--- End diff --
When optimist was being used and the default behavior was to create both
Android and iOS, that was just preserving the original behavior of the shell
script when this ran only on OSX. Now that you are getting createmobilespec to
work on Windows and Linux dev machines, it's probably wise to revisit that
default behavior. I'd suggest that the new default is to create only the mobile
platforms that are requested. For example "createmobilespec --android
--blackberry10". If no args are specified, then exit with an error. These
should be the same words used in the "cordova platform add" command, for
consistency. And I would also suggest to have them be args instead of a menu,
so that createmobilespec can be used by a parent script in a scenario such as
Medic (continuous integration test). Interactive input would make that use case
difficult.
I see your point about checking which mobile platforms are appropriate for
the dev workstation, but if the "cordova platform add" command is doing that
checking already (which is what createmobilespec is calling anyway), then I
would suggest to not bother implementing that check again here in
createmobilespec, and just let the error bubble up from "cordova platform add".
createmobilespec is going to be used only by people developing Cordova, so they
should already have some knowledge of the basic rules, as compared to an app
developer. So I think it is OK to let "cordova platform add" catch the issue
instead of duplicating the "check" logic here, as long as the error does bubble
up in a presentation that is comprehensible.
