How to Open PDF/File in Ionic on Android?
If you recently tried to open a file in Ionic from the application dir using `fileOpener2` plugin you may have encountered an error `File Not Found` which could indicate permission error.
It turns out you can’t open a file from `applicationDirectory` directly, you have to copy it into another directory:
if (this.platform.is('android')) {
const self = this;
const targetFile = self.file.dataDirectory + '/' + yourFileName;
self.file.copyFile(self.file.applicationDirectory + 'www/assets/', yourFileName,
self.file.dataDirectory, yourFileName).
then(function (res) {
self.fileOpener.open(targetFile, 'application/pdf');
});
}
Install the Cordova Plugin here:
https://github.com/pwlin/cordova-plugin-file-opener2
https://ionicframework.com/docs/native/file-opener
import { SecurityContext } from '@angular/core';
import { DomSanitizer } from '@angular/platform-browser';
private sanitizer: DomSanitizer;
downloadCSV() {
let blob = new Blob([yourdata], { type: 'text/csv' });
let urlPath = this.sanitizer.sanitize(SecurityContext.URL,
this.sanitizer.bypassSecurityTrustResourceUrl(window.URL.createObjectURL(blob)));
let tempLink = document.createElement('a');
tempLink.href = urlPath;
tempLink.setAttribute('download', 'download.csv');
tempLink.click();
}
Hello Google Play Developer,
This is a reminder that starting November 1, 2019, updates to apps and games on Google Play will be required to target Android 9 (API level 28) or higher. After this date, the Play Console will prevent you from submitting new APKs with a targetSdkVersion less than 28.
Configuring your app to target a recent API level ensures that users benefit from significant security and performance improvements, while still allowing your app to run on older Android versions (down to the minSdkVersion).
Android 9 (API level 28) introduces a number of changes to the Android system. The following behavior changes apply exclusively to apps that are targeting API level 28 or higher. Apps that set targetSdkVersion to API level 28 or higher must modify their apps to support these behaviors properly, where applicable to the app.
To target the api in your Cordova app set these min and target version in config.xml
<preference name="android-minSdkVersion" value="23" />
<preference name="android-targetSdkVersion" value="28" />
Apple will no longer support web apps that use UIWebView. The apps and libraries need to be migrated to use WkWebView.
The latest Ionic already uses WkWebView, but several Cordova plugins still rely on UIWebView which is a problem.

If you’re using Ionic you need to upgrade to iOS Cordova 5
cordova platform remove ios cordova platform add ios@5.0.0
Also you might need to remove additional plugins that use UIWebView such as inappbrowser.
cordova plugin rm cordova-plugin-inappbrowser
More information about the breaking changes can be found here:

The easy fix to allow your Web App to read remote json files from the server is to create the .htaccess file.
Create an `.htaccess` file and place it in the directory of the json files.
<Files "*.json"> Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*" </Files>
Simply reload your app and it should work! good luck!
