Feature Request: File Read/Write
acketon opened this issue · comments
It would be nice to be able to read/write files. The HTML5 File API works but as far as I know requires user interaction/selection of files. Is there a way to disable that security requirement or implement an Objective-C to JS function?

The problem is sandbox restricts random file access. Under sandbox environment, even normal Objective-C app can’t read/write arbitrary files. I’m able to provide such API for non-sandbox environment, but I don’t have good reasons to do that. I think an open dialog is a good protection to end users.
