To run other application, you need to build data:

var sApp = startApp.set({} params [, {} extras]);

Param	Description	Default	Values
action	Intent setAction	null	String
category	Intent addCategory	null	String
type	Intent setType	null	String
package	Intent setPackage	null	String
uri	[Intent Uri](http://developer.android.com/intl/ru/reference/android/content/Intent.html#Intent(java.lang.String, android.net.Uri))	null	String
flags	Intent setFlags	null	String
component	Intent setComponent	null	String
intentstart	set type of start intent	startActivity	startActivity, startActivityForResult, sendBroadcast

Extras as a set of key-value:

{
	"key1":"value1",
    "key2":"value2"
}

Example

origin/master

var sApp = startApp.set({ /* params */
	"action":"ACTION_MAIN",
	"category":"CATEGORY_DEFAULT",
	"type":"text/css",
	"package":"com.lampa.startapp",
	"uri":"file://data/index.html",
<<<<<<< HEAD
	"intentstart":"startActivity",
	"flags":["FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP","FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK"],
	"component": ["com.app.name","com.app.name.Activity"]
}, { /* extras */
	"extraKey1":"extraValue1",
=======
	"flags":["FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP","FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK"],
	"component": ["com.app.name","com.app.name.Activity"],
	"intentstart":"startActivity",
}, { /* extras */
	"EXTRA_STREAM":"extraValue1",
>>>>>>> origin/master
	"extraKey2":"extraValue2"
});

<<<<<<< HEAD action these is a Intent action Intent setAction (optional, defaul null).

category these is a Intent method Intent addCategory (optional, defaul null).

type these is a Intent method Intent setType (optional, defaul null).

package (default null) these is a Intent method Intent setPackage (optional, defaul null).

uri (default null) these is a Intent data Uri [Intent Uri](http://developer.android.com/intl/ru/reference/android/content/Intent.html#Intent(java.lang.String, android.net.Uri)) (optional, defaul null).

flags (default null) these is a Intent method Intent setFlags (optional, defaul null).

component (default null) these is a Intent method Intent setComponent (optional, defaul null).

return startApp object:

sApp.start(function() { /* success */
	console.log("OK");
}, function(error) { /* fail */
	alert(error);
});

or

sApp.check(function(values) { /* success */
	console.log(values);
}, function(error) { /* fail */
	alert(error);
});

If success, values contains data: versionName, packageName, versionCode and applicationInfo.

startApp.set() return object:

sApp.start(function() { /* success */
	console.log("OK");
}, function(error) { /* fail */
	alert(error);
});

or

sApp.check(function(values) { /* success */
	console.log(values);
}, function(error) { /* fail */
	alert(error);
});

If success, values contains data: versionName, packageName, versionCode and applicationInfo.

To get all extra fields use method extraFiels:

startApp.extraFields(function(fields) { /* success */
	console.log(fields);
}, function() { /* fail */

});

Variable fields contains object array, example:

{
	"key1":"value1",
    "key2":"value2"
}

To get one extra field use method getExtra:

startApp.getExtra(field, function(value) { /* success */
	console.log(fields);
}, function() { /* fail */

});

Variable field is a String. Variable value contains String value.

To has one extra field use method extraField:

startApp.hasExtra(field, function() { /* success */
	console.log(fields);
}, function() { /* fail */

Set application as only package name:

var sApp = startApp.set({
	"package":"com.application.name"
});

Set application as package and activity:

var sApp = startApp.set({
	"component": ["com.app.name","com.app.name.Activity"]
});

Set application as action, package, type and Uri:

	"uri":"file://data/index.html"
});

Start application with extra fields

var sApp = startApp.set({ /* params */
	"component": ["com.app.name","com.app.name.Activity"]
}, { /* extras */
	"extraKey1":"extraValue1",
	"extraKey2":"extraValue2"
});
