I am trying to use Camera plugin in a Crodva app developing by (MultiDeviceHybridApp) and I get this error:
Plugin doesn't support this project's cordova-android version. cordova-android: 4.1.1, failed version requirement: >=5.0.0-dev
Skipping 'cordova-plugin-camera' for android
based on the answer of this post Plugin doesn't support this project's cordova-android version. cordova-android: 4.1.1, failed version requirement: >=5.0.0-dev it seems that I need to upgrade the Platform, but running the below command in project folder will show this error
cordova platform update android@5.0.0
Current working directory is not a Cordova-based project
I found the solution, and I am writing it in case some body else has the same problem
Open this folder %AppData%\npm\node_modules\vs-mda\node_modules\cordova\node_modules\cordova-lib\src\platforms there are two files in there,
open platformsConfig.json
You can see different platforms there, find android and change
"android": {
"parser_file": "../cordova/metadata/android_parser",
"handler_file": "../plugman/platforms/android",
"url": "https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=cordova-android.git",
"version": "~4.1.0"
},
to
"android": {
"parser_file": "../cordova/metadata/android_parser",
"handler_file": "../plugman/platforms/android",
"url": "https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=cordova-android.git",
"version": "~5.0.0"
},
Clean your project and build it again. ;)
