Merge/Unify Cordova security plugin into single codebase #39

Open wtrocki opened 6 years ago

wtrocki commented 6 years ago

Security SDK contains multiple Cordova plugins that are outdated and causing constant issues on build/start. Many community members and developers asked me for help so I always recommend to disable security plugins and this resolves the issue.

Plugins causing many incompatibilities. As result we cannot run project in Android Studio. I could create tickets to resolve all this issues separately, but I think that we should really resolve problem in the source: Plugins we use are just outdated and they going to cause constant issues. We also cannot update them at source as they do not seem to be maintained anymore

I was thinking about getting them all merged into single aerogear cordova security plugin that could be really beneficial for the community and will resolve problems with setup. Considering that most of this plugins have 5-20 lines of code this should not be a big issue. This could be good community contribution outside regular work stream that will really improve our Cordova SDK that seems to be really overloaded by Security plugins.

@laurafitzgerald @wei-lee - Could we move this issue directly for js-sdk or we want to track everything in proposals?
