Need support firefoxos platform about sockets-for-cordova

[mobratil]

Hi,

thank you very much for your request. I need to review it first. Unfortunately, I don't have any firefoxos device (I'll try some emulator), but I thing I can merge it with our master branch, as experimental support for firefoxos.

I have one question for now. You left comment in firefoxos/SocketProxy.js file, that we should modify config.xml. Could you modify that file?

Hi,

I try to modify config.xml, Add below setting:

then I build my demo-app

$ cordova platform add firefoxos
$ cordova build firefoxos

and check app/platforms/firefoxos/www/manifest.webapp

permissions settings not be add to manifest.webapp 😞

we need permission setting like below to enable tcp-socket:
"type": "privileged",
"permissions": {
"tcp-socket": {
"description" : "Create TCP sockets and communicate over them."
}
},

I add them to manifest.webapp manually.
How to make Cordova do this automatically?
Does I make something wrong in my config.xml?
