I am proposing to integrate the aforementioned branch into the mainline, for a cordova-ios 3.8.0 release in the future.
I will do testing using mobile-spec and the core plugins before I do this merge, and report back my findings to the list (including docs). I intend to spend the rest of the week on this. Contrary to the name of the branch, this does *not* include direct WKWebView support. It merely re-factors some of the cordova-ios code so that the webview used can be loaded as a plugin. The default webview engine used will always be UIWebView if not specified, and it is included as a plugin in the core platform. Each webview engine handles parsing its own preferences, and setting up its own bridge (however, this is still dependent on cordova.js having the bridge support -- perhaps in the future each webview plugin can set its own bridge independently of cordova-js repo). Related notes below -- but the state of the plugins below do *not* block the wkwebview branch merge at all. Related notes: -------------------------- The WKWebView engine plugin which requires the cordova-ios/wkwebview branch, resides in https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugins/tree/master/wkwebview-engine The WKWebView engine plugin is dependent on this local-webserver plugin: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugins/tree/master/local-webserver The local-webserver plugin is in experimental stage -- it still needs to be tested with the Camera and File plugin since it facilitates setting a url transformer that maps urls to the appropriate localhost urls. Camera already has this code integrated, File has a pull request pending. Those are the only two plugins affected.
