[jira] [Commented] (CB-10967) IndexedDB API not properly exposed?

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-10967?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15212565#comment-15212565 ] 

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

To reproduce all that should be needed is a fresh app with the latest components Cordova@6+ and Cordova-iOS@4+.

Build it and inspect for the webkit version of IndexDB api.

>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: iOS
>    Affects Versions: 4.0.0
>         Environment: Cordova CLI 6.x.x, Cordova-iOS 4.x.x

> 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 cordova-ios@3.9.2(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.
