Should 3rd party plugin registries be encouraged or not? I personally would like to see more of them but I do not think we are technically supporting them enough. Introducing a new registry to plugman/cli is done through config.js. I guess the first problem is that "it is done through config.js" rather than a CLI parameter.
And even through config.js it is basically replacing the registry rather than introducing a new one. This is somewhat limiting if a plugin dependency is done through plugin ids (registry based ). The current implementation limits plugins to have registry based dependencies from the same repo that they are pulled in from. And I think this is related to the officially supported plugins discussion as well. I think the plugins that "cordova community" (take community in its largest form here) provides with a reasonable quality and support should be in cordova registry. The other experimental stuff should live elsewhere but be easily consumable for the brave. -- Gorkem On Sat, Oct 12, 2013 at 9:02 PM, Joni Rustulka <j...@adobe.com> wrote: > I started work on an updated UI for the cordova registry yesterday, > coincidentally. > > -j > > On 13-10-11 5:04 PM, "Steven Gill" <stevengil...@gmail.com> wrote: > > >Maybe we should contact him to help out with our official registry!
