!!! Important !!!
Using WKWebView, you need to register an object to be the handler for a particular message: jsHandler
.
Every message (action like login
, signMessage
, etc.) sent from the child webview is using the jsHandler
object to send the message to the parent window. Eg. window.webkit.messageHandlers.jsHandler.postMessage({ type: "LOGIN_REQUEST" });
It's developer's responsibility to handle the message in the parent window and call the appropriate method on the webview
object.
