I'm attempting to rewrite an objective-c app using a UIWebViewsin Swift using a WKWebView.
The application displays a lot of local content.
While I can display the initial webpage in WKWebView with no problem. When I click on a link that points to more local content I get the following error:
Received an unexpected URL from the web process: "..."
The content uses a nonstandard href to identify the local content. Using the UIWebView shouldStartLoadWithRequest api I was able to intercept this clicked linked and rewrite the href in a way that I could load the appropriate local content.
So far I haven't been able to identify anything in WKWebView that would allow me to accomplish the same thing.
I'm consuming this content, not creating it so I don't have the option of changing the format of the href.
I've tried:
decidePolicyFor navigationResponse
decidePolicyFor navigationAction
didFail navigation
didFailProvisionalNavigation navigation
didStartProvisionalNavigation navigation
I tried adding a custom URLSchemeHandler...
nothing allowed me to intercept the link.
Instead in the console I get errors:
Received an unexpected URL from the web process:
Received an invalid message "WebPageProxy.DecidePolicyForNavigationAction" from the web process.
Could not signal service com.apple.WebKit.WebContent: 113: Could not find specified service
It DO get decideActionPolicyFor: <WKNavigationActioncalls if I slightly rewrite the href... and I guess I could come up with a way to automatically rewrite all of these before the content is displayed in the WKWebView, but I guess I'm a little shocked that there's no way for me to catch these errors and handle them more gracefully.
Am I missing something?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
