Can that be used with PhoneGap Build?
@jezmck Yeah, it's documented in the plugins readme. All you need to do is setup the proper tag in your config.xml.
<gap:plugin name="phonegap-plugin-push" source="npm" />
Hello Simon !
I would like to know your opinion, is this new plugin better than the Push plugin ? If so, why ?
Thanks :)
@jerryone3 well this plugin is based off of the push plugin you referenced but it's two main advantages are 1) consistent API and 2) actively maintained.
Okay, thanks ! I might follow it for some time and give it a try in a few weeks :)
I'm probably asking a stupid question here, but I can't find any information about it in docs, discussions or google.
Can this plugin only be used with Phonegap as opposed to Cordova? Is there any way to make it work in Cordova projects?
@Martin there are no stupid questions there are only my sarcastic answers.
Yes, this plugin works with Cordova as well as PhoneGap. PhoneGap is just the Adobe distribution of Cordova and are fully compatible with each other.
