升级到 WKWebView Ionic 3 后 iOS 应用程序启动后出现白屏

Question

I have upgraded my application to WKWebView by following this blog. If i make a build using ionic cordova build ios it runs normally but if i make a --prod build then my app is getting stuck after splash screen and a white screen shows up. I have read many threads regarding the same and found similar issues.

I have tried the following plugins -

ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-ionic-webview --save
, cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-wkwebview-engine, cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-wkwebview-file-xhr

but still the problem exists.

Here is my config.xml-

<platform name="ios">
    <preference name="WKWebViewOnly" value="true" />
     <preference name="CordovaWebViewEngine" value="CDVWKWebViewEngine" />
        <feature name="CDVWKWebViewEngine">
            <param name="ios-package" value="CDVWKWebViewEngine" />
        </feature>
        <preference name="CordovaWebViewEngine" value="CDVWKWebViewEngine" />
        <allow-navigation href="*" />
        <allow-navigation href="http://localhost:8080/*" />
        <allow-intent href="itms:*" />
        <allow-intent href="itms-apps:*" />

How to make this work? Help is really appreciated as i am stuck with this issue since 2 days.

Thanks!

Answer 1

After a lot of hassle, I found out the issue was different on the prod build. I was getting a cannot find module '.' error due to Typescript version mismatch which was causing the blank white screen. When i degraded the TS version I was able to make a prod build.

Posting for the people if they come across the same issue in the future.

Thanks!
