title: "Plugins Release" categories: news
The following plugins were updated today:
In the recent cordova@8
tools release, we dropped support for deprecated platforms (Ubuntu, BlackBerry10, Windows Phone 8, FirefoxOS). The main focus of this plugins release was to drop support for those platforms as well. That is why many of the plugins have had major version increases.
cordova-plugin-contacts
and cordova-plugin-globalization
have officially been deprecated. Read about our decision to deprecate cordova-plugin-contacts
at https://cordova.apache.org/news/2017/11/27/Deprecation-of-cordova-contacts-plugin.html. For cordova-plugin-globalization
, we have written a migration guide over to the built-in ECMA Internationalization API at https://cordova.apache.org/news/2017/11/20/migrate-from-cordova-globalization-plugin.html.
You can update any plugin by removing it, and then re-adding it.
E.g. To update your camera plugin:
