Note: as of 2024/02 this is project is no longer maintained but should keep working. I consider the tool as complete (it has been for some time now) and don't use cordova anymore.

cordova-multiconfig

Small tool to support using multiple cordova configs inside one repository.

Use-Cases:

• different configs for beta releases
• different configs for paid/free versions
• ...

Install

  npm i -g cordova-multiconfig

Example usage

Create

  # creates a new cordova config 'config.beta.xml' based upon the current config.xml
  cordova-multiconfig --create beta

Activate

The current config.xml is backed up to be restored later. The specified config-file is renamed to 'config.xml' and will then be used by cordova.

  # activate the beta-config and backup the current config to be restored later
  cordova-multiconfig --activate beta

Deactivate

The current config.xml will be renamed to config.[NAME].xml The config backup will be restored to config.xml and will then be used by cordova.

  # deactivate the beta-config and restore the config backup
  cordova-multiconfig --deactivate beta
