Somehow in my app many of the cordova plugins are installed and because of that it requires access to almost everything - from my contacts to current location ( even though
python -c "import subprocess as sp;[sp.call('cordova plugin rm ' + p.split()[0], shell=True) for p in sp.check_output('cordova plugin', shell=True).split('\n') if p]"
Obviously it doesn't handle any sort of error conditions, but it gets the job done.
