Shazron Abdullah commented on CB-11524:
---------------------------------------
The preference "WebKitAllowUniversalAccessFromFileURLsPreferenceKey" needs to
be set to true for localStorage to work on iOS (by default this setting in
WKSecurityOrigin is false):
https://github.com/WebKit/webkit/blob/74c39d225ee2f6465806db45dedb8f351b56c7bd/Source/WebKit/mac/WebView/WebPreferences.mm#L441
(although it is set true here, for macOS). I don't think we can override this
by setting a NSUserDefaults preference (although I haven't tried).
Similarly to the problem with loading local files in iOS 8 which was remedied
in iOS 9 with "loadFileURL:allowingReadAccessToURL:"
https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/WebKit/Reference/WKWebView_Ref/#//apple_ref/occ/instm/WKWebView/loadFileURL:allowingReadAccessToURL:
... Apple will need to add a configuration setting for this. So far in the
WebKit code I don't see anything for this yet.
