> Provide more control over CordovaProjectName vs CordovaAppName
> --------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: CB-7231
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-7231
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: CordovaLib
> Affects Versions: Master
> Reporter: Carlos Santana
>
> Discussion in mailing list

> When user wants to have the App name show on the screen of the they might
> characters that are incompatible with file and directory names.
> Today when a user sets a custom name via cli create, it's use for app name
> but also for native files and directory names (depends on platform)
> cordova create 'שלום'
> the value 'שלום' will be use for the cordova project path, app name, and
> native files.
> Or another use case is config.xml, if user sets a new name like
> <name>שלום</name>
> then runs a cordova build
> then the app name and native files will refactor with new name.
> The enhancement is to allow the developer to specify an app name without
> affecting the native platform files.
> One proposal for config.xml is to keep backward compatibility is to use
> attribute in 'project' in name tag like
> if attribute not specify (i.e. default) or not different from previous build
> then do not change native plafform files or directory names.
> Use will be able to control both values like:
> <name project="HelloCordova">שלום</name>
> For the cli or platform shell script then allow to pass optional parameter
> for projectname, if not pass then appname is use to keep backwards
> compatibility
> CLI:
> cordova create MyCordovaFolder com.example.mycordova שלום
> --project="HelloCordova"
> or Shell script
> like in cordova-ios/bin/create
> Usage: $0 [--shared] [--arc] [--cli] <path_to_new_project> <package_name>
> <project_name> [<project_template_dir>]
> project_name only affects app name, and not project files, default value
> HelloCordova will be use unless specify like --project
> cordova-ios/bin/create projectpath com.example.myapp שלום
> --project="myxcodeprojectname"
> Cordova CLI (metadata platform parsers) and all platforms create scripts will
> need to be updated
