How to set base URLs on IOS when using relative URLs in ReactJS

[henryhs97]

Hi! I'm trying to build a capacitor iOS app based on a ReactJS web app I have. Everything so far is good, except that I cannot do any web requests. My suspicion is that it's because I'm using relative URLs in my web app. For example, fetch('/api/routines'), instead of also using the base URL (i.e. fetch('https://mywebsite.com/api/routines')). The most straightforward fix I can think of is to update all the requests in my app to also include the base URL, but this will be quite some work so I was wondering if there was a way to set the capacitor config so that the base URL can be defined? Any other ideas are very much welcome. Thanks in advance!

You might consider using axios.
