How to add parameters to iOS Info.plist

Hello,

In order to allow bluetooth applications work in the background on iOS devices, there are couple of parameters which need to be appended to the Info.plist. Here is the documentation:

I thought of using hooks with cordoba-custom-config plugin but apparently XDK doesn't support hooks. So, what would be a proper XDK way to achieve the same result? Can this be automated with the XDK builds in some other way?

Thank you in advance...

Generally, this can be done by creating a simple plugin that consists of a plugin.xml file with directives to add to your plist file. See this FAQ for some help > https://software.intel.com/en-us/xdk/faqs/general#android-manifest <
