I feel like the config.xml behavior is the correct behavior, since you might want to add files to other folders, not just to app/src/main
.
In example a common case of usage for resource-file is to copy the google-services.json
file, which needs to be inside app
folder, not in app/src/main
folder.
But changing the behavior for plugins at this point will break a lot of plugins, so I think we should document the difference of behavior when using it in config.xml
vs plugin.xml
Bug Report
Problem
when defining a
<resource-file src="example.xml" target="res/values/example.xml" />
see cordova documentation config.xml the src-file is not copied into the application-resources folder<platform-dir>/app/src/main/
, but instead to the<project-dir>
. In contrast when defining the same<resource-file />
in a plugin.xml, the file will be copied to the right destination see https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/blob/e61e271f5bbb517a9598078f7a1ad7585bfe5f9c/lib/pluginHandlers.js#L61What is expected to happen?
The defined src should be copied within the application-resource folder
<platform-dir>/app/src/main/
What does actually happen?
The src-file will be copied to the
<project-dir>
