Current behavior:

Since your Change with #485 Sign in with Apple Entitlement is automatically added to the Project. For us not using SwA we get the Error: Provisioning profile "..." doesn't support the Sign in with Apple capability.

Expected behavior:

Maybe it is possible (with a script?) to only add this Entitlement if a specific Preference is set? (Or the other way, but like it's now, i think its kinda "breaking change" for everybody not using it.

Darn. OK, I think the best approach is to use a plugin variable to optionally set the Sign In with Apple capability in the Xcode entitlements. I'll see if I have time to push out a patch release later today with this functionality.

I was also experiencing this, for now I just set it back to use the previous version. Good thing to know that somebody already opened an issue for this. 👍

@Davedave2004 If you want to use the other Features from Version 11.0.0, it's currently just one click to remove the Entitlement from xcode again 😊

@dpa99c I can create a PR to help you. What do you think about a logic similar to the one you use in the Diagnostics Plugin for enabling Modules? But here for kinda "Sections"? So we will only have this one for now, but maybe some others in the future? If we do so, do you prefer one Preference for all sections (like Diagnostic), or one preference for each section?

[dpa99c]

@EinfachHans this plugin is already writing to various plists based on plugin variable values so I was just going to remove the <config-file> blocks from plugin.xml and write the values directly into the entitlement plists in JS using applyPluginVarsToPlists()

[dpa99c]

OK I've published a fix for this in [email protected].

This adds the plugin variable IOS_ENABLE_APPLE_SIGNIN (which defaults to false) but if it's set to true at plugin install time it will enable the Sign In with Apple capability in Xcode:

cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-firebasex --variable IOS_ENABLE_APPLE_SIGNIN=true

@dpa99c Thank you for your fast work 🎉
