------------------------------------

             Summary: Warn developers about incompatible plugins when they 
update their platforms
                 Key: CB-11008
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-11008
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: CordovaLib
            Reporter: Richard B Knoll
            Assignee: Richard B Knoll


The engines tag in plugin.xml already does something similar. The purpose of 
this issue is to use the new plugin version selection API (CB-10679) instead of 
the engine tag. With the new API, the engine information can be updated 
remotely by altering the plugin's package.json and republishing to npm. Doing 
so prevents the engine info in a locally installed plugin from becoming stale.

We can also indicate the latest compatible release of a plugin in the scenario 
where a plugin is no longer compatible with the given project.

The plan is to add this logic to {{cordova platform add}} and {{cordova 
platform update}}
