Andrew Grieve created CB-5063:
---------------------------------
Summary: "Prepare" should not depend on the ~/.cordova/libs
directory
Key: CB-5063
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5063
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: CLI
Reporter: Andrew Grieve
Assignee: Mark Koudritsky
Priority: Minor
Look in src/metadata/*_parser.js
They all have logic in `update_www()` to copy the cordova.js file from
util.libDirectory.
When users change machines, this turns into an error since the ~/.lib directory
is not populated.
On iOS, the fix is trivial - a copy of cordova.js already exists at
platforms/ios/CordovaLib/cordova.js
For other platforms, we could trivially fix the problem just by not blowing
away the www/cordova.js file during prepare, but I think it would be better to
not rely on that since likely people should not be committing the generated
www/ into source control.
Instead, let's ensure that all platforms keep a copy of their cordova.js file
within their platform/ directory and use copy that into www/ during prepare.
We could maybe even get rid of the custom logic entirely by putting the
cordova.js file within `merges/` upon `platform add`.
