jcesarmobile resolved CB-14262.
-------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
cordova-android 11 has colors.xml now
> Cordova does not allow creating and editing resource files
> ----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-14262
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-14262
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: cordova-android
> Affects Versions: 7.0.0
> Reporter: Tobias Larscheid
> Priority: Major
>
> Hi,
> in my cordova plugin, I am trying to edit the resulting android apps
> `colors.xml` file. Unfortunately, by default the android app cordova creates
> does not have a `colors.xml` file - this means the following code does
> nothing, as a non existent file is simply ignored (without warning or error).
> {code:java}
> <config-file target="./res/values/colors.xml" parent="/resources">
> <color name="my-color">#F00000</color>
> </config-file>{code}
> What I tried instead now was first creating the file by simply copying over
> an empty one with the `resource-file` directive and then editing it,
> resulting in a plugin.xml like the following:
> {code:java}
> <resource-file src="path/to/colors.xml"
> target="app/src/main/res/values/colors.xml" />
> <config-file target="./res/values/colors.xml" parent="/resources">
> <color name="my-color">#F00000</color>
> </config-file>{code}
> The file is copied to the correct place, but still not modified. I am
> guessing that `config-file` is somehow executed earlier than `resource-file`.
> Also if I simply add my color to *strings*.xml, it works flawlessly - because
> the android app build with cordova does indeed contain a strings.xml by
> default.
> What I would like to achieve now is either
> a) make the `config-file` directive lazily create the colors.xml if it
> doesn't exist
> b) create an empty colors.xml and fill it with the `config-file` directive
>
> Any ideas are welcome!
