JsBridge

---

inspired and modified from this and wechat jsBridge file, with some bugs fix and feature enhancement.

This project make a bridge between Java and JavaScript.

It provides safe and convenient way to call Java code from js and call js code from java.

How JsBridge Work

Demo

Usage

JitPack.io

I strongly recommend https://jitpack.io

repositories {
    // ...
    maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
}

dependencies {
    compile 'com.github.lzyzsd:jsbridge:1.0.4'
}

Use it in Java

add com.github.lzyzsd.jsbridge.BridgeWebView to your layout, it is inherited from WebView.

Register a Java handler function so that js can call

    webView.registerHandler("submitFromWeb", new BridgeHandler() {
        @Override
        public void handler(String data, CallBackFunction function) {
            Log.i(TAG, "handler = submitFromWeb, data from web = " + data);
            function.onCallBack("submitFromWeb exe, response data from Java");
        }
    });

js can call this Java handler method "submitFromWeb" through:

    WebViewJavascriptBridge.callHandler(
        'submitFromWeb'
        , {'param': str1}
        , function(responseData) {
            document.getElementById("show").innerHTML = "send get responseData from java, data = " + responseData
        }
    );

You can set a default handler in Java, so that js can send message to Java without assigned handlerName

    webView.setDefaultHandler(new DefaultHandler());

    window.WebViewJavascriptBridge.doSend(
        data
        , function(responseData) {
            document.getElementById("show").innerHTML = "repsonseData from java, data = " + responseData
        }
    );

Register a JavaScript handler function so that Java can call

    WebViewJavascriptBridge.registerHandler("functionInJs", function(data, responseCallback) {
        document.getElementById("show").innerHTML = ("data from Java: = " + data);
        var responseData = "Javascript Says Right back aka!";
        responseCallback(responseData);
    });

Java can call this js handler function "functionInJs" through:

    webView.callHandler("functionInJs", new Gson().toJson(user), new CallBackFunction() {
        @Override
        public void onCallBack(String data) {

        }
    });

You can also define a default handler use init method, so that Java can send message to js without assigned handlerName

for example:

    window.WebViewJavascriptBridge.init(function(message, responseCallback) {
        console.log('JS got a message', message);
        var data = {
            'Javascript Responds': 'Wee!'
        };
        console.log('JS responding with', data);
        responseCallback(data);
    });

    webView.send("hello");

will print 'JS got a message hello' and 'JS responding with' in webview console.

Switch to CustomWebview

• activity_main.xml

    <com.github.lzyzsd.jsbridge.example.CustomWebView
        android:id="@+id/webView"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent" >
     </com.github.lzyzsd.jsbridge.example.CustomWebView>

• MainActivity.java Class BridgeWebview change to CustomWebview;

    CustomWebView webView = (CustomWebView) findViewById(R.id.webView);
    

Notice

This lib will inject a WebViewJavascriptBridge Object to window object. You can listen to WebViewJavascriptBridgeReady event to ensure window.WebViewJavascriptBridge is exist, as the blow code shows:

    if (window.WebViewJavascriptBridge) {
        //do your work here
    } else {
        document.addEventListener(
            'WebViewJavascriptBridgeReady'
            , function() {
                //do your work here
            },
            false
        );
    }

Or put all JsBridge function call into window.WVJBCallbacks array if window.WebViewJavascriptBridge is undefined, this task queue will be flushed when WebViewJavascriptBridgeReady event triggered.

Copy and paste setupWebViewJavascriptBridge into your JS:

function setupWebViewJavascriptBridge(callback) {
	if (window.WebViewJavascriptBridge) {
        return callback(WebViewJavascriptBridge);
    }
	if (window.WVJBCallbacks) {
        return window.WVJBCallbacks.push(callback);
    }
	window.WVJBCallbacks = [callback];
}

Call setupWebViewJavascriptBridge and then use the bridge to register handlers or call Java handlers:

setupWebViewJavascriptBridge(function(bridge) {
	bridge.registerHandler('JS Echo', function(data, responseCallback) {
		console.log("JS Echo called with:", data);
		responseCallback(data);
    });
	bridge.callHandler('ObjC Echo', {'key':'value'}, function(responseData) {
		console.log("JS received response:", responseData);
	});
});

It same with https://github.com/marcuswestin/WebViewJavascriptBridge, that would be easier for you to define same behavior in different platform between Android and iOS. Meanwhile, writing concise code.
