Phonegap Plugins work on CLI?

Question

Does the Phonegap Plugins work on CLI or only on the phonegap online build? If yes, please tell me how to properly integrate the splashscreen plugin on phonegap 3.3.

Thank you!

Answer 1

From Cordova 3.3 the right call is as follows:

cordova plugin add org.apache.cordova.splashscreen

Keep in mind to use cordova cli not phonegap, phonegap uses cordova but its focus is on the phonegap build, however it still allows you to do local stuff without the build.

Answer 2

Yes, plugins work locally, not just in PhoneGap Build.

To install a new plugin (such as the Splashscreen plugin) run:

cordova plugin add https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/cordova-plugin-splashscreen.git

Implementation works the same as PhoneGap Build — see the documentation.
