             Summary: PlatformApi master issue
                 Key: CB-9596
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-9596
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: CordovaLib, Plugman
            Reporter: Vladimir Kotikov

This is the master issue for PlatformApi related work.

The description is copied from https://github.com/cordova/cordova-discuss/pull/9

This proposal describes a high-level classes which describes Cordova project 
and Cordova platform as a strictly typed APIs:

* ProjectApi - a high-level abstraction on top of cordova project, exposes 
project's properties and methods for project management.
PlatformApi class - further development of PlatformProject (see #4) - 
abstraction for single particular platform.

To make the transition to new API smoother, the cordova-lib needs to be updated 
to expose the same class, which will work as a polyfill in case if platform 
doesn't provides its own PlatformApi.

There also a potential problem of code duplication, since the PlatformApi needs 
for several classes, which currently being stored and exposed by cordova-lib: 
ConfigParser, PluginInfo, etc. The one of solutions of this problem - is to 
factor out the common classes and routines to shared module (proposed name - 
cordova-common), which then will be released separately. This approach is 
discussed in cordova-lib/#235
