Rewrote the whole repository into typescript. This will provide way better and up to date documentation. This should also add some safety for people contributing 😄 .
Flow types were not working until now which is why this PR doesn't have them but feel free to PR.
This also fixes#384#435#206#171#168.
* Deleted onShouldStartLoadWithRequest platform reference
according to b1b662628e it's supported on android and Ios so no platfor reference is needed
* Deleted onShouldStartLoadWithRequest platform reference
Now with added note
fixes#29fixes#272fixes#221fixes#105fixes#66
BREAKING CHANGE: Communication from webview to react-native has been completely rewritten. React-native-webview will not use or override window.postMessage anymore. Reasons behind these changes can be found throughout so many issues that it made sense to go that way.
Instead of using window.postMessage(data, *), please now use window.ReactNativeWebView.postMessage(data).
Side note: if you wish to keep compatibility with the old version when you upgrade, you can use the injectedJavascript prop to do that:
const injectedJavascript = `(function() {
window.postMessage = function(data) {
window.ReactNativeWebView.postMessage(data);
};
})()`;
Huge thanks to @jordansexton and @KoenLav!
Added a new cacheEnabled prop to toggle Android & iOS webview caching behavior.
BREAKING CHANGE: This change makes caching enabled by default when previously there was no caching behavior which may cause unexpected behaviour changes in your existing implementations.
In the current code using `startInLoadingState` and `injectedJavaScript` will result in an infinite loading state if `injectedJavaScript` fails to evaluate for some reason. This adds a red box error explaining there was a failure to evaluate javascript. In my case this was do to the JS string not returning a valid type so I've added a that as a potential solution in the error message and added some documentation to the API Reference with some additional warnings.
To reproduce the existing behavior setup a webview with `startInLoadingState` and `injectedJavaScript` that returns an invalid type (in my case it returned a function). You should see an infinite loading state as `onLoadEnd` is never called.
Try the same with this branch and you'll get a nice red box error suggesting one potential solution to the problem.
