Feature Request: Take config.xml and added plugins on reload

[bwinchester]

I already asked on the App site Disqus and would like to see the reload feature take and apply config.xml changes and new plugins added to it.

Also, This app is great for first timers, but it appears the webview this app uses to mock your app is already set to webviewbounce: False. It should be realistic as possible so people don't miss anything.

Thanks for adding the config.xml request @bwinchester.

At the moment, the official plugins should work out-of-the-box but no other config.xml are respected. I've marked this as an enhancement and put it onto our backlog. I agree that settings such as webviewbounce should be supported.

Unfortunately not being able to set <access origin="..."/> is a blocker for me to use this app as I have to AJAX external services. Not sure if this would be doable without releasing the app with all possible permissions and stuff like that.

@Eccenux we're working on enabling XHR access to external services on #98. I'll be continuing work on it right after I finish this comment :) I hope that will help you out!

[mwbrooks]

@Eccenux You should now be able to make AJAX requests to external services after updating your PhoneGap CLI to 3.4.0-0.19.21.

OS X or Linux

$ sudo npm install -g phonegap

Windows

$ npm install -g phonegap

If you discover any problems, please let us know!

(I'll leave this issue open for the config.xml topic)

My PhoneGap CLI version is 4.2.0-0.23.0 and if I delete everything from from config.xml app on phone works. Anything I change in config.xml doesn't affect app.

When I set src on img elemetnt to file://sdcard/myfolder/my.jpg nothing is displayed and there is no 404 error on output. Does this has anything with access origin in config.xml.

Can I set access origin in config.xml?

[mwbrooks]

@borodjuka At the moment, the PhoneGap Developer App completely ignores the config.xml file. We would like to improve this later on!

For your own convenience, we've opened the access element up, so you should be able to access external services without issues.

@mwbrooks hi, what do you mean by "At the moment, the PhoneGap Developer App completely ignores the config.xml file. ", does this mean we can not config PhoneGap Developer App?

Also, I can not use core plugins such as camera and contacts, since the config.xml doesn't matter, then what should I set in order to use these core plugins ?

Please shed light on how to make it, it really make me frustrated.
