> Adding a plugin with caret in version results in an error
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-9559
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-9559
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: CordovaLib
> Affects Versions: 5.2.0
> Environment: OS X 10.10.5
> cordova-cli 5.2.0
> Reporter: Shazron Abdullah
> Assignee: Tim Barham
> Priority: Critical
>
> *Repro:*
> {code}
> cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-battery-status@^1.0.0
> Fetching plugin "cordova-plugin-battery-status@^1.0.0" via npm
> Failed to fetch plugin cordova-plugin-battery-status@^1.0.0 via registry.
> Probably this is either a connection problem, or plugin spec is incorrect.
> Check your connection and plugin name/version/URL.
> Error: No compatible version found: cordova-plugin-battery-status@'">=1.0.0
> <2.0.0"'
> Valid install targets:
> ["0.2.1","0.2.3","0.2.4","0.2.5","0.2.6","0.2.7","0.2.9","0.2.10","0.2.11","0.2.12","1.0.0","1.1.0"]
> {code}
> *Expected:*
> The plugin can be installed
> *Actual:*
> The plugin cannot be installed.
> Note in the error log, the version is expanded from:
> {code}
> @^1.0.0
> {code}
> to:
> {code}
> @">=1.0.0 <2.0.0"
> {code}
> But, it appears the double quotes around the expanded version in the error
> log are *wrapped with single quotes* now, resulting in the error.
> The version is expanded using this *processPluginVersion* function:
> https://github.com/apache/cordova-lib/blob/3e34b557c8bb6876022f0a4186b81d4ff8e5da75/cordova-lib/src/plugman/registry/registry.js#L282
> From this commit:
> https://github.com/apache/cordova-lib/commit/024b970b26d3d8b7f9a6b2f0eab2325d7716deef
> The fix appears to be not calling the function *processPluginVersion* and
> passing it to *npm cache add* as is:
> https://github.com/apache/cordova-lib/blob/3e34b557c8bb6876022f0a4186b81d4ff8e5da75/cordova-lib/src/plugman/registry/registry.js#L270
> The purpose of this function is because we are using an older version of npm
> that may not understand carets. Is this still truly the case? If not, we
> could get rid of this function -- while still keeping CB-9147 fixed/resolved
