I have the following UIViewRepresentable that loads a webview.
struct SViewerWebView: UIViewRepresentable{
var url: String
var token: String
@Binding var isLoading: Bool
func makeCoordinator() -> Coordinator {
Coordinator(self)
}
func makeUIView(context: Context) -> WKWebView {
let webConfiguration = WKWebViewConfiguration()
let webView = WKWebView(frame:.zero,configuration:webConfiguration)
webView.allowsBackForwardNavigationGestures = true
webView.isInspectable = true
webView.navigationDelegate = context.coordinator
return webView
}
func updateUIView(_ uiView: WKWebView, context: Context) {
guard let urlforRequest = URL(string: url) else {
print("❌ Invalid URL:", url)
return
}
var request = URLRequest(url: urlforRequest)
request.addValue("Bearer \(token)", forHTTPHeaderField: "Authorization")
print("🔄 Loading URL:", url)
print("🛠 Headers:", request.allHTTPHeaderFields ?? [:])
uiView.load(request)
}
//coordinator
class Coordinator: NSObject, WKNavigationDelegate {
var parent: SViewerWebView
init(_ parent: SViewerWebView) {
self.parent = parent
}
func webView(_ webView: WKWebView, didFinish navigation: WKNavigation!) {
DispatchQueue.main.async {
self.parent.isLoading = false // Hide loading when page loads
}
}
func webView(_ webView: WKWebView, didFail navigation: WKNavigation!, withError error: Error) {
DispatchQueue.main.async {
self.parent.isLoading = false // Hide loading on error
}
}
}
}
This is the state before the content loads. At this point a ProgressView() is displayed:
The problem comes in the step between screenshot 1 and 3:
as you can see in below pictures, before navigating to the webview content, there is a default loading text that still showing up. Apparently, it seems to be the default behavior from the wkwebview. How can I hide that text status?
my view component:
var body: some View {
ZStack{
SViewerWebView(url: webUrl,token: TokenManager.getToken()!,isLoading: $isLoading)
if isLoading{
VStack {
ProgressView()
.progressViewStyle(CircularProgressViewStyle())
.scaleEffect(1.5)
}
.frame(maxWidth: .infinity, maxHeight: .infinity)
.background(Color.white)
}
}
.ignoresSafeArea()
}
