[iOS only] Plugin only shows black screen or crashes

[Galiza]

Hi, I'm using Ionic 4 (4.12.0) with the plugin versions:

"@ionic-native/photo-viewer": "^5.21.5",
"com-sarriaroman-photoviewer": "^1.2.4",

And the code is:

 public presentImage(imgSrc): void {
    this.photoViewer.show(imgSrc, '', {
      share: false,
      closeButton: true,
      copyToReference: true
    });
  }

The variable imgSrc is a base64. If I remove the options, the photoViewer opens with a black screen, but with the options it's crashing the app. But as the title states, it only happens on iOS.

Same issue at iOS only. App crashes at open the image

@facuim As a workaround for it, I created a modal and simulated the style for the PhotoViewer. Since this will probably not be a priority for them.

I'm getting the same issue. I have to follow the same workaround as @Galiza

I used the InAppBrowser plugin and then had to pass a base64 image to it. I'm still investigating work arounds that will give better functionality but that's what I've come up with so far.

this.iab.create(data, '_blank', 'enableViewportScale=yes,location=no');

data is base64, that's the only way that I was able to get the iab to open an image on iOS

I tested this with ionic 4, and its not working, so for workaround created a modal ctrl and just add in image with the url into it

i downgraded the plugin version to 1.1.11 and it worked

ionic cordova plugin rm com-sarriaroman-photoviewer
ionic cordova plugin add com-sarriaroman-photoviewer@1.1.11
