Brent Allen commented on CB-10967:
----------------------------------

To be clear, the bug you are referring to that requires the local server is
the one specific to iOS 8 and it's issue with file://. Correct?

I took another look at the Cordova plugin to force wkwebview. And it seems
to claim that 9 is good to go now. If that is the case I think I will just
triage 8.

That must be why I thought wkwebview was enabled by default now. For some
reason I thought that the fix was for 8 as well.

I will try it on 9 when I get a chance, cuz I can't go back to the local
server and I can't go back to 3.9.2 either. I am pretty sure something is
broken with the Google Maps plugin at that version. But I seem to remember
that one working fine with all of the latest code before I discovered the
missing webkit.

Thanks for the help.

>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: iOS
>    Affects Versions: 4.0.0
>         Environment: Cordova CLI 6.x.x, Cordova-iOS 4.x.x
>            Reporter: Brent Allen
>
> So before cordova-ios 4.0.0 I was using 
> https://github.com/Telerik-Verified-Plugins/WKWebView.git as a workaround to 
> get the extra webkit apis/performance.
> Clearly not an ideal workaround since it requires a localhost origin. Making 
> several CORS and iFrame operations a major headache.
> So I need to update to the latest frameworks. And I was successful in doing 
> so with one catch.
> The webkit api for IndexDB is not exposed anymore. I am a little confused as 
> to how this could be since it was expose when using the workaround. The only 
> diff that I can find that seems to relate to webkit is this:
> From 'plugins/com.telerik.plugins.wkwebview/www/wkwebview.js'
> ```
> var origNativeFetchMessages = exec.nativeFetchMessages;
>         exec.nativeFetchMessages = function() {
>                 var cmds = origNativeFetchMessages();
>                 cmds = JSON.parse(cmds);
>                 for(var i=0;i<cmds.length;i++) {
>                         var cmd = cmds[i];
>                         if(cmd[1]==='WKWebView') continue;
>                         
> window.webkit.messageHandlers.cordova.postMessage(cmd);
>                 }
>                 return '';
>         };
> ```
> Which was also still available in [email protected](I think)
> I can't help but wonder if this has something to do with exposing the open 
> versions of the api(s). And if so was this supposed to be re-implemented 
> using the latest patterns?
> I am using mWater/minimongo which relies on this api. I already opened an 
> issue on that repo. But I am not optimistic that it will be addressed there 
> since the api hasn't technically changed as far as I can tell. It is just 
> being hidden by the webview and the cordova platform is no longer exposing it 
> manually.
> Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I am hoping to avoid cloning the 
> minimongo repo. Since I am not even sure the apples implementation will work 
> as I have yet to find any documentation on it.
> I am also concerned that this may have implications for other webkit apis 
> that I have yet to discover as broken in this context.
> Thanks in advance for any help.
