Steve Gill commented on CB-9976:
--------------------------------
Potential implementation in lib to handle this bug:
1) check if plugins/ios.json exists
2) if it exists, merge installed plugins + config munge and add to new ios.json
(located in platforms/ios/ios.json)
3) Run _writePluginModule function from PlatformApiPoly.js to generate new
cordova_plugins.json
4) copy plugin js files from plugins/ into platforms/ios/platform_www/plugins
5) delete plugins/ios.json
Alternative:
1) check if plugins/ios.json exists,
2) remove installed plugins, reinstall them
This could have unintended consequences (what if you edited native plugin files
in your project?)
2nd Alternative:
1) update PlatformAPI polyfill to use plugins/ios.json instead of
platforms/ios/ios.json.
2) copy plugins/ on prepare like it used to work instead of on
install/update/rm/restore.
> Updating to cordovaLib 5.4.0 breaks ios installed plugins

>
> cordova_plugins.js doesn't get created for ios when updating from an older
> cli to a newer cli.
> Have to remove and add plugins manually to get plugins working again.
> Reproduce (need to use npm < 3):
> npm install -g cordova@5.3.3
> cordova create helloWorld
> cd helloWorld
> cordova platform add ios
> cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-device
> cordova prepare (helloWorld/platforms/ios/www/cordova_plugins.js is created)
> npm install -g cordova@5.4.0
> cordova prepare (helloWorld/platforms/ios/www/cordova_plugins.js doesn't
> exist)
> `helloWorld/platforms/ios/ios.json` is also incorrect in the updated version.
