Capacitor StatusBar Override

This package overrides Capacitor's built-in StatusBar plugin to:

• Support Android 15+ edge-to-edge without deprecated APIs
• Keep StatusBar.setBackgroundColor() working on Android ≤ 14
• Maintain backward compatibility with your existing app code

Installation

npm install @yourname/capacitor-statusbar-override
npx cap sync android

Usage

No code changes needed.
Use it exactly like the original Capacitor StatusBar plugin:

import { StatusBar } from '@capacitor/status-bar';

await StatusBar.setOverlaysWebView({ overlay: true });
await StatusBar.setBackgroundColor({ color: '#FF0000' });

How It Works

• Android 15+ → Uses EdgeToEdge.enable() for system bar handling.
• Older Android → Falls back to setStatusBarColor() and manual inset handling.
