             Summary: cordova@7 plugin add --link is broken
                 Key: CB-12787
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-12787
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: cordova-fetch, cordova-lib
    Affects Versions: 7.0.0
            Reporter: Steve Gill


with the change to cordova-fetch for local paths, cordova plugin add 
SOMELOCALPATH --link doesn't work anymore. 

The plugin first gets `npm installed` into your cordova project (so it now 
lives in node_modules), and then it gets copied into your plugins directory. 
During the copy to your plugins directory step, that is when the symlink gets 
created. So the symlink points to your node_modules/PLUGINDIR and not the local 
path to your plugin.

I believe the solution to fixing this would be to `npm link` the plugin instead 
of `npm install` when adding it with `--link` flag.
