XDK Cordova builds deprecated

as is now can create an Apple iOS cert request , and proceed create new provisioning profiles? My iOS cert expired what to do... i still use xdk cordova

You cannot create any new iOS

PaulF_IntelCorp — Sat, 01 Jul 2017 18:06:03 GMT

You cannot create any new iOS certificates with the XDK. I recommend you follow the instructions for creating a cert on the PhoneGap Build page > http://docs.phonegap.com/phonegap-build/signing/ios/ < to create some new iOS certs. We have disabled the ability to create and add new certs in the XDK build system because that build system will be disabled in about a week. See the release notes for more details > https://software.intel.com/en-us/xdk/docs/release-notes-information-intel-xdk <

Dear developer,

We have discovered one or more issues with your recent delivery for "Polis Cyprus". To process your delivery, the following issues must be corrected:

Missing Info.plist key - This app attempts to access privacy-sensitive data without a usage description. The app's Info.plist must contain an NSCalendarsUsageDescription key with a string value explaining to the user how the app uses this data.

Once these issues have been corrected, you can then redeliver the corrected binary.

I would expect there is a

PaulF_IntelCorp — Mon, 17 Jul 2017 15:22:01 GMT

I would expect there is a variable that needs to be set for whatever plugin you are using that is attempting to access that data. However, I cannot be certain. I recommend you search the StackOverflow PhoneGap threads and the PhoneGap forum for some help with how to update your info.plist file. You should also check with the plugin author regarding how to do this, since I don't know what plugin is causing this, I cannot point to that repo.

PaulF_IntelCorp — Mon, 17 Jul 2017 19:35:50 GMT

I suspect it's in one of these, you'll have to look more closely at the plugin.xml file for each one to see if it is trying to update the plist file:

<plugin name="cordova-plugin-contacts" spec="2.0.1"/>
<plugin name="cordova-plugin-x-socialsharing" spec="5.0.12"/>
<plugin name="cordova-plugin-google-analytics" spec="0.8.1"/>
<plugin name="cordova-plugin-admobpro" spec="2.16.1"/>
<plugin name="cordova-plugin-extension" spec="1.5.1"/>

If you search for each plugin in the Cordova plugin registry, you'll find a link in the plugin description to the Git repo. In that Git repo you can inspect the plugin more closely and read the documentation. For example:

Go here > https://cordova.apache.org/plugins/
Search for cordova-plugin-contacts (which takes you here > https://cordova.apache.org/plugins/?q=cordova-plugin-contacts)
Select the matching plugin (which takes you here > https://www.npmjs.com/package/cordova-plugin-contacts)
Find the link to the github repo in the right-hand column (https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-contacts)
Read the plugin documentation and you'll find the solution you're looking for...

You may have to search for some help on how to set that string when using PhoneGap Build, I do not know the solution for that, but this should get you headed in the right direction.

iOS Quirks

Since iOS 10 it's mandatory to add a NSContactsUsageDescription entry in the info.plist.

NSContactsUsageDescription describes the reason that the app accesses the user’s contacts. When the system prompts the user to allow access, this string is displayed as part of the dialog box. To add this entry you can pass the variable CONTACTS_USAGE_DESCRIPTION on plugin install.

Example: cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-contacts --variable CONTACTS_USAGE_DESCRIPTION="your usage message"

If you don't pass the variable, the plugin will add an empty string as value.

PaulF_IntelCorp — Mon, 17 Jul 2017 21:06:02 GMT

I suspect you'll need to modify your config.xml file using what's described here > http://docs.phonegap.com/phonegap-build/configuring/config-file-element/ < or, even simpler, searching the Adobe PhoneGap Build forums this technique should work > https://forums.adobe.com/message/9292783#9292783 < meaning something like this in the config.xml should do it:

PaulF_IntelCorp — Wed, 19 Jul 2017 00:25:28 GMT

Don't know which plugin (if any) is causing that. You'll have to do some research, using the procedure I outlined in this post > https://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/intel-xdk/topic/737757#comment-1909068 < but you may have to expand the search to all of your plugins. Find the git repo that contains the plugins, inspect the README and the plugin.xml file to see if there is a reference to the Calendars Usage key, if it can be addressed as a parameter, use the technique above, otherwise, use the config-element approach which is also referenced in one of my previous posts. Review the contacts plugin plugin.xml file as an example of what you're looking for > https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-contacts/blob/master/plugin.xml#L128 <

PaulF_IntelCorp — Wed, 19 Jul 2017 21:09:38 GMT

Yes, if you provide the details in the config.xml file it will be inserted into the info.plist file. That's what those PhoneGap Build config-element tags are for, so you don't have to modify those Xcode files directly (because you cannot modify them if you are using PhoneGap Build, because those files are created when the project that will be built is created, in the cloud). The only time you could modify the info.plist file directly is if you were to use Cordova CLI, where you can see the entire Xcode project, in addition to the Cordova project.

PaulF_IntelCorp — Sun, 23 Jul 2017 23:34:07 GMT

Eddy has fixed the issue with his calendar plugin, if you look at the plugin.xml file you'll see there is a variable that can be set (which, if he did it correctly, gets transferred to the plist file) > https://github.com/EddyVerbruggen/Calendar-PhoneGap-Plugin/blob/master/plugin.xml#L52 <

However, you're not using the plugin (at least according to the list you gave me), so you should probably post your issue with him on the social-sharing repo, not in the calendar repo. That is, if you are sure that is the source of the problem. Certainly, you can reference the issue in the other plugin to help him understand what you are asking, but you might want to confirm where the problem is coming from.
