Answer 1

After a lot of struggle I found the solution for the above problem.

1. Create Cordova Project(suppose CordovaDemo) through CLI
2. Add the platform android
3. Add the your own plugin your.js file inside the js of CordovaDemo/www/js/your.js

4. Edit the CordovaDemo/www/index.html Add below script tag

   < script type="text/javascript" src="js/your.js">

5. Add your YourPlugin.java file inside the src of your android platform

6.Add this inside res/xml/config.xml

 < feature name="YourPlugin">

           < param name="android-package" value="yourpackage.YourPlugin" />

       < /feature>

Import android project in eclipse and run

If you create a plugin.xml file in your custom plugin directory (read this doc on how to do this: http://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/3.1.0/plugin_ref_spec.md ), you should be able to either:

• put the plugin up on a git repository somewhere (I've only used github, but any git repo should work: cordova plugin add http://github.com/youraccount/yourrepo/
• put the plugin somewhere on a filesystem: cordova plugin add relative/path/to/dir/containing/plugin.xml or cordova plugin add /absolution/path/to/dir/containing/plugin.xml

Using the plugin.xml lets you leverage the automatic injection of xml into the config.xml, etc.
