Unable to install custom cordova plugin to android platform after updating to cordova android 7.0.0

I have created one cordova plugin and it was working fine with old cordova android versions (< 7.0.0). once i updated to cordova-android 7.0.0 from cli am unable to install my plugin even after updating plugin.xml based on cordova blog.

i can able to install some other plugins even those having cordova android 7 dependency. and tried both the options

<config-file target="app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml" parent="/manifest/application">

and 

<config-file target="AndroidManifest.xml" parent="/manifest/application">

UPDATE

if i remove my custom build.gradle

<framework src="src/android/abcPlugin.gradle" custom="true" type="gradleReference" />

its working..

This is the error am getting with my custom build.gradle .

cordova plugin add ../cordova-plugin-abc --save
Installing "cordova-plugin-abc" for android

Error during processing of action! Attempting to revert...

Failed to install 'cordova-plugin-abc': Error: Uh oh!

Solution

  • Fixed by updating target for the two files.

    for aar lib file :

    target-dir="app/src/main/libs"

    and for java file :

    target-dir="src/com/abc"

    <source-file src="src/android/abc/abc.aar" target-dir="app/src/main/libs" framework="true" />
<source-file src="src/android/com/abc/CordovaPluginAABC.java" target-dir="src/com/rak/abc" />

    and gradle extension also working fine without any chnage
