Description

@implementation CDVDevice

• (void)getDeviceInfo:(CDVInvokedUrlCommand*)command
  {
  /* Settings.plist

• Read the optional Settings.plist file and push these user-defined settings down into the web application.
• This can be useful for supplying build-time configuration variables down to the app to change its behavior,
• such as specifying Full / Lite version, or localization (English vs German, for instance).
  */
  // TODO: turn this into an iOS only plugin
  NSDictionary* temp = [CDVViewController getBundlePlist:@"Settings"];

if ([temp respondsToSelector:@selector(JSONString)])

{ NSString* js = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"window.Settings = %@;", [temp JSONString]]; [self.commandDelegate evalJs:js]; }

No docs mention the feature.
You could accomplish x-platform & without a plugin by XHR'ing a .json file from your app directory.
