Flutter InAppBrowser Plugin
A Flutter plugin that allows you to add an inline Webview or open an in-app browser window.
Requirements
- Dart sdk: ">=2.0.0-dev.68.0 <3.0.0"
- Flutter: ">=1.9.1+hotfix.5 <2.0.0"
- Android:
minSdkVersion 17
- iOS:
--ios-language swift
Note for Android
During the build, if Android fails with Error: uses-sdk:minSdkVersion 16 cannot be smaller than version 17 declared in library
, it means that you need to update the minSdkVersion
of your build.gradle
file to at least 17
.
Because of Flutter AndroidX compatibility, the latest version that doesn't use AndroidX
is 0.6.0
.
IMPORTANT Note for iOS
If you are starting a new fresh app, you need to create the Flutter App with flutter create -i swift
(see flutter/flutter#13422 (comment)), otherwise, you will get this message:
=== BUILD TARGET flutter_inappbrowser OF PROJECT Pods WITH CONFIGURATION Debug ===
The “Swift Language Version” (SWIFT_VERSION) build setting must be set to a supported value for targets which use Swift. Supported values are: 3.0, 4.0, 4.2, 5.0. This setting can be set in the build settings editor.
If you still have this problem, try to edit iOS Podfile
like this (see #15):
target 'Runner' do
use_frameworks! # required by simple_permission
...
end
post_install do |installer|
installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
target.build_configurations.each do |config|
config.build_settings['SWIFT_VERSION'] = '5.0' # required by simple_permission
config.build_settings['ENABLE_BITCODE'] = 'NO'
end
end
end
Instead, if you have already a non-swift project, you can check this issue to solve the problem: Friction adding swift plugin to objective-c project.
Getting Started
For help getting started with Flutter, view our online
documentation.
For help on editing plugin code, view the documentation.
Installation
First, add flutter_inappbrowser
as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file.
Usage
Classes:
- InAppWebView: Flutter Widget for adding an inline native WebView integrated into the flutter widget tree. To use
InAppWebView
class on iOS you need to opt-in for the embedded views preview by adding a boolean property to the app'sInfo.plist
file, with the keyio.flutter.embedded_views_preview
and the valueYES
. - InAppBrowser: In-App Browser using native WebView.
- ChromeSafariBrowser: In-App Browser using Chrome Custom Tabs on Android / SFSafariViewController on iOS.
- InAppLocalhostServer: This class allows you to create a simple server on
http://localhost:[port]/
. The defaultport
value is8080
. - CookieManager: This class implements a singleton object (shared instance) which manages the cookies used by WebView instances. NOTE for iOS: available from iOS 11.0+.
- HttpAuthCredentialDatabase: This class implements a singleton object (shared instance) which manages the shared HTTP auth credentials cache.
API Reference
See the online API Reference to get the full documentation.
Load a file inside assets
folder
To be able to load your local files (assets, js, css, etc.), you need to add them in the assets
section of the pubspec.yaml
file, otherwise they cannot be found!
Example of a pubspec.yaml
file:
...
# The following section is specific to Flutter.
flutter:
# The following line ensures that the Material Icons font is
# included with your application, so that you can use the icons in
# the material Icons class.
uses-material-design: true
assets:
- assets/index.html
- assets/css/
- assets/images/
...
InAppWebView
class
Flutter Widget for adding an inline native WebView integrated into the flutter widget tree.
The plugin relies on Flutter's mechanism (in developers preview) for embedding Android and iOS native views: AndroidView and UiKitView.
Known issues are tagged with the platform-views label in the Flutter official repo.
Keyboard support within webviews is also experimental.
To use InAppWebView
class on iOS you need to opt-in for the embedded views preview by adding a boolean property to the app's Info.plist
file, with the key io.flutter.embedded_views_preview
and the value YES
.
Use InAppWebViewController
to control the WebView instance.
Example:
import 'dart:async';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_inappbrowser/flutter_inappbrowser.dart';
Future main() async {
runApp(new MyApp());
}
class MyApp extends StatefulWidget {
@override
_MyAppState createState() => new _MyAppState();
}
class _MyAppState extends State<MyApp> {
InAppWebViewController webView;
String url = "";
double progress = 0;
@override
void initState() {
super.initState();
}
@override
void dispose() {
super.dispose();
}
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
home: Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
title: const Text('InAppWebView Example'),
),
body: Container(
child: Column(children: <Widget>[
Container(
padding: EdgeInsets.all(20.0),
child: Text(
"CURRENT URL\n${(url.length > 50) ? url.substring(0, 50) + "..." : url}"),
),
Container(
padding: EdgeInsets.all(10.0),
child: progress < 1.0
? LinearProgressIndicator(value: progress)
: Container()),
Expanded(
child: Container(
margin: const EdgeInsets.all(10.0),
decoration:
BoxDecoration(border: Border.all(color: Colors.blueAccent)),
child: InAppWebView(
initialUrl: "https://flutter.dev/",
initialHeaders: {},
initialOptions: InAppWebViewWidgetOptions(
inAppWebViewOptions: InAppWebViewOptions(
debuggingEnabled: true,
)
),
onWebViewCreated: (InAppWebViewController controller) {
webView = controller;
},
onLoadStart: (InAppWebViewController controller, String url) {
setState(() {
this.url = url;
});
},
onLoadStop: (InAppWebViewController controller, String url) async {
setState(() {
this.url = url;
});
},
onProgressChanged: (InAppWebViewController controller, int progress) {
setState(() {
this.progress = progress / 100;
});
},
),
),
),
ButtonBar(
alignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
children: <Widget>[
RaisedButton(
child: Icon(Icons.arrow_back),
onPressed: () {
if (webView != null) {
webView.goBack();
}
},
),
RaisedButton(
child: Icon(Icons.arrow_forward),
onPressed: () {
if (webView != null) {
webView.goForward();
}
},
),
RaisedButton(
child: Icon(Icons.refresh),
onPressed: () {
if (webView != null) {
webView.reload();
}

