Version 1.1.6 is breaking android builds

[akshayakrsh]

Hi @dpa99c,

The version 1.1.6 is breaking the android builds for us. The error we get is:

/var/lib/jenkins/jobs/Mobile-App-Build/workspace/Cordova/plugins/cordova-custom-config/hooks/applyCustomConfig.js:396
st'), xcode = require('xcode'), tostr = require('tostr'), fileUtils = require(
                                                                    ^
ReferenceError: fileUtils is not defined
    at applyCustomConfig.init (/var/lib/jenkins/jobs/Mobile-App-Build/workspace/Cordova/plugins/cordova-custom-config/hooks/applyCustomConfig.js:400:79)

Any idea why?

[dpa99c]

Looks like I introduced another race condition while trying to fix other race conditions :-(

I can't reproduce it with Android platform on Windows, so (going by your paths) it may be specific to Android on OSX. I don't have Android SDK setup on my Mac right now, but will setup and try to repro when I have some time later.

In the meantime:

What operation appears to cause the error? prepare, platform add, platform rm, plugin add, plugin rm?

I see you're using Jenkins so the build is automated, but if possible can you manually run the offending operation from the CLI with --verbose argument and post the log output here?

I've tested android on OSX and can't reproduce the error you're seeing.

I've created a couple of regression test scripts in the example project. Could you run the android one in your build environment and see if the error occurs?

This is the output I get from running regression_test/android.sh on OSX:

Hey,

Thanks for ur reply. Apologies for the delayed response. So, the build we are doing is using Jenkins on a RHEL 6 server not on my OSX machine. I will still try ur solution and add the logs here.

Thnx!

OK, I've managed to reproduce the error when removing the plugin from the project. Will try to find the cause and fix...

[dpa99c]

Commit 499a1f6 fixes the issue caused by trying to resolve dependencies when the plugin is being removed. I'm going to push this out to npm as part of v1.1.7. Let me know if that fixes your issue or not.

Problem still exists in cordova-custom-config@3.1.2 ? Error when removing or compiling:
cordova-custom-config: Error loading dependencies (Cannot find module 'lodash') - attempting to resolve
Installing lodash doesn't seem to help either. Thoughts?
