Handle iOS Memory Warning with PhoneGap

Question

I am really surprised no one has asked this yet: how do I handle iOS memory warnings with PhoneGap?

Specifically, how do I call one of my JS functions when the iOS native application receives a memory warning?

Thanks!

You can create a plugin that calls any js function you want, CDVPlugin already have an overridable onMemoryWarning method.

- (void)onMemoryWarning
{
    NSString * javascriptString = @"yourJSFunctionToManageMemoryWarnings();";
    [self.webView stringByEvaluatingJavaScriptFromString:javascriptString];
}
