Updated Capacitor configuration and HTML initialization:
Capacitor Config:
- Changed webDir from 'www' to 'public' to match actual directory structure
- Config now correctly points to App/App/public/ directory
HTML Initialization:
- Removed immediate plugin assignment (was failing because Capacitor not loaded)
- Added Capacitor script tags (capacitor.js, capacitor_plugins.js)
- Added initialization script that waits for Capacitor to be ready
- Plugin is now set after Capacitor loads successfully
Fixes:
- Black screen: Capacitor scripts now load before plugin access
- Plugin errors: window.Capacitor was undefined, now waits for it
- Initialization: Proper async loading of Capacitor runtime
Note: capacitor.js and capacitor_plugins.js will be generated by Capacitor
during build or can be copied from node_modules if needed
Added CFBundleExecutable key required for iOS app installation:
CFBundleExecutable:
- Set to 'App' (matches PRODUCT_NAME from build settings)
- Required by iOS to identify the executable binary
- Without this, app installation fails with 'missing or invalid CFBundleExecutable'
Fixes:
- Installation error: 'Bundle has missing or invalid CFBundleExecutable in its Info.plist'
- App can now be installed on simulator successfully
Result: App installation should now complete successfully
Created missing asset catalog required by Xcode build:
Assets.xcassets:
- Created asset catalog directory structure
- Added Contents.json with standard Xcode format
- Added AppIcon.appiconset with minimal icon configuration
AppIcon.appiconset:
- Minimal icon set configuration for iOS
- Universal platform support
- 1024x1024 size placeholder (actual icons can be added later)
Fixes:
- Build error: 'None of the input catalogs contained a matching app icon set named AppIcon'
- Build error: 'Failed to read file attributes for Assets.xcassets'
- Xcode project expects this asset catalog for app icons
Result: Build should now complete successfully
Created complete iOS test app project structure:
Project Setup:
- Created package.json with Capacitor dependencies
- Installed Capacitor CLI and iOS platform
- Generated Xcode project (App.xcodeproj, App.xcworkspace)
- Configured Podfile with correct paths
Podfile Configuration:
- Fixed paths to use local node_modules for Capacitor
- Added DailyNotificationPlugin from project root
- Configured for iOS 13.0+ deployment target
Fixed Issues:
- Resolved zsh syntax error (CODE_SIGN_IDENTITY='' instead of "")
- Corrected Podfile paths for Capacitor and plugin
- Created public directory for web assets
Result:
- Pod install successful (3 pods installed)
- Workspace ready for command-line builds
- All files in place for simulator builds
Next: Can now run build scripts or xcodebuild commands
Added iOS platform to Vue 3 test app and created standalone iOS test app:
Vue 3 Test App (daily-notification-test):
- Added iOS platform via 'npx cap add ios'
- Created ios/ directory with Xcode project structure
- Added DailyNotificationPlugin to Podfile
- Generated App.xcodeproj and App.xcworkspace
Standalone iOS Test App (ios-test-app):
- Created App structure with Capacitor configuration
- Added DailyNotificationPlugin to Podfile
- Created capacitor.config.json with plugin settings
- Copied test HTML interface (575 lines) from Android test app
- Set up public/ directory for web assets
Plugin Integration:
- Both Podfiles configured with plugin path: '../../../ios'
- Plugin dependencies ready for 'pod install'
- Configuration files created and verified
Documentation:
- Created IOS_TEST_APPS_SETUP_COMPLETE.md with setup details
- Documented next steps for CocoaPods and Xcode building
All command-line setup complete. Ready for:
- pod install (requires CocoaPods)
- Xcode building and testing