About the JavaScript handler
The Android implementation uses addJavascriptInterface.
The iOS implementation uses addScriptMessageHandler
The JavaScript function that can be used to call the handler is window.flutter_inappbrowser.callHandler(handlerName <String>, ...args)
, where args
are rest parameters.
The args
will be stringified automatically using JSON.stringify(args)
method and then they will be decoded on the Dart side.
In order to call window.flutter_inappbrowser.callHandler(handlerName <String>, ...args)
properly, you need to wait and listen the JavaScript event flutterInAppBrowserPlatformReady
.
This event will be dispatched as soon as the platform (Android or iOS) is ready to handle the callHandler
method.
window.addEventListener("flutterInAppBrowserPlatformReady", function(event) {
console.log("ready");
});
window.flutter_inappbrowser.callHandler
returns a JavaScript Promise
that can be used to get the json result returned by [JavaScriptHandlerCallback].
In this case, simply return data that you want to send and it will be automatically json encoded using [jsonEncode] from the dart:convert
library.
So, on the JavaScript side, to get data coming from the Dart side, you will use:
<script>
window.addEventListener("flutterInAppBrowserPlatformReady", function(event) {
window.flutter_inappbrowser.callHandler('handlerFoo').then(function(result) {
console.log(result);
});
window.flutter_inappbrowser.callHandler('handlerFooWithArgs', 1, true, ['bar', 5], {foo: 'baz'}).then(function(result) {
console.log(result);
});
});
</script>
Instead, on the onLoadStop
WebView event, you can use callHandler
directly:
// Inject JavaScript that will receive data back from Flutter
inAppWebViewController.evaluateJavascript(source: """
window.flutter_inappbrowser.callHandler('test', 'Text from Javascript').then(function(result) {
console.log(result);
});
""");

