react-native-safari-view
is a Safari View Controller wrapper for React Native.
Note: Safari View Controller is only available in iOS 9, which is currently in beta.
npm i --save react-native-safari-view
In order to use Safari View, you must first link the library your project. There's excellent documentation on how to do this in the React Native Docs.
Once you've linked the library, you'll want to make it available to your app by requiring it:
var SafariView = require('react-native-safari-view');
Displaying the Safari View is as simple as calling:
SafariView.show({
url: 'https://github.com/naoufal'
});
Using Safari View in your app will usually look like this:
var SafariView = require('react-native-safari-view');
var YourComponent = React.createClass({
_pressHandler() {
SafariView.isAvailable()
.then(SafariView.show({
url: 'https://github.com/naoufal'
}))
.catch(error => {
// Fallback WebView code for iOS 8 and earlier
});
},
render() {
return (
<View>
...
<Button onPress={this._pressHandler}>
Show Safari View
</Button>
</View>
);
}
});
Displays a Safari View with the provided url.
