Generating iOS and Android icons in Cordova / PhoneGap
android, cordova, cordova-plugins, ios, phonegap-plugins
Solution
I wrote a script that auto generates icons for cordova using ImageMagick:
https://github.com/AlexDisler/cordova-icon
To use it, create an "icon.png" file and place it in the root folder of your project, then run:
cordova-icon
and it will generate all the required icons for the platforms your project has.
You can also configure it as a hook in your cordova project so the icons will be generated every time you build the project based on the icon.png you've added. (instructions in the readme).
Problem
I have a freshly created Cordova project with the following `config.xml` setup (used the instructions from http://docs.phonegap.com/en/edge/config_ref_images.md.html). I also added 2 platforms (iOS and Android). When I run either `cordova run ios` or `cordova run android`, the project still has the default Cordova icons. My understanding from the documentation is that Corodva is supposed to create the icons automatically based in the `icon.png` I supplied in the `config.xml`. `config.xml`: ``` <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> <widget id="com.testapp" version="1.1.2" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/ns/widgets" xmlns:cdv="http://cordova.apache.org/ns/1.0"> <name>SingleApp</name> <preference name="DisallowOverscroll" value="true" /> <preference name="AutoHideSplashScreen" value="false" /> <preference name="Orientation" value="portrait" /> <preference name="Fullscreen" value="false" /> <preference name="target-device" value="handset" /> <description> A sample Apache Cordova application that responds to the deviceready event. </description> <author email="dev@cordova.apache.org" href="http://cordova.io"> Apache Cordova Team </author> <content src="index.html" /> <access origin="*" /> <icon src="icon.png" /> </widget> ```
