Meteor 1.6 how do I get/upgrade to latest Cordova?

adamginsburg · November 12, 2017, 11:01pm

I have updated my project to Meteor 1.6 but I am seeing some issues when I meteor add-platform ios

cordova-custom-config: Installed npm dependencies
%% Plugin doesn't support this project's cordova-ios version. cordova-ios: 4.5.1, failed version requirement: <4.5.0
%% Skipping 'cordova-plugin-console' for ios  
Google Sign-In prerequisites                 -

cordova-custom-config: Applied custom config from config.xml to /Users/adamginsburg/Documents/development/buzzy7/.meteor/local/cordova-build/platforms/ios/Buzzy/Buzzy-Info.plist
ios: added platform

The plugin cordova-plugin-console is not actually needed anymore as it’s built in now included …

This plugin is no longer being worked on as the functionality provided by this plugin is now included in cordova-ios > 4.5.0 or greater, and support is already built in to cordova-windows > 5.0.0. You should remove this plugin from your > applications.

So it seems like the Cordover version of my Meteor project is on 4.5.1… how do I get it to a later version (post 5)?

thanks

BTW these are the cordova plugins I currently have:

cordova-custom-config@3.3.0
cordova-plugin-calendar@4.4.7
cordova-plugin-compat@1.2.0
cordova-plugin-console@1.1.0

The latest released version of cordova-ios is v4.5.3. This pull request in Meteor 1.6.1 provides this version. There is no version 5 of cordova-ios.

Also, sounds like you might need to update to cordova-custom-config@4.4.0 and remove cordova-plugin-console@1.1.0 from your ./meteor/cordova-plugins file.

adamginsburg · November 13, 2017, 1:24am

Thanks. @skirunman yep, if I remove cordova-plugin-console I get a linker error in Xcode, if I add it back in it goes away.

The error is around duplicates…

duplicate symbol _OBJC_CLASS_$_CDVLogger in:
    /Users/adamginsburg/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Buzzy-dqirsrcohaqedrfarjlcqjhtcjxc/Build/Intermediates.noindex/Buzzy.build/Debug-iphoneos/Buzzy.build/Objects-normal/arm64/CDVLogger.o

clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

any ideas pls?

adamginsburg · November 13, 2017, 3:08am

I deleted CDV_Logger from the project and the error went away… that said, I can’t seem to find the dependency on it. I have been through all the cordovaplugins I have and can’t seem to see it. :-/ So me deliting the files out of the XCode project this seems like a complete hack… which gets overritten each time I do a meteor run ios-device

is there a command I can use to see what version of Cordova is actually running?

skirunman · November 14, 2017, 2:33am

Look in /.meteor/local/cordova-build/platforms/platforms.json

For Meteor 1.6 you should see

{
    "android": "6.2.3",
    "ios": "4.5.1"
}

adamginsburg · November 14, 2017, 3:17am

Thanks @skirunman. I see exactly that.

cheers

Reviving Old thread as I wanted to get some confirmation from experts. I have moved my app to 1.8.0.2 meteor release but still when I try to build Android app the platform json point to

{
  "android": "https://github.com/meteor/cordova-android/tarball/317db7df0f7a054444197bc6d28453cf4ab23280",
  "ios": "4.5.4"
}

Still pointing to cordova-android 6.4.0, Whereas when I see GITHUB meteor/ cordova-android I notice things have moved on, but for some reason my app is still picking old.
Wanted to check if I am doing wrong or some dependency is forcing to use older version. Or is this the current version.
Please help.
