# Reference

## Props

### `source`

Loads static HTML or a URI (with optional headers) in the WebView. Note that static HTML will require setting [`originWhitelist`](Reference.md#originwhitelist) to `["*"]`.

The object passed to `source` can have either of the following shapes:

**Load uri**

- `uri` (string) - The URI to load in the `WebView`. Can be a local or remote file.
- `method` (string) - The HTTP Method to use. Defaults to GET if not specified. On Android, the only supported methods are GET and POST.
- `headers` (object) - Additional HTTP headers to send with the request. On Android, this can only be used with GET requests.
- `body` (string) - The HTTP body to send with the request. This must be a valid UTF-8 string, and will be sent exactly as specified, with no additional encoding (e.g. URL-escaping or base64) applied. On Android, this can only be used with POST requests.

**Static HTML**

_Note that using static HTML requires the WebView property [originWhiteList](Reference.md#originWhiteList) to `['*']`. For some content, such as video embeds (e.g. Twitter or Facebook posts with video), the baseUrl needs to be set for the video playback to work_

- `html` (string) - A static HTML page to display in the WebView.
- `baseUrl` (string) - The base URL to be used for any relative links in the HTML. This is also used for the origin header with CORS requests made from the WebView. See [Android WebView Docs](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/WebView#loadDataWithBaseURL)

| Type   | Required |
| ------ | -------- |
| object | No       |

---

### `automaticallyAdjustContentInsets`

Controls whether to adjust the content inset for web views that are placed behind a navigation bar, tab bar, or toolbar. The default value is `true`.

| Type | Required | Platform |
| ---- | -------- | -------- |
| bool | No       | iOS      |

---

### `injectedJavaScript`

Set this to provide JavaScript that will be injected into the web page when the view loads. Make sure the string evaluates to a valid type (`true` works) and doesn't otherwise throw an exception.

| Type   | Required |
| ------ | -------- |
| string | No       |

To learn more, read the [Communicating between JS and Native](Guide.md#communicating-between-js-and-native) guide.

Example:

Post message a JSON object of `window.location` to be handled by [`onMessage`](Reference.md#onmessage)

```jsx
const INJECTED_JAVASCRIPT = `(function() {
    window.ReactNativeWebView.postMessage(JSON.stringify(window.location));
})();`;

<WebView
  source={{ uri: 'https://facebook.github.io/react-native' }}
  injectedJavaScript={INJECTED_JAVASCRIPT}
  onMessage={this.onMessage}
/>;
```

---

### `mediaPlaybackRequiresUserAction`

Boolean that determines whether HTML5 audio and video requires the user to tap them before they start playing. The default value is `true`. (Android API minimum version 17).

NOTE: the default `true` value might cause some videos to hang loading on iOS. Setting it to `false` could fix this issue.
