Support for plugins with -dev on the version #9

Closed apptoix closed 8 years ago

Hi, Previously, I created a bash shell script to update cordova plugins, but cordova-check-plugins provides a better implementation. It works well with plugins versions N.N.N, but it would be very helpful if also supports versions N.N.N-dev. For these plugins it gives an error.

Here are 2 examples where this such problem: cordova-plugin-network-information phonegap-plugin-mobile-accessibility

Cheers Alexandre

Awesome!

A save and restore feature would be the cherry on the top ;-)

Many times cordova new versions are buggy, it can be very helpful for the system to backup the current version numbers in a different section or file, and in case the new plugin version crash, to be able to rollback to a previous versions.

Just got around to this. Testing with the current version (cordova-custom-config@1.0.11), it seems to handle version with -dev OK: under the hood, it uses semver which should handle pre-release tags such as -dev correctly.

Please let me know if there's a scenario where this is not working.
