Start versioning plugin and Publish to NPM
We should start versioning this plugin and publishing it NPM to prevent breaking app integrations in the future. Currently there is another plugin with the same name which is occupying the cordova-plugin-webserver namespace. I've reached out to the maintainers to see if its possible to merge the two projects.
If there is no response we should consider publishing it under a different alias. cordova-plugin-http-server perhaps?
I already tried to contact them. I also asked npm to escalate and give me the permission to publish over the name cordova-plugin-webserver, because there wasn't a commit since 30 Nov 2018. Nothing helped...
Let's try again and if nothing will help than we can just publish it over a different name.
cordova-plugin-http-server sounds good in first place
@bykof Got a reply yesterday from the other repo that they've deprecated the plugin and moved the ownership to NPM. They recommend contacting NPM to discuss how to proceed.
@bykof After some back and forth with NPM they we're willing to transfer the cordova-plugin-namespace to me. I recommend that after reviewing open issues and PR's we publish an initial release to NPM.
NPM's response:
The cordova-plugin-webserver package is now all yours now, but you won’t be able to re-use any version numbers used by the previous author. In fact, I'd suggest publishing your first update as a major release, i.e., v1.0.0. Please publish an update to the package as soon as possible with your code.
