[jira] [Commented] (CB-10770) cordova cli not adding platform via npm specifying new version before 24 hours of release

["Carlos Santana (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-10770?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15178170#comment-15178170 ] 

Carlos Santana commented on CB-10770:
-------------------------------------

We could fix this by catching the error and trying again with a default or lower cache-min, default is 10 seconds

[~stevegill] might have a better way to handle this now, and how we should handle in the future when we use external npm

I don't know the history behind changing the default and use 24 hours, I think is useful allows you to work with projects with offline (add platforms, plugins) without having access to npm registry.

> A new release of platform ios cordova-ios@4.1.0 is published to NPM
> User tries to install with $ cordova platform ios@4.1.0
> At the time of this command the npm cache information for the pacakge cordova-ios in ~/.cordova/lib/npm_cache/registry.npmjs.org/cordova-ios/.cache.json doesn't have the information about 4.1.0 and the file is not older than 24 hours.
> cordova cli is configured with npm cache-min = 3600*24 (24 hours)
> If the file in the cache is not older than 24 hours npm will not check the registry. and requested package cordova-ios@4.1.0 is not added to the cache.
> There is no err catch for this case in the cordova-lib [1]
