Improve Cordova Plugin documentation

[scriptPilot]

I want to use a Cordova plugin for local badge updates. After reading the documentation, it's still not clear to me how to use the plugin properly in my Capacitor app.

Herewith I kindly ask to update the documentation accordingly and propose a solution.

Thanks for the feedback. In the docs, we have:

npm install cordova-plugin-name
npx cap sync

In this case, the plugin name is "cordova-plugin-badge" so you'd run:

npm install cordova-plugin-badge
npx cap sync

I'm honestly not sure how to make that more clear, but I'd love to know: do you have any suggestions?

Maybe documentation could describe how to manually apply configuration by mapping between the plugin's plugin.xml and required settings on iOS and Android?

[dotNetkow]

@kodemi yes, good catch. On the same page, we have this paragraph that directs you to exactly that.

@dotNetkow - Maybe I missed something. For me it's not clear how to use the plugin ... window.Cordova is undefined. Do you have an example somewhere?

You use the plugin the same way you would use it in a Cordova project.

The plugin uses cordova, not Cordova, case matters.
