Raphael commented on CB-13937:
------------------------------
This is almost expected behavior. For comparison: _npm install lodash_ will
install from the local folder _lodash_ *iff* it contains a package.json.
So in the best case, we should use the local folder if it looks like a platform
and _cordova-ios_ otherwise.
> `cordova platform add ios` fails if `ios` folder is present

> Key: CB-13937
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-13937
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: cordova-lib
> Affects Versions: 8.0.0
> Reporter: Jan Piotrowski (Sujan)
> Priority: Major
>
> If there is a folder called like the platform you want to install, it will
> fail.
> See here for an example where an `ios` folder was present before executing
> `cordova platform add ios`:
> {code}
> ```

> When renaming the `ios` folder to `_ios` it all works as expected:
> {code}
> MacBook-Pro:project sujan$ cordova platform add ios
> Using cordova-fetch for cordova-ios@~4.5.4
> Adding ios project...
> Creating Cordova project for the iOS platform:
> Path: platforms/ios
> ...
> {code}
> Is this expected behavior?
> Is there a simple way to work around this without removing or renaming the
> folder?
