Ionic Pro Live Deploy Plugin Not Working

Appflow
1

Hi everyone

I am trying out the new Ionic Pro with Live deploy. The instructions on the documentation is pretty straight forward, which basically is:

  1. git push ionic to the right channel
  2. Install the new cordova-plugin-ionic with the right app id and channel

However, after installing the plugin, I cannot run the application both on device and emulator both from CLI and XCode.

The following build commands failed:
                Ld build/emulator/Tyde\ Health.app/Tyde\ Health normal x86_64
        (1 failure)

Has anyone seen the error above?

After digging around, I found the following error

error: failed to import bridging header

caused by

error: 'Cordova/CDV.h' file not found

As I understand it, Ionic is trying to use Swift in this new plugin and use the bridging header to import Cordova lib. However, the bridging file cannot load the CDV.h file.

There’s Voodoo magic at play.
To get the constellations to align I had remove the following plugins:

zip,
ionic,
add-swift-support

Remove the ios platform
add the plugins back.
Add ios platform back

Some quirky combination of the above seemed to get XCdoe to work.
