Cordova Android ICordovaCookieManager use from plugin

Question

I'm trying, from a Cordova plugin, to set a cookie to the webview. I've checked the cordova-android source and it appears that there is a CookieManager interface. When I'm trying to use it, the cookie isn't set when I inspect the webview.

 @Override
 public void initialize(CordovaInterface cordova, CordovaWebView webView) {
    super.initialize(cordova, webView);  

    ICordovaCookieManager cookieManager = webView.getCookieManager();
    cookieManager.setCookiesEnabled(true);
    cookieManager.setCookie("https://com.myapp", "test=test");
 }

Note that I'm using the https://com.myapp as host as it is set in the hostname preference. I've also tried http://localhost and https://localhost..

How do I use ICordovaCookieManager to set a cookie ?

I will answer my own question since I've found the solution The code actually works! The issue is between scheme / hostname and inspecting.

The scheme actually does not set webView location, it always falls back onto https://, even if you set it to app://.

Then when I inspect the webview, it is loaded by default with file:// because I had AndroidInsecureFileModeEnabled set to true, so I do need to reload the webview and use the proper url https://com.myapp, and finally I see my cookies, or remove AndroidInsecureFileModeEnabled.
