Shazron Abdullah commented on CB-7539:
--------------------------------------
Note to people saying WKWebView::loadHTMLString can work... but no. You can
load the initial HTML file, but any further local assets referenced in that
file will *not* load.
The evidence points to this being a bug, and not a policy change. See
http://www.openradar.me/radar?id=5834555097350144 where xhr upload doesn't
work, presumably because it can't load the selected local file.

> Key: CB-7539
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-7539
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: iOS
> Reporter: Shazron Abdullah
> Priority: Blocker
>
> This workaround is because of this bug:
> http://www.openradar.me/radar?id=5839348817723392
> (filed with Apple of course also)
> I'm still hoping that Apple fixes this in iOS 8.1, but we should have this as
> a contingency plan.
> Create this as an included plugin, so it can be extracted later if need be.
> We need to secure access to the local webserver, probably through a session
> token in the header, since background apps can have access to the webserver.
> The session token is passed down to the initially loaded local page specified
> from the <content> tag in config.xml, and should be used in the cordova.exec
> call. We would also need to implement local proxy support , see CB-7348
> This all sounds more complex than it needs to be than just loading a file url
> -- wishing Apple would just fix this in iOS 8.1 instead.
