Cordova Google Play Services / Firebase versions adapter

Many plugins use Google Play Services or Firebase and some of them are stick to a concrete version:

• Cordova plugin Admob latest
• Google analytics plugin latest
• Phonegap plugin push 11.6.2
• Google maps 15.0.1

When some or all of these plugins are used together, this may cause incompatibilities and the application will fail to build (see issues in https://github.com/appfeel/admob-google-cordova/issues/97, https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugin-push/issues/2511, https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugin-push/issues/2360).

This is because all plugins that use Google Play Services in an application must be using the same version. It's also not possible to decrease the version of Google Play Services because there may be unnimplemented features in lower versions that are required by the plugin.

This plugin will analyze all libraries being used by the application, see which is the version that most of them are compatible with and align the versions. All of this is done transparently, so the developer doesn't need to take care on which is the Google Play Services version that will compatibilize the different plugins. So it allows to add many different plugins using different Google Play Services without worrying anymore about the different Google Play Services library versions mess.

Simply install this plugin and it will take care of optimizing the versions of Google Play Services at prepare, compile or run time.

Quick start

To install this plugin, read the Command-line Interface Guide and use one of the following command lines:

• cordova plugin add cordova-play-services-version-adapter
• ionic cordova plugin add cordova-play-services-version-adapter

How it works

As soon as the application compiles, all versions of Google Play Services plugins are automatically aligned, showing up a final report about compatibilization changes carried out.

Success example:

'Cordova Play Services Version Adapter' has successfully applied the following changes:
    - 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-analytics:+' => 15.0.0
    - 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:15.0.1' => 15.0.0
    - 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:15.0.1' => 15.0.0
    - 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:11.6.2' => 15.0.0

Error example:

'Cordova Play Services Version Adapter' has detected an error. The following dependencies of 'Google Play Services' are not compatible:
    - 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:17.0.0'
    - 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-analytics:+'
    - 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:15.0.1'
    - 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:15.0.1'
    - 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:11.6.2'

It doesn't exists a version of 'Google Play Services' that includes all these dependencies.
All dependencies of 'Google Play Services' must have the same version.
The application may not compile.
