driesdriessen opened a new issue #723: Pass Launch Parameters to Cordova App
URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-ios/issues/723
 
 
   # Feature Request
   
   ## Motivation Behind Feature
   It is possible to launch an app with start-up parameters. This is useful for opening an app in a specific context. An example is opening an editor with a specific file. Unfortunately startup parameters currently are not passed to the Cordova app.
   
   ## Feature Description
   An app can be launched with parameters: myapp?var1=foo
   
   In the Cordova app, the parameters can be picked up:
   var url = new URL(globalThis.location;);
   var var1 =  url.searchParams.get("var1");
   
   
   ## Alternatives or Workarounds
   For IOS I currently copy this code in xCode manually to didFinishLaunchingWithOptions in CDVAppDelegate.m 
   
       // Set your app's start page by setting the <content src='foo.html' /> tag in config.xml.
       // If necessary, uncomment the line below to override it.
       NSURL *url = launchOptions[UIApplicationLaunchOptionsURLKey];
       if (url)
       {
           self.viewController.startPage = [@"index.html?" stringByAppendingString:url.query];
       } else {
           self.viewController.startPage = @"index.html";
       }
   
   It would be nice if this can become a part of the standard IOS implementation, and if a similar solution can be created for other platforms.
