ios-safariview-example's Introduction

ios-safariview-example

This repository contains an example of SFSafariViewController for iOS 9 and up in Objective-C. This repository is mainly created because there is no proper documentation on how to pass data between Safari and your native apps in Objective-C.

By using this example, you will learn how to:

Open your web content via SFSafariViewController directly
Implement a callback when "Done" button is pressed via safariViewControllerDidFinish (normal way)
Invoke a callback via custom URL scheme (e.g.: redirection) & NSNotificationCenter
Allow backwards compatibility with iOS 8 and below (of course, without this functionality)

As a reference, this repository is inspired from mackuba/SafariAutoLoginTest. In addition to seamless auto-login, one of the other motivation in using this technique is to support certificate sharing between native apps which are not signed under same publishers.

Allow custom URL scheme invocations

You need to configure the value of LSApplicationQueriesSchemes and URL types in your Info.plist. In this example, it's already provided so you don't need to change anything.

Allow backwards compatibility

In order to use lower deployment target (e.g.: iOS 8.1) safely, you need to change the binary which is linked from Required to Optional.
