[jira] [Commented] (CB-13301) Add config.xml option to allow moving app to SD Card

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-13301?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16175506#comment-16175506 ]

-----------------------------------

You can now write in the AndroidManifest.xml using edit-config tag in the config.xml, this can be probably done using that tag

>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Wish
>          Components: cordova-android
>    Affects Versions: Master
>         Environment: Visual Studio 201x
>            Reporter: Andres Zsogon

> Currently, the Move to SD card option in Android is disabled by default. We have to create this hook to edit the manifest and allow moving it to SD card:
> {{#!/usr/bin/env node
> // Adds lines to the Android Manifest if they are not already there
> const LINES_TO_ADD = [
>     {
>         text: ' android:installLocation="auto"', /* allow moving app to SD card */
>         after: '<manifest'
>     }
> ];
> const MANIFEST = 'platforms/android/AndroidManifest.xml';
> var fs = require('fs'),
>   manifestText = fs.readFileSync(MANIFEST).toString();
> LINES_TO_ADD.forEach(function(lineToAdd) {
>   if(manifestText.indexOf(lineToAdd.text) === -1) {
>     manifestText = manifestText.replace(lineToAdd.after, lineToAdd.after + lineToAdd.text);
>   }
> });
> fs.writeFileSync(MANIFEST, manifestText);}}
> However, if we compile for Windows Universal for the first time and there is no Android manifest, build fails. Also it is very annoying to use hooks for essential features such as this.
