[UNMAINTAINED] Very simple plugin to run cordova commands with a simple interface from gulp

Overview

Gulp-Cordova presents a practical solution for developers who frequently use Cordova within a Gulp build system. This plugin streamlines the process of running Cordova commands, reducing the need to jump back and forth between the command line interface (CLI) and your coding environment. With the aim of simplifying project initialization and ongoing development, it allows users to maintain their workflow within the Gulp ecosystem.

While still in its early stages, Gulp-Cordova offers a basic yet functional interface that can be adapted to fit individual project needs. It's a handy tool for those looking to integrate Cordova commands smoothly into their Gulp tasks, making development less cumbersome and more efficient.

Features

  • Basic Interface: Provides a simple setup to incorporate Cordova commands into a Gulp build system without complex configurations.
  • JSON Configuration Support: Allows users to define commands through a JSON file, making it easier to manage multiple tasks.
  • Parameter Passing: Users can directly send parameters to Cordova functions, bypassing the JSON file for quick command execution.
  • Watch Tasks Compatibility: Integrates well with watch tasks in Gulp, enabling automatic re-runs of commands when specific files are modified.
  • Community Collaboration: Encourages user contributions through PRs, fostering a community-oriented development process.
  • Lightweight and Experimental: As a light plugin, it remains focused on core functionalities with room for expansion based on user feedback.
