Problem is, when I go to the Source tab of my project, I don't see anything like /lib/plugins/... nor do I see anything like /src/com/phonegap/plugins/...

How do I do this? Am I looking in the wrong place?

Hi,

Please see the screen shot attached.

Go Source Tab - Android - your app name folder-assets - www- files- resources - lib - plugins And in this folder prees gear and create new folder with needed files according to tutorial.

Thanks, Alena! So the instructions for the Android platform only?

What if I wanted to use the same phonegap plugin in both Android and IOS (after all that is the point of phonegap, right?). Where would I add to the IOS tree?

Hi, just to let you know, I am still waiting for an answer on adding phonegap plug-in in a way that will be usable for both IOS and Android. It is not clear to me if the instructions as given by Alena is good enough for both, or do I need to add something more for the IOS branch?

Hi Kal,

Unfortunately you can't add iOS PhoneGap plugin using only Appery.io.
You will need to export it to xCode and made additional changes inside your project.

Thanks for the answer, even though it is disappointing!

Phonegap plugins are inherently meant to be device-independent. If Appery.io actually uses Phonegap, it is not clear to me why a method was not provided to support this feature of Phonegap. Please take this to the product management folks as a feature request.

Thanks,
-Kal.

Ok Kal, definitely will be done. As I know integration for iOS PhoneGap plugins was in our roadmap, but let me check this.

Hello Kal!

We have this functionality in our todo list, just don't have exact time when it is going to be implemented.
