Fixing npm On Mac OS X for Homebrew Users

If you just want to fix the issue quickly, scroll down to the "solution" section below.

Explanation of the issue

If you're a Mac Homebrew user and you installed node via Homebrew, there is a major philosophical issue with the way Homebrew and NPM work together. If you install node with Homebrew and then try to do npm update npm -g, you will see an error like this:

$ npm update npm -g

This is a fix for the java error thrown when trying to run v0.8.1 of the cordova localNotification plugin

To fix the build error:

..../platforms/android/cordova/plugin/localnotification/LocalNotification.java:495: error: cannot find symbol webView.evaluateJavascript(js, null);

replace the block starting at line 492 in .../plugins/de.appplant.cordova.plugin.local-notification/src/android/LocalNotification.java with this

webView.getView().post(new Runnable(){
  public void run(){
 if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT) {

With the parse.com cordova plugin installed there is an error in Xcode

If you're not using a library which requires the -ObjC linker flag, you can remove -ObjC from your project: Build Settings > Other Linker Flags > remove -ObjC or if you are using a library which requires that flag, you can add the Facebook SDK.

In addition: There is a problem if you remove the -ObjC linker switch. The libCordova.a library specifies some categories on NSString which will not get loaded if -ObjC is removed. A work around is to remove libCordova.a from the linked frameworks and add this to the Other Linker Flags build setting:

An example of using Firebase and WordPress together. The idea is to use WP's custom post types and metaboxes to make content management easy, and sync with Firebase so that your websites have access to a real-time JSON feed of your custom data.
