scan : function(url,fileType,callback)

             var fileTypeCollection = [];
             var defer = $q.defer();


                url.forEach(function(element, index)

            function onRequestFileSystem(fileSystem)

                directoryReader.readEntries(onReadEntries,fail);
            } /*onRequestFile Ends*/

            function onReadEntries(entries)

        return defer.promise;

    }  //Scan Function Ends
