Troubleshooting

removed jcenter() before run

If plugin had manually removed jcenter(), will not work well. When this, you should check android/build.gradle and add mavenCentral() manually.

capacitor-plugin-to-v4's Issues

Problem with Xcode project modification

This line is missing the terminating semicolon, which completely breaks the project since Xcode can't parse it.

capacitor-plugin-to-v4/src/index.ts

Line 161 in ebfeeb7

return line + '\n\t\t\t\tSUPPORTS_MACCATALYST = NO'

Also, it would be nice to check if that line already exists before adding it again.

Dependency issues

Thanks for this tool! Might I suggest that you not change these:

const changePackageVersion = {
  '"prettier"': '2.3.0',
  '"prettier-plugin-java"': '1.0.2',
  '"typescript"': '4.1.5',

First of all, those are old versions you have there, and AFAIK changing those has little to do with Capacitor 4 vs 3. Second, I think using a "^" version is much preferred to an absolute version, since that allows non-breaking updates.