InAppBrowser
class
In-App Browser using native WebView.
inAppBrowser.webViewController
can be used to access the InAppWebView
API.
Create a Class that extends the InAppBrowser
Class in order to override the callbacks to manage the browser events.
Example:
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_inappbrowser/flutter_inappbrowser.dart';
class MyInAppBrowser extends InAppBrowser {
@override
Future onBrowserCreated() async {
print("\n\nBrowser Created!\n\n");

@override
Future onLoadStop(String url) async {
print("\n\nStopped $url\n\n");
}
@override
void onLoadError(String url, int code, String message) {
print("Can't load $url.. Error: $message");
}
@override
void onProgressChanged(int progress) {
print("Progress: $progress");
}
@override
void onExit() {
print("\n\nBrowser closed!\n\n");
}
@override
void shouldOverrideUrlLoading(String url) {
print("\n\n override $url\n\n");
this.webViewController.loadUrl(url: url);
}
@override
void onLoadResource(LoadedResource response) {
print("Started at: " +
response.startTime.toString() +
"ms ---> duration: " +
response.duration.toString() +
"ms " +
response.url);
}
@override
void onConsoleMessage(ConsoleMessage consoleMessage) {
print("""
console output:
message: ${consoleMessage.message}
messageLevel: ${consoleMessage.messageLevel.toValue()}
""");
}
}
void main() => runApp(new MyApp());
class MyApp extends StatefulWidget {
final MyInAppBrowser browser = new MyInAppBrowser();

InAppBrowser
Events
They are the same of the InAppWebView
class, except for InAppWebView.onWebViewCreated
event.
Specific events of the InAppBrowser
class are:
onBrowserCreated
: Event fired when theInAppBrowser
is created.onExit
: Event fired when theInAppBrowser
window is closed.
ChromeSafariBrowser
class
Chrome Custom Tabs on Android / SFSafariViewController on iOS.
You can initialize the ChromeSafariBrowser
instance with an InAppBrowser
fallback instance.
Create a Class that extends the ChromeSafariBrowser
Class in order to override the callbacks to manage the browser events. Example:
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_inappbrowser/flutter_inappbrowser.dart';
class MyInAppBrowser extends InAppBrowser {
@override
Future onLoadStart(String url) async {
print("\n\nStarted $url\n\n");
}
@override
Future onLoadStop(String url) async {
print("\n\nStopped $url\n\n");
}
@override
void onLoadError(String url, int code, String message) {
print("\n\nCan't load $url.. Error: $message\n\n");
}
@override
void onExit() {
print("\n\nBrowser closed!\n\n");
}
}
class MyChromeSafariBrowser extends ChromeSafariBrowser {
MyChromeSafariBrowser(browserFallback) : super(bFallback: browserFallback);
@override
void onOpened() {
print("ChromeSafari browser opened");
}
@override
void onLoaded() {
print("ChromeSafari browser loaded");
}
@override
void onClosed() {
print("ChromeSafari browser closed");
}
}
void main() => runApp(new MyApp());
class MyApp extends StatefulWidget {
final ChromeSafariBrowser browser = new MyChromeSafariBrowser(new MyInAppBrowser());
@override
_MyAppState createState() => new _MyAppState();
}
class _MyAppState extends State<MyApp> {
@override
void initState() {
super.initState();
}
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
home: Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
title: const Text('ChromeSafariBrowser Example'),
),
body: Center(
child: RaisedButton(
onPressed: () async {
await widget.browser.open(
url: "https://flutter.dev/",
options: ChromeSafariBrowserClassOptions(
androidChromeCustomTabsOptions: AndroidChromeCustomTabsOptions(addShareButton: false),
iosSafariOptions: IosSafariOptions(barCollapsingEnabled: true)));
},
child: Text("Open Chrome Safari Browser")),
),
),
);
}
}

HttpAuthCredentialDatabase
class
This class implements a singleton object (shared instance) which manages the shared HTTP auth credentials cache.
On iOS, this class uses the URLCredentialStorage class.
On Android, this class has a custom implementation using android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase
because WebViewDatabase doesn't offer the same functionalities as iOS URLCredentialStorage
.
