Not getting option of run on "Device" for a cordova windows phone app in visual studio 2013

I have developed a windows app with cordova. I can run that App on "local machine" and "Simulator" in visual studio. but to build that app in my windows phone, I am not getting option of "Device" to run in my phone. I'm using this command "cordova run windows --device -- --phone" on command prompt to run that App in my phone. that is working fine. But I need to build the App in my mobile through Visual studio2013. tell me how to get get the option of "Device" to run.

You need the Visual Studio Tools for Apache Cordova.

then follow:

  1. With your app open in Visual Studio, choose Windows Phone 8 or Windows Phone (Universal) from the Solution Platforms list. If you don’t see this option, choose Solution Platforms from the Add/Remove Buttons list to display it.
  2. Choose Device.

  3. Press F5 to start the app

    Visual Studio starts the app on the connected Windows Phone device.

You can find link for VS studio Tools for Apache Cordova in the link below -
