Filip Maj commented on CB-298:
------------------------------
{{addConstructor}} was added to the cordova module in cordova-js for backwards
compatibility.
{{hasResource}} and {{addResource}} do not exist in cordova-js.
As far some guidance on how to move over, I would recommend employing cordova's
{{define}} and {{require}} in cordova-js. For a {{hasResource}} equivalent, I
would check if {{cordova.require('mymoduleid')}} throws an exception. If so,
then go ahead and use {{cordova.define}}. If not, it's already defined, as the
user does in your above example, simply {{return}} out. In the same vein,
{{cordova.define}} can be used as a replacement for {{addResource}}.
The only other change would be to the call to {{exec}}. Users can go with
either calling {{cordova.exec}} directly, or if they want to use the same
{{require}} syntax they can roll with {{cordova.require('cordova/exec')}}.
> DEPRECATE and then remove "plugins" and "PhoneGap" global objects from
> JavaScript implementation
