This application shows how to support awsconfiguration.json file for NativeScript projects when building for iOS.

According to docs, awsconfiguration.json must be placed at the root of Xcode project. In NativeScript projects there's no easy way to do this, as NativeScript CLI creates and modifies the Xcode project.

Place the awsconfiguration.json file in your <path to App_Resources>/iOS directory. This way, whenever a change in it is applied, CLI will detect a rebuild of the app is required. However, as the file is in App_Resources, NativeScript CLI will place it under Resources directory in the Xcode project. Introduce a new after-prepare hook in the project, which will move the file from the Resources dir to the root of the project. After that, by using xcode package, the hook will include the awsconfiguration.json file in the Xcode project, so it will be used during build of the application.
