iOS: onRegister only called with requestPermissions: true

See original GitHub issue

Hey,

I would like to run PushNotification.configure on app start without immediately requesting permissions from the user, therefore I set requestPermissions to false. However, in this case onRegister never gets called. (Neither do I get an error via PushNotificationIOS.addEventListener). When I set requestPermissions to true, onRegister is called with the token correctly.

So… 1) is this by design? and 2) is there a way to get the token without requesting permissions?

(running on an iPhone XR – real device – with iOS 12.2; the push entitlement is set correctly in Xcode)

I can’t seem to get onRegister to trigger at all.
