----------------------------------
Summary: Cordova fetch updates too aggressively and breaks itself
Key: CB-13589
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-13589
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Andrew Crites
Priority: Blocker
Related: CB-11252 CB-12262 -- these issues say they are fixed, but I can still
reproduce them.
Running {{cordova platform add}} with plugins directly from github or a file
system path will update {{package.json}} in a way that subsequently breaks the
plugin installation. To get around this, you must currently use {{cordova
platform add $PLATFORM --nofetch}}.
For example:
{code}
<plugin name="cordova-plugin-apprate"
spec="https://github.com/pushandplay/cordova-plugin-apprate#0cc8b3b424491d35b1e571a69b21d2ae7cb9cff9";
/>
<plugin name="phonegap-plugin-push"
spec="./src/local-plugins/phonegap-plugin-push">
<variable name="SENDER_ID" value="$SENDER_ID" />
</plugin>
{code}
On an initial {{cordova platform add}} this will work fine. However, this
updates {{package.json}} to add these plugins as dependencies:
{code}
+ "cordova-plugin-apprate":
"git+https://github.com/pushandplay/cordova-plugin-apprate.git#0cc8b3b424491d35b1e571a69b21d2ae7cb9cff9";,
+ "phonegap-plugin-push": "file:src/local-plugins/phonegap-plugin-push",
{code}
Now try:
{code}
rm -rf node_modules platforms plugins
npx [email protected] install
npx [email protected] platform add ios
{code}
for example. Plugin installation will be unsuccessful:
{code}
Failed to restore plugin "phonegap-plugin-push" from config.xml. You might need
to try adding it again. Error: Failed to fetch plugin
file:src/local-plugins/phonegap-plugin-push via registry.
Failed to restore plugin "cordova-plugin-apprate" from config.xml. You might

git+https://github.com/pushandplay/cordova-plugin-apprate.git#0cc8b3b424491d35b1e571a69b21d2ae7cb9cff9
via registry.
{code}
Manually removing the {{package.json}} update ({{--nosave}} is broken CB-13463)
or using {{--nofetch}} will work.
