Reference

Props

`source`

Loads static HTML or a URI (with optional headers) in the WebView. Note that static HTML will require setting originWhitelist to ["*"].

The object passed to source can have either of the following shapes:

Load uri

uri (string) - The URI to load in the WebView. Can be a local or remote file, and can be changed with React state or props to navigate to a new page.
method (string) - The HTTP Method to use. Defaults to GET if not specified. On Android, the only supported methods are GET and POST.
headers (object) - Additional HTTP headers to send with the request. On Android, this can only be used with GET requests. See the Guide for more information on setting custom headers.
body (string) - The HTTP body to send with the request. This must be a valid UTF-8 string, and will be sent exactly as specified, with no additional encoding (e.g. URL-escaping or base64) applied. On Android, this can only be used with POST requests.

Static HTML

Note that using static HTML requires the WebView property originWhiteList to ['*']. For some content, such as video embeds (e.g. Twitter or Facebook posts with video), the baseUrl needs to be set for the video playback to work

html (string) - A static HTML page to display in the WebView.
baseUrl (string) - The base URL to be used for any relative links in the HTML. This is also used for the origin header with CORS requests made from the WebView. See Android WebView Docs

Type	Required
object	No

`automaticallyAdjustContentInsets`

Controls whether to adjust the content inset for web views that are placed behind a navigation bar, tab bar, or toolbar. The default value is true.

Type	Required	Platform
bool	No	iOS

`injectedJavaScript`

Set this to provide JavaScript that will be injected into the web page when the view loads. Make sure the string evaluates to a valid type (true works) and doesn’t otherwise throw an exception.

Type	Required
string	No

To learn more, read the Communicating between JS and Native guide.

Example:

Post message a JSON object of window.location to be handled by onMessage

const INJECTED_JAVASCRIPT = `(function() {
    window.ReactNativeWebView.postMessage(JSON.stringify(window.location));
})();`;

<WebView
  source={{ uri: 'https://facebook.github.io/react-native' }}
  injectedJavaScript={INJECTED_JAVASCRIPT}
  onMessage={this.onMessage}
/>;

`injectedJavaScriptBeforeContentLoaded`

Set this to provide JavaScript that will be injected into the web page after the document element is created, but before any other content is loaded. Make sure the string evaluates to a valid type (true works) and doesn’t otherwise throw an exception. On iOS, see WKUserScriptInjectionTimeAtDocumentStart

Type	Required
string	No

To learn more, read the Communicating between JS and Native guide.

Example:

Post message a JSON object of window.location to be handled by onMessage

})();`;

<WebView
  source={{ uri: 'https://facebook.github.io/react-native' }}
  injectedJavaScriptBeforeContentLoaded={INJECTED_JAVASCRIPT}
  onMessage={this.onMessage}
/>;

`mediaPlaybackRequiresUserAction`

Boolean that determines whether HTML5 audio and video requires the user to tap them before they start playing. The default value is true. (Android API minimum version 17).

NOTE: the default true value might cause some videos to hang loading on iOS. Setting it to false could fix this issue.

Type	Required
bool	No

When navigating back, content is not revalidated, instead the content is just retrieved from the cache. This property allows the client to override this behavior.

Possible values are:

LOAD_DEFAULT - Default cache usage mode. If the navigation type doesn’t impose any specific behavior, use cached resources when they are available and not expired, otherwise load resources from the network.
LOAD_CACHE_ELSE_NETWORK - Use cached resources when they are available, even if they have expired. Otherwise load resources from the network.
LOAD_NO_CACHE - Don’t use the cache, load from the network.

When setting the standard textZoom (100) parameter size, this undesirable effect disappears.

Type	Required	Platform
number	No	Android

Example:
