[GitHub] [cordova-plugin-camera] PegasusAwesome opened a new issue #609: Problem with NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription when source is GIT
PegasusAwesome opened a new issue #609:
URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-camera/issues/609
# Bug Report
First of all: thanks for the wonderfull plugin :)
## Problem
NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription is not included in Info.plist
### What is expected to happen?
NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription should be included in Info.plist
### What does actually happen?
NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription is not included after build
## Information
The problem happens when I define the plugin as such:
<plugin name="cordova-plugin-camera" spec="https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-camera" source="git">
<param name="CAMERA_USAGE_DESCRIPTION" value="We need access to scan qr codes and to show the buildingmanager pictures of the problem." />
<param name="PHOTOLIBRARY_USAGE_DESCRIPTION" value="We need access to scan qr codes and to show the buildingmanager pictures of the problem." />
</plugin>
The problem does NOT happen when I define the plugin as this:
<plugin name="cordova-plugin-camera" source="npm" spec="=4.1.0">
<param name="CAMERA_USAGE_DESCRIPTION" value="We need access to scan qr codes and to show the buildingmanager pictures of the problem." />
<param name="PHOTOLIBRARY_USAGE_DESCRIPTION" value="We need access to scan qr codes and to show the buildingmanager pictures of the problem." />
</plugin>
I've tried adding the following to the config.xml file, to prevent the problem:
<config-file parent="NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription" platform="ios" target="*-Info.plist">
<string>We need access to scan qr codes and to show the buildingmanager pictures of the problem.</string>
</config-file>
And also:
<edit-config target="NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription" file="*-Info.plist" mode="merge">
<string>We need access to scan qr codes and to show the buildingmanager pictures of the problem.</string>
</edit-config>
But both those config entries do not resolve the problem.
Ps.: I need the 4.2.0 version, because of the fixes for video.
### Command or Code
The problem occurs as soon as I place this string in the config.xml:
<plugin name="cordova-plugin-camera" spec="https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-camera" source="git">
<param name="CAMERA_USAGE_DESCRIPTION" value="We need access to scan qr codes and to show the buildingmanager pictures of the problem." />
<param name="PHOTOLIBRARY_USAGE_DESCRIPTION" value="We need access to scan qr codes and to show the buildingmanager pictures of the problem." />
</plugin>
### Environment, Platform, Device
Phonegap build => upload to iOS
### Version information
Phonegap CLI
cordova-plugin-camera from git
iOS

Hiya,
> the plugin doesn't add usage descriptions, you have to add them using `edit-config` tags in `config.xml`
>
> ```
> <edit-config target="NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription" file="*-Info.plist" mode="merge">
> <string>need photo library access to get pictures from there</string>
> </edit-config>
> ```
As you can read in my report, I've literally tried doing exactly that.
And when I use one version of the plugin that works. However, with the latest version of cordova-camera-plugin, the NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription disappears from info.plist.
So, to me it seems that this is a plugin issue. One version of the plugin: no problem, other version of the plugin: there is a problem. The plugin version is iterally the only difference I make between my two test config.xmls.
Of course, if this should be reported to the cordova cli repo, I'd be happy to do so, just seems a plugin problem.
Best,
Marcel

Ok, so the fact that the only difference between my two config.xml files is the plugin version, doesn't indicate that this is a plugin problem.
Apologies if this sounds a bit bitter, this whole problem just baffles me.
Anyways, thanks for looking into this and have a nice day.

the plugin doesn't add usage descriptions, you have to add them using `edit-config` tags in `config.xml`
```
<edit-config target="NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription" file="*-Info.plist" mode="merge">
<string>need photo library access to get pictures from there</string>
</edit-config>
```

Just noticed you use phonegap build, as far as I remember they use a slightly different syntax for the edit-config and config-file entries, that could be the problem too.

Just tried all possible combinations: without params, with params, without edit-config, with params. Nothing works.
The camera usage string can be found in the info.plist, but the photolibrary usage string is never in the info plist.
Well, unless I use the older npm version...
Anybody got any idea or workaround?

The thing that adds the NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription is the CLI, not the plugin, so it’s imposible that this is a plugin issue.

if edit-config is not working fine, then you should report it in cordova-cli repo, but it's not a plugin issue, closing
