Import platform specific www-files
Hi again ;-),
I use a plugin with different JavaScript files for each platform. Can I, somehow, control which of these files are added to which platform specific www folder during cordova build?
Or do I need to include both inside the www folder and refer to them based on device.platform?
Greets,
Andreas

Andreas,
Can you file this as an issue in JIRA instead of on this list? We can work
out your specific problems in an issue instead of bothering the entire
list.
Head over to issues.cordova.io, sign up for an account if you don't have
one already, and file an issue. Component should be set to "plugman"

RE: Import platform specific www-files
Posted by Andreas Sander <an...@hotmail.de>.
Hi,
I need a tip what's wrong with my XML file.
My file structure is:
plugin||-> plugin.xml|-> www/ | ----> ios/ ----> android/-> src/ | ---> ios/ ---> android/
and here is my XML
When I use the asset command before android platform, everything works great. But inside the platform specification something seems to be wrong and nothing happens.
Can somebody help me with that, or is it possible to debug the xml or check it against a specific xml specification?
With best regards,
Andreas

Re: Import platform specific www-files

Hey Andreas,
If you are the author of the plugin, I would recommend checking out
plugman, which is cordova's tool for installing and uninstalling plugins
automatically into/from a cordova project:
https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=cordova-plugman.git;a=summary
In the README, there is a specification for a plugin.xml manifest. This
file describes what makes up your plugin, and the plugman tool uses this
manifest to run the installation and uninstallation. It supports the
following use cases, which seem to align with your objectives:
- <asset> or <js-module> elements that can be nested under a particular
<platform> element, denoting platform-specific web assets or javascript
modules that should be included in the plugin only for certain platforms.
- also has a <config-file> element allowing to automatically add/remove
sections from various cordova and native project configuration files.
For a few examples check out PhoneGap Build's plugins:
https://github.com/phonegap-build
They all have a plugin.xml manifest.

Thanks!
One further question:
Is it possible to add the necessary plugin entries into the project plist (iOS) and config.xml (android) automatically during build or do I have to do this always manually?
Do I need to specify these settings inside the plugin folder?

If you are using cordova-cli, there is already a merges/ folder for exactly
this.
>From the README:
Platform-specific web assets (HTML, CSS and JavaScript files) are contained
within appropriate subfolders in this directory. These are deployed during
a prepare to the appropriate native directory. Files placed under merges/ will
override matching files in the www/folder for the relevant platform.
