tags: release tools

New versions of cordova tools are now live!

Release highlights:

  • Plugins have been renamed and the Cordova-CLI now supports fetching plugins from npm. We highly recommend reading about it in the plugins release blog post.
  • <feature> tags have been renamed to <plugin> tags in your projects config.xml. Adding a <plugin> tag to your config.xml will fetch and install it on cordova prepare if it isn't already installed.
  • Cordova Android@4.0.0 has been released and pinned as the default version for new projects. This includes support for pluggable WebViews! Read about it in the Android 4.0.0 release blog post.
  • Our template app, Cordova App Hello World, has been moved to npm.
  • Added the ability to manage your plugin and platform dependencies in your project's config.xml. When adding plugins or platforms, use the --save flag to add them to config.xml. Ex: cordova platform add android --save. Existing projects can use cordova plugin save and cordova platform save commands to save all previously installed plugins and platforms into your project's config.xml. Platforms and plugins will be autorestored when cordova prepare is run. This allows developers to easily manage and share their dependenceis among different development enviroments and with their coworkers.

To update your tools:

  • If you have cordova installed:

    npm install -g cordova

  • If you have plugman installed:

    npm install -g plugman

Changes include:
