Adding plugin to Meteor Cordova project downloads demo folder of >63MB

[krishnaff]

Hello there,

Thank you so much for this awesome plugin. Works flawlessly.

I just have a little issue.
I'm using Meteor framework to build a mobile app. All cordova plugins download and install in seconds (most of them are below 1MB).
This particular plugin takes a long time to download. Upon closer inspection, I realized there's a demo folder which is downloaded along with the tarball which is main reason for the long download time. This is around 63MB. Deleting this immediately speeded up things, and ofcourse it didn't effect the install. The actual source of this plugin is only around 120Kb, which is really sweet.

Unfortunately, Meteor checks and downloads all Cordova plugins on a clean compile. So I'm left with no option but to wait until the entire 63MB demo folder is downloaded along with the source and then delete it.

I'm not sure how this can be fixed, but if you could take a look, that would be of great help.

Thanks!

I'm downloading it via the
meteor add cordova:plugin-id command

Its documented here https://github.com/meteor/meteor/wiki/Meteor-Cordova-Phonegap-integration under Using Cordova plugins directly in your application

So the actual command i'm using is
meteor add cordova:org.pbernasconi.progressindicator@https://github.com/pbernasconi/cordova-progressIndicator/tarball/564981cbf5ec0c90b5cb0151c09566bf18b3b6a5
