Pat Deegan created CB-11338:
-------------------------------
Summary: Plugin javascript resources not copied over to platform
for ubuntu
Key: CB-11338
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-11338
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: CLI
Environment: Ubuntu 15.10
Current env (though only recently updated in hopes of resolving issue, which
was present with prior versions of cordova/nodejs):
$ cordova -v
6.1.1
$ nodejs -v
v6.2.0
Reporter: Pat Deegan
Plugin javascript files, including cordova_plugins.js and contents of plugins/
directory, fail to be included in builds for ubuntu. The issue has been found
using a host of different plugins (with notional ubuntu support), and will be
demonstrated here using the cordova-plugin-device.
Note: the same plugins do work without issue in Android builds, and the problem
may be solved with a simple manual copy, as demonstrated below.
To replicate failure:
=================================================
cordova create plugintest com.example.plugintest plugintest
cd plugintest/
cordova plugins add cordova-plugin-device --save
cordova platform add ubuntu
cordova prepare ubuntu
cordova run ubuntu --verbose --debug
=================================================
Using chromium to inspect console output and variables (entries preceded by ">"
are my input to the console):
=================================================
Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND
file:///tmp/plugintest/platforms/ubuntu/native/prefix/www/cordova_plugins.js
Received Event: deviceready
> device
VM67:1 Uncaught ReferenceError: device is not defined(...)
=================================================
To fix:
=================================================
cp ./platforms/ubuntu/platform_www/cordova_plugins.js
./platforms/ubuntu/native/prefix/www/
cp -R ./platforms/ubuntu/platform_www/plugins/
./platforms/ubuntu/native/prefix/www/
cordova run ubuntu --verbose --debug --nobuild
=================================================
(The --nobuild option is important, otherwise the copied files are destroyed).
At this stage, connecting to the console shows no net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND and
the "device" from the plugin is present
=================================================
adding proxy for Device
Received Event: deviceready
> device
Device {available: true, platform: "Linux", version: "15.10", uuid:
"{95eabc1234-d601-7563-d35b-abc1234}", ...}
> device.cordova
"4.3.2"
=================================================
I'm not certain whether the fix would allow building of deb packages, but is
sufficient for "cordova run" commands to work correctly.
I'd appreciate any info concerning anything I may be missing/doing wrong and/or
more permanent/automated fixes.
Thanks,
PatD
