-------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
> Cordova hits internet unnecessarily when getting cached platform or plugin
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-11985
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-11985
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: cordova-lib
> Affects Versions: 6.3.1
> Reporter: Tim Barham
> Assignee: Tim Barham
> Priority: Major
>
> In you are disconnected from the internet and try to add a platform or plugin
> that has previously been cached, Cordova eventually successfully installs the
> platform/plugin, but only after a very long wait.
> We could check for the existence of the cached platform/plugin before calling
> {{npm cache add}}. This would mean an instant return when not connected to
> the internet.
> Note that this will only help if we are adding a specific version - when a
> version range is specified, we need to hit the internet anyway to find the
> matching version.
> Background: First time build failures in Cordova tools in Visual Studio are
> primarily due to {{npm}} failures. Therefore we are working to avoid any
> requirement for {{npm}}} to hit the internet in simple build scenarios. This
> includes pre-installing cached versions of certain platforms and plugins. But
> we only get the full benefit if Cordova uses these cached versions if it
> finds them, without calling {{npm cache add}}.
