Ionic React Yelp Search

This repo is a demo for how to avoid CORS restrictions imposed on hybrid apps by ios. I chose to use the YELP api since it is one of the few public API with CORS restrictions

The app avoids CORS restrictions by using cordova-plugin-advanced-http and linking a fetch implemetation of the plugin to Apollo graphql client.

Setup

• Install the Ionic CLI if you dont it installed. npm install -g @ionic/cli
• npm install
• Get a Yelp API key
• Create a .env file in the root of the project and add the yelp API key as REACT_APP_YELP_API_KEY=youryelpapikey

How to run on an ios simulator

• ionic cap sync
• ionic cap open ios This will open the project in xcode
• Select your target simulator and hit the play button to run
