cordovacordova-3

Can I install a previous version of a plugin using the cordova plugin add command?


I am trying to rebuild a cordova project from scratch and creating documentation along the way. I would like to be able to install consistent versions of plugins to avoid having to retest new code for the time being. Is there a way to specify a previous version of a plugin similar to the way you can specify a previous version of cordova? For example, I am familiar with the following syntax to install a specific version of cordova:

npm install -g cordova@3.1

And I'm able to install a plugin with the following syntax:

cordova plugin add org.apache.cordova.device

I would like to be able to so something like the following:

cordova plugin add org.apache.cordova.device@2.1

Any insight including "not possible" would be helpful. Thanks!


Solution

  • from official cordova website

    http://cordova.apache.org/news/2013/10/21/cordova-registry.html

    From anywhere within an app’s directory, plugins can be added to a project with

    cordova plugin add [PLUGIN_ID]
    

    where PLUGIN_ID is the id (typically reverse-domain style) shown on the plugin registry website. You can also download a specific version of a plugin:

    cordova plugin add [PLUGIN_ID]@[VERSION]
