DavidTalevski opened a new issue, #543:
URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-file/issues/543
# Feature Request
## Motivation Behind Feature
Most applications and plugin functionalities do not require
"android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE".
## Feature Description
Adding a variable during installation whether or not to include the
permission might be the simplest solution. I'm not exactly sure if the cordova
xml structure supports something like checking if a preference is equal to a
value and then adding a permission or any other tag.
```xml
<!-- Check if external storage permission should be added? -->
<config-file target="AndroidManifest.xml" parent="/*">
<uses-permission
android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
</config-file>
```
## Alternatives or Workarounds
A workaround for completely removing the permission is mentioned here: #243
I'm also using a fork in my projects where the permission is removed
directly from the plugin.xml.
