I´m using visual studio for developing cordova applications.
If I upload my App to the Store with Xcode8, I get the following error mail.
Missing Info.plist key - This app attempts to access privacy-sensitive data without a usage description. The app's Info.plist must contain an NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription key with a string value explaining to the user how the app uses this data.
Based on an other stackoverflow-question I´ve added the plugin https://github.com/leecrossley/cordova-plugin-transport-security
and modified the plugin.xml:
<platform name="ios"> <config-file target="*-Info.plist" parent="NSAppTransportSecurity"> <dict> <key>NSAllowsArbitraryLoads</key> <true/> <key>NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription</key> <string>This app requires access to the photo library.</string> <key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key> <string>This app does not require access to the microphone.</string> <key>NSCameraUsageDescription</key> <string>This app requires access to the camera.</string> </dict> </config-file> </platform>
In my config.xml:
<plugin name="cordova-plugin-transport-security" version="0.1.2" src="C:\\Users\\xxx\\cordova-plugin-transport-security-master\\cordova-plugin-transport-security-master" />
After that i build the app for iOS and uploaded it via xcode.
But the error is still there.
With that change you are writing the NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription
and the other UsageDescriptions inside NSAppTransportSecurity
, it should be on the root.
If you use latest version of cordova-plugin-media-capture, it already have the needed values
<preference name="CAMERA_USAGE_DESCRIPTION" default=" " />
<config-file target="*-Info.plist" parent="NSCameraUsageDescription">
<string>$CAMERA_USAGE_DESCRIPTION</string>
</config-file>
<preference name="MICROPHONE_USAGE_DESCRIPTION" default=" " />
<config-file target="*-Info.plist" parent="NSMicrophoneUsageDescription">
<string>$MICROPHONE_USAGE_DESCRIPTION</string>
</config-file>
<preference name="PHOTOLIBRARY_USAGE_DESCRIPTION" default=" " />
<config-file target="*-Info.plist" parent="NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription">
<string>$PHOTOLIBRARY_USAGE_DESCRIPTION</string>
</config-file>
The value is $CAMERA_USAGE_DESCRIPTION
because it's picked from a variable whey you install the plugin from the CLI. As you use Visual Studio, I think you can set the value using a variable tag in the config.xml. The variable tags should be inside the plugin that will use them:
<plugin name="cordova-plugin-media-capture" spec="~1.4.1">
<variable name="CAMERA_USAGE_DESCRIPTION" value="your camera usage message" />
<variable name="MICROPHONE_USAGE_DESCRIPTION" value="your microphone usage message" />
<variable name="PHOTOLIBRARY_USAGE_DESCRIPTION" value="your photolibrary usage message" />
</plugin>
If that doesn't work, you can continue using your modified plugin, but add each UsageDescription as a separate config-file
tag as in the previous code.
