             Summary: support arbitrary creation of resources in the Asset 
Catalog
                 Key: CB-12668
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-12668
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: iOS
    Affects Versions: 3.6.4
            Reporter: Josh Sharpe
            Priority: Critical


A handful of plugins* recommend the use of an image/asset out of the Asset 
Catalog.  It would be great if we could create those just by setting tags in 
config.xml, similar to <icon> and <splash> that then generate the resource in 
xCode.

My specific use case is to add a "back" image to be used by 
'cordova-plugin-themeablebrowser'.  I can manually do this by:
- opening xCode
- Click on Project -> Resources -> Image.xcassets
- Click '+' in the bottom task bar -> New Image Set
- Rename the new Set 'back'
- Manually drag and drop 3 images into xcode

To be clear - I'm not asking that cordova produce different sized images as I 
believe that's out of scope.  I just need it to build the new resource in xcode 
referencing certain files on disk with tags like:

<platform name='ios'>
  <resource name='back' src='my_resources/[email protected]' target='1x' />
  <resource name='back' src='my_resources/[email protected]' target='2x' />
  <resource name='back' src='my_resources/[email protected]' target='3x' />
</platform

* Example plugins:
https://github.com/arnesson/cordova-plugin-firebase
https://github.codifferent m/phonegap/phonegap-plugin-push
https://github.com/initialxy/cordova-plugin-themeablebrowser

**Bonus!**
It'd be extra great, since I'm sure some folks want this, if cordova could add 
sound files to be used by firebase/push plugins that can leverage those if they 
exist.
