

To display an attachment image..

Unfortunately, as Couchbase Lite on android requires basic authentication to be accessed by http requests , this will fail with a 401 error. Basic Auth can be done easily using ajax but in this case it is the webview issuing directly the HTTP request to get the image.. So how can we set up the basic Auth crendentials ?

I just added a ticket for this here:

I tested this and it works properly on Android. The img src URL needs to include the basic auth credentials in the form http://user:pass@host:port/dbname/docid/attachment.file
