is it just in React? If it was angular, I‘d suggest markForCheck() in the changedetection reference. If it’s the browser not detecting that it has to repaint, that should solve the issue

I am getting this error on upgrading iOS to 6.1.1 and I am getting this error error: Named colors do not work prior to iOS 11.0. on CI. Can anyone guide me in fixing this ?

@gh says

Are you specifying deployment-target in your config.xml? You may be specifying to build for an old version of iOS. Try changing to to this: <preference name="deployment-target" value="12.0"/>

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 10:39:09 GMT

@gh says

Or not specifying it at all.

cordova-ios@6.1.1 showing me white screen on start, got to know that there are some changes wrt splash screen. Removed older <splash> tags and kept only one. Still seeing the white screen. LaunchStoryboard has the image I gave in <splash> in config.xml. But on start it is not showing... anything I am missing !!

@niklasmerz could you please help me add your cordova-ios proxy branch to my project? I'm still getting that error after removing node-modules

@pablo.caselas says

by the way, are you taking care of utf8 characters on cordova-ios? on your ionic webview branch, I had to change it to

 NSURL * requestUrl = [NSURL URLWithString:webStringURL];```

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 13:06:15 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

Otherwise, if startPath had a character like this... “รก” requestUrl would be nil and the app would break

@pablo.caselas says

I must be something wrong for adding cordova-ios because if I add it like this: cordova platform add ios it works just fine, but if i add it like this cordova platform add ../cordova-ios , I get the error and I can't install it

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 13:09:17 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

../cordova-ios is your branch downloaded locally + I've executed npm install on it

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 13:15:04 GMT

@niklasmerz says

I always install the branch directly from github or a local folder without problems. Something else must be not working correctly for your app

@pablo.caselas says

I‘ve upgraded from cordova-9 to cordova-10 but now I can’t install cordova-ios and I don‘t know what’s going on

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:19:08 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

I‘m also using node 14, I don’t know if it's supported

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:20:44 GMT

@norman137 says

are you using npm 7?

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:28:10 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

nope

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:28:12 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

hang on

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:30:09 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

am I doing something wrong?

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:35:03 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

I installed 7.0.1 but I have the same errors

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:38:04 GMT

@norman137 says

It's just that the cannot determine package name from output error is a known issue starting from npm7

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:38:34 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

aha

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:38:47 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

I was using 6.x

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:38:56 GMT

@norman137 says

Just wanted to rule the possibility you were using the npm 7 beta or something

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:39:49 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

but upgraded to npm7

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:39:50 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

back to 6 but... still failing

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:39:50 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

6.14.8 to be exact

@pablo.caselas says

when doing cordova plaftorm add ios

Failed to fetch platform cordova-ios@^6.1.1
Probably this is either a connection problem, or platform spec is incorrect.
Check your connection and platform name/version/URL.

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:40:48 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

this is a clean project created with cordova 10

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:41:46 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

if it had something to do with connection... it shouldn't fail for local folder, right?

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:42:14 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

could anybody please create an empty project and add cordova-ios and see that it works just fine?

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:42:22 GMT

@norman137 says

How are you constructing your cordova platform add command?

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:42:53 GMT

@norman137 says

cause it doesn‘t look like you’re attempting to install from a local folder, looks like you're attempting to install from npm

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:45:43 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

I also do cordova platform add ../cordova-ios but it fails as well

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:47:05 GMT

@norman137 says

I'm not sure if this makes a difference but when I install from local fs, I prefix the path with file: sooo cordova platform add file:../cordova-ios

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:47:11 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:49:00 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

just to make sure I have ../cordova-ios in place

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:57:51 GMT

@dpogue says

Maybe try with the full path instead of a relative one? cordova platform add file:///Users/pablo/full/path/to/cordova-ios

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:57:58 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

ok

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:58:30 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

same thing

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 16:12:17 GMT

@erisu says

What if you run npm pack on the forked clone and then try with the tarbal it created to see?

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 19:24:31 GMT

@pablo.caselas says

@erisu that does work thanks!
