react-native-webview-with-web
Combination of WebView (for ios and android app) and window.open (for browsers) with the limited functionality of detecting a certain url to return back to the main application.
Installation
yarn add react-native-webview-with-webUsage
import ReactNativeWebviewWithWeb from 'react-native-webview-with-web';
// ...
// Replace the URL with your code
const [url, setUrl] = React.useState(
'https://low-economic-pyramid.glitch.me/start-route'
);
// ...
return <ReactNativeWebviewWithWeb
url={url}
setUrl={setUrl}
closeRouteIncludes={'react-native-webview-with-web-close'}
waitMessage={waitMessage}
base64SpinnerImage={anotherBase64SpinnerImage}
/>;IMPORTANT
In order to signal to your code that the flow in the WebView is finished, the following approaches are taken:
Native (iOS and Android)
If the current navigated URL contains the string passed as the closeRouteIncludes prop, the WebView will be closed and the setUrl function will be called with the value of ''.
Web
The final navigated page should pass a message to he opener with the URL of the page. The opener will then understand the flow in the new window is finalized.
An example final page is:
<html>
<head>
<script>
function postMessage() {
if (window.opener) {
window.opener.postMessage(window.location.href, "*");
window.close();
};
}
window.onload = postMessage;
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p>Please Close This Window</p>
</body>
</html>In this example, as soon as the browser comes to this page, this page sends the window.opener a message with the current URL and then closes itself.
