My Ionic is working with socket.io in a webview. But when I try to compile my app to android, it seems that socket.io cannot connect to my nodejs server.
As I console everything to my node server for connection events, it doesn't trigger the connection event as seen below:
io.on('connection',function(socket){
console.log('My socket id is '+socket.id);
});
My node console works properly when I try to run the app in a browser. But using the android app extracted from cordova it seems it cannot connect.
UPDATE: this is my config.xml file in my app
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<widget id="com.myapp.pagemanager" version="0.0.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/ns/widgets" xmlns:cdv="http://cordova.apache.org/ns/1.0">

SO'ers.

Recently I created a Cordova app for my html5 game created in Cocos Creator engine.
After some time, I noticed the app running on android not as smooth as in browser. I googled a lot of questions but all they said problem is Cordova using some default Web View what have bad performance. I tried a lot of solutions, but no one helped me.
Today I noticed, when I run my app, touch screen and don't leave my finger, the app starts to run very smoothly (as in browser). I am wondering what is the reason of such behaviour?
Maybe there is some acceleration what start to run only when I touch the screen?
Also, any advices how I can fix lagging in Cordova android build are welcomed.
Solutions I tried:
Plugins:
ionic-webview,
crosswark-webview
setting
android:hardwareAccelerated
true/false
in the manifest
Some other small solutions from internet, I currently can't remember. No One of this helped my. Only when I touch the screen I see performance boost.
This issue occurs only on my new phone (was bought in 2020),
in the old one (2017) app runs smoothly without touch.
Thanks!

I have an angular app which I try to wrap in a cordova application for android. But I fail at whitelisting the requests against a server, when the cordova app on android.
When testing the cordova application as a browser application, there are no problems.
I've already read many articles and posts regarding the whitelisting behaviour on cordova, but without any results.
I'm using cordova 10. As I read, I should not use the cordova-plugin-whitelist, because in this version this plugin is already integrated in the main framework. The configuration in config.xml was already generated automatic when creating the project.
Here is my config.xml:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<widget id="de.acme.app" version="1.0.0" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/ns/widgets"
xmlns:cdv="http://cordova.apache.org/ns/1.0">
<name>appname</name>

</platform>
</widget>
As you see, the tag with the access origin is available.
I have no plugins installed. But I also tried to install the cordova-plugin-whitelist. But this also makes no difference.
The requests in Angular are standard GET requests with the HTTPClient. But also other requests does not work. For example the embedding of google fonts.
The server, I want to access with my GET requests is a server in my LAN with the following address: 192.168.178.5:4003 (specific port!)
In Logcat I receive this error message:
I/chromium: [INFO:CONSOLE(1)] "request: http://192.168.178.5:4003/api/audiobooks/tags", source: file:///android_asset/www/main.a7f87f00e27ff7637d70.js (1)
W/SystemWebViewClient: URL blocked by whitelist: http://192.168.178.5:4003/api/audiobooks/tags
I think, this is just a small configuration problem. But I have no idea, where I should look for a correct solution.
Thank you
If you use HTTP, you might need to allow Android to use clear text traffic. See: https://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/dev/guide/platforms/android/index.html#android-quirks
If you are on cordova-android 10 make sure to use the latest version (10.1.0), as it contains important bug fixes.
Im trying to create a angular app using Alfresco adf components (https://github.com/Alfresco/alfresco-ng2-components) and need to have a mobile app too, so i decide use cordova to generate apk.
I follow the following tutorial (https://medium.com/#nacojohn/convert-your-angular-project-to-mobile-app-using-cordova-f0384a7711a6) to generate my apk.
All seems to works fine, apk was generated and install in BlueStack, until i have to make login in my app.
Origin is not allowed by access-control-allow-origin
I know that i need to have a whitelist policy for navigating the application webview
config.xml
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<widget id="com.example.hello" version="1.0.0" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/ns/widgets" xmlns:cdv="http://cordova.apache.org/ns/1.0">

My angular web app have a dev-server proxy to fix the CORS problem
proxy.conf.json
{
"/alfresco": {
"target": "server-url",
"secure": false,
"changeOrigin": true
},
"/activiti-app": {
"target": "another-server-url",
"secure": false,
"changeOrigin": true
}
}
I dont know what i need to do more. Have i made something wrong? need to do something more?
Thanks
I think you should enable CORS in the Alfresco server, you can achieve that either by:
Including this dependency in you Alfresco extension.
Or by enabling CORS directly in the Tomcat server, full details can be found in the Tomcat documentation.
you have to enable CORS for details see Getting Started with Alfresco Application Development Framework
My problem was lack of configuration in app.config.json.
Instead of
"ecmHost": "http://{hostname}{:port}",
"bpmHost": "http://{hostname}{:port}"
I just need to set ecmHost and bpmHost to my servers and all works fine.
Thanks for helping guys
In my app i want to add google plus login. I am following this
github project. After that I add <gap:plugin> tag in config.xml but after this when i try to build app for android platform by using cordova build command it gives me an error. Error snapshot given below.
I have two questions related to this question.
Question1: When we create app using cordova by cordova create hello com.example.hello HelloWorld then many config.xml files created.
First in= Hello--> config.xml
Second in= hello-->platforms-->android-->res-->xml-->config.xml
So in which config.xml I need to add <gap:plugin> tag?
I am adding tag like this.
<gap:plugin name="cordova-plugin-googleplus" source="npm">
<param name="REVERSED_CLIENT_ID" value="myreversedclientid" />
</gap:plugin>
Question2: Why is this error occurred when i try to build app using cordova build command? (This error only occurred when i include gap:plugin tag in config.xml) (position of xml-->Hello--> config.xml) (for error look at error snapshot).
Here is my config.xml file.
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<widget id="com.example.hello" version="0.0.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/ns/widgets" xmlns:cdv="http://cordova.apache.org/ns/1.0">

You shouldn't need to add the plugin manually, you can just do
$ cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-googleplus --variable REVERSED_CLIENT_ID=myreversedclientid
This should add the plugin. To check your installed plugins, do
cordova plugin list
<gap:plugin name="nl.x-services.plugins.googleplus" version="1.0.7" />
include only this line into your config.xml for adding google+ plugin.
You will find all plugin information for Phonegap Plugins here.
google+ is third party plugin for phonegap, so I will recommend you to read API for plugin first. You will find details at given link for plugins.
And you need to add plugins into your root config.xml which you posted. No need to add it to platform config.xml
Check if you also installed the "Google Repository".sample load
I am creating a new Cordova project. And after i have created the project, When i try to add platform using the command
cordova platform add android
i get the result
Adding android project...
Creating Cordova project for the Android platform:
Path: platforms\android
Package: com.gofindy.android
Name: GofindyApp
Activity: MainActivity
Android target: android-22
Copying template files...
Android project created with cordova-android#4.0.0
Installing "cordova-plugin-whitelist" for android
Even though i have deleted android api22 its still creating android target:android-22
How can I change that android target to android-19 when adding android platform
i have tried this (dding two lines specifying sdk version) :
Config.xml :
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<widget id="com.gofindy.android" version="0.0.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/ns/widgets" xmlns:cdv="http://cordova.apache.org/ns/1.0">
