Issue #480
Description of changes:
This change allows to call configure method of each plugin with a nil value. ie even if the corresponding configuration is not present in the configuration file, plugin's configure will be called.
Issue we are solving:
Suppose that I added two plugins to my project
AWSAPIPlugin
andAWSDataStorePlugin
, but forgot to add any configuration for API in myamplifyconfiguration.json
. Since there is no configuration the current logic does not invoke theconfigure(:)
function ofAWSAPIPlugin
. So we end up using a not-configured plugin and end up in unintended error or crash like this - #480Thought process behind this change:
All category in Amplify conforms to the protocol - CategoryConfigurable, which could infer that the plugins added to every category is configurable. Since each added plugin is configurable it should be given a chance to configure even if the corresponding configuration is missing. This will give the plugin a chance to decide whether it can work in a non-configuration based situation or throw an error.
