cordova help
has a section for "Experimental Commands" they are listed there. Once
the save and restore is graduated that section will be empty though.

Yes! Also quick q, are all experimental flags documented somewhere?

Hi all,
I am a big fan of the experimental "save" and "restore" features
that
are
in the CLI and saw that Gorkem has also created another PR (
https://github.com/apache/cordova-lib/pull/143 ) to have a setting
to
auto persist/restore plugin versions which is a really interesting
idea.
Glad it helps someone. The current PR is for plugins and I will
send a
PR
for platforms too. The ultimate goal is to be able to remove
platforms
and
plugins folder completely.
On a related note, one issue I ran into with platform save/restore
is
when you need to involve multiple operating systems for a given
project.
Ex: Targeting say iOS, Windows, and Ubuntu from the same project
or
simply
have some team members on OSX or Linux while others are on Windows
-
you
need to be able to "save" or "restore" only platforms that run on
the
OS
you are currently using.
For the restore situation, it seems to make quite a bit of sense
to use
any version information in config.xml when you add a platform by
default.
The fact the information in is in config.xml indicates the goal is
consistency.
Here is a PR that adds this functionality for platforms:
https://github.com/apache/cordova-lib/pull/140#issuecomment-68942932
This functionality makes a lot of sense especially if/when it
supports
git urls?
With that in mind, we could also follow that familiar pattern that
exists
with npm and package.json to help out when you want to quickly
save the
platform you added to config.xml.
Ex:
cordova platform add android --save
I think we should have support for --save on plugins add/remove as
well.
Ultimately, I think users of this functionality configure their
projects to
be auto restore and use this or the save/restore commands to
specify
what
needs to be restored.
There is one catch with the implementation though. Save and restore
are
still called with --experimental, perhaps we need to remove
--experimental
before this can proceed.
...adds the latest android platform and updates config.xml with the
version that was added. As always, you can always use the existing
syntax
to add a different version (cordova platform add
android@4.0.0<mailto:
android@4.0.0>). I'm planning on putting together a PR on that
idea as
well. We could actually follow a similar model for plugins as
well.
Thanks,
Mefire
