[jira] [Commented] (CB-1475) Allow Cleaver to use as a wwwFolderName an absolute path (eg. ~/Library)

["Shazron Abdullah (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-1475?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13457421#comment-13457421 ] 

Shazron Abdullah commented on CB-1475:
--------------------------------------

I can see how this might be useful for testing in the iOS Simulator, but not on device where everything is sandboxed though (you can load from the Library/temp/Documents folder of your app of course).

I think a better approach is to add another property to CDVViewController, say "wwwFolderPath" which when set, acts as the base folder.

> Currently - (NSString*) pathForResource:(NSString*)resourcepath returns the path based on the current [NSBundle]. However one might be interested in loading the application from an absolute path (e.g. user's ~/Library). 
> Take this snippet for instance:
> NSString *libraryPath = [NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSLibraryDirectory,NSUserDomainMask, YES) lastObject];
> NSString *folderPath   = [libraryPath stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"www"];
>     
> cdvViewController.wwwFolderName = folderPath;
