Unable to install the plugin in Platforms directory using config.xml

[adityasaxena]

Hi,

In my config.xml I have two things:

<plugin name="io.branch.sdk" spec="~2.4.2">
        <variable name="BRANCH_KEY" value="key_live_igupHQAeyeHaILjCyCPGajcayDjCyCPG" />
        <variable name="URI_SCHEME" value="XXX" />
    </plugin>

<branch-config>
        <host name="XXX.app.link" scheme="https" />
    </branch-config>

When I try to do cordova build android, the plugin doesn't result in my AndroidManifest.xml changes.

However, if I tried to do cordova plugin add ... command, then the plugin does get added to AndroidManifest.xml.

Could someone help me understand what am I missing here ?

@aditiverma ,
<branch-config> is okay, however can you try to set your branch_key & uri_scheme upon adding the plugin?

cordova plugin add branch-cordova-sdk --variable BRANCH_KEY=<YOUR-BRANCH-KEY> --variable URI_SCHEME=<YOUR-URI-SCHEME>;

@renesansz I can't believe what I have for you :-) io-branch-sdk cannot fetch the plugin from registry when set like this:

<plugin name="io.branch.sdk" spec="~2.4.2">
        <variable name="BRANCH_KEY" value="key_live_igupHQAeyeHaILjCyCPGajcayDjCyCPG" />
        <variable name="URI_SCHEME" value="XXX" />
    </plugin>

The above however is what happens when you do cordova plugin add branch-cordova-sdk --variable BRANCH_KEY=<YOUR-BRANCH-KEY> --variable URI_SCHEME=<YOUR-URI-SCHEME>; Yes, the plugin name in config.xml is set to be io.branch.sdk. Maybe because that is what is set in plugin.xml

What does work however is this:

<plugin name="branch-cordova-sdk" spec="~2.4.2">
        <variable name="BRANCH_KEY" value="key_live_igupHQAeyeHaILjCyCPGajcayDjCyCPG" />
        <variable name="URI_SCHEME" value="XXX" />
    </plugin>

Would someone have this fixed soon ? :-)

I don't think any progress will be made here. I am making my way by using branch-cordova-sdk in the plugin's name field and that lets me move forward.
