Marcel Kinard created CB-7678:
---------------------------------
Summary: dependent plugins attempt to install again, revert wipes
out all previously-installed plugins
Key: CB-7678
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-7678
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: CordovaLib
Reporter: Marcel Kinard
Priority: Minor
This may be higher priority than Minor.
I have npm-link'ed cordova-lib into cordova-plugman and cordova-cli and am
running createmobilespec.js. I am using master of all repos. When I run
createmobilespec, it attempts to install the File plugin twice, probably as a
dependency to FileTransfer. Upon that 2nd install attempt, it recognizes a
problem and tries to revert.

When I try to run the generated mobilespec project, I am getting exceptions
regarding missing classes. And indeed the native parts of classes are missing:
{code}
$ ls mobilespec/platforms/android/src/org/apache/cordova
file media statusbar
filetransfer mediacapture test
globalization networkinformation vibration
inappbrowser splashscreen
$
{code}
All the plugins which were installed prior to FIle are now gone. It looks like
the revert is being too aggressive and deleting all previously-installed
plugins.
If I don't npm-link cordova-lib and just let it download the latest published
one from the npm registry as defined in cordova-plugman's package.json, neither
of these problems exist. Methinks that a problem has been introduced in
cordova-lib since the last tools release.
