A Flutter plugin that allows you to open an in-app browser window.
This plugin is inspired by the popular [cordova-plugin-inappbrowser](https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-inappbrowser)!

## Getting Started

For help getting started with Flutter, view our online
[documentation](https://flutter.io/).

For help on editing plugin code, view the [documentation](https://flutter.io/developing-packages/#edit-plugin-package).

## Installation
First, add `flutter_inappbrowser` as a [dependency in your pubspec.yaml file](https://flutter.io/using-packages/).

## Usage
Classes:
- [InAppBrowser](#inappbrowser): Native WebView.
- [ChromeSafariBrowser](#chromesafaribrowser): [Chrome Custom Tabs](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/customtabs/package-summary) on Android / [SFSafariViewController](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/safariservices/sfsafariviewcontroller) on iOS.

Screenshots [here](#screenshots).

### `InAppBrowser` class
Native WebView.

Create a Class that extends the `InAppBrowser` Class in order to override the callbacks to manage the browser events.
Example:
```dart
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_inappbrowser/flutter_inappbrowser.dart';

class MyInAppBrowser extends InAppBrowser {

  @override
  void onLoadStart(String url) {
    print("\n\nStarted $url\n\n");
  }

  @override
  Future onLoadStop(String url) async {
    print("\n\nStopped $url\n\n");

    // call a javascript message handler
    await this.injectScriptCode("window.flutter_inappbrowser.callHandler('handlerNameTest', 1, 5,'string', {'key': 5}, [4,6,8]);");

    // print body html
    print(await this.injectScriptCode("document.body.innerHTML"));

    // console messages
    await this.injectScriptCode("console.log({'testObject': 5});"); // the message will be: [object Object]
    await this.injectScriptCode("console.log('testObjectStringify', JSON.stringify({'testObject': 5}));"); // the message will be: testObjectStringify {"testObject": 5}
    await this.injectScriptCode("console.error('testError', false);"); // the message will be: testError false
    
    // add jquery library and custom javascript
    await this.injectScriptFile("https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.3.1.min.js");
    this.injectScriptCode("""
      \$( "body" ).html( "Next Step..." )
    """);
    
    // add custom css
    this.injectStyleCode("""
    body {
      background-color: #3c3c3c !important;
    }
    """);
    this.injectStyleFile("https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.1.3/css/bootstrap.min.css");
  }

  @override
  void onLoadError(String url, int code, String message) {
    print("\n\nCan't load $url.. Error: $message\n\n");
  }

  @override
  void onExit() {
    print("\n\nBrowser closed!\n\n");
  }
  
  @override
  void shouldOverrideUrlLoading(String url) {
    print("\n\n override $url\n\n");
    this.loadUrl(url);
  }

  @override
  void onLoadResource(WebResourceResponse response, WebResourceRequest request) {
    print("Started at: " + response.startTime.toString() + "ms ---> duration: " + response.duration.toString() + "ms " + response.url);
  }

  @override
  void onConsoleMessage(ConsoleMessage consoleMessage) {
    print("""
    console output:
      sourceURL: ${consoleMessage.sourceURL}
      lineNumber: ${consoleMessage.lineNumber}
      message: ${consoleMessage.message}
      messageLevel: ${consoleMessage.messageLevel}
    """);
  }

}

MyInAppBrowser inAppBrowser = new MyInAppBrowser();

void main() => runApp(new MyApp());

class MyApp extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  _MyAppState createState() => new _MyAppState();
}

class _MyAppState extends State<MyApp> {

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();

    // listen for post messages coming from the JavaScript side
    int indexTest = inAppBrowser.addJavaScriptHandler("handlerNameTest", (arguments) async {
      print("handlerNameTest arguments");
      print(arguments); // it prints: [1, 5, string, {key: 5}, [4, 6, 8]]
    });
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return new MaterialApp(
      home: new Scaffold(
        appBar: new AppBar(
          title: const Text('Flutter InAppBrowser Plugin example app'),
        ),
        body: new Center(
          child: new RaisedButton(onPressed: () {
            inAppBrowser.open(url: "https://flutter.io/", options: {
               "useShouldOverrideUrlLoading": true,
               "useOnLoadResource": true
             });
          },
          child: Text("Open InAppBrowser")
          ),
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}
```

#### Future\<void\> InAppBrowser.open

Opens a URL in a new InAppBrowser instance or the system browser.

```dart
inAppBrowser.open({String url = "about:blank", Map<String, String> headers = const {}, String target = "_self", Map<String, dynamic> options = const {}});
```

Opens an `url` in a new `InAppBrowser` instance or the system browser.

- `url`: The `url` to load. Call `encodeUriComponent()` on this if the `url` contains Unicode characters. The default value is `about:blank`.

- `headers`: The additional headers to be used in the HTTP request for this URL, specified as a map from name to value.

- `target`: The target in which to load the `url`, an optional parameter that defaults to `_self`.

  - `_self`: Opens in the `InAppBrowser`.
  - `_blank`: Opens in the `InAppBrowser`.
  - `_system`: Opens in the system's web browser.

- `options`: Options for the `InAppBrowser`.

  All platforms support:
  - __useShouldOverrideUrlLoading__: Set to `true` to be able to listen at the `shouldOverrideUrlLoading` event. The default value is `false`.
  - __useOnLoadResource__: Set to `true` to be able to listen at the `onLoadResource()` event. The default value is `false`.
  - __clearCache__: Set to `true` to have all the browser's cache cleared before the new window is opened. The default value is `false`.
  - __userAgent___: Set the custom WebView's user-agent.
  - __javaScriptEnabled__: Set to `true` to enable JavaScript. The default value is `true`.
  - __javaScriptCanOpenWindowsAutomatically__: Set to `true` to allow JavaScript open windows without user interaction. The default value is `false`.
  - __hidden__: Set to `true` to create the browser and load the page, but not show it. The `onLoadStop` event fires when loading is complete. Omit or set to `false` (default) to have the browser open and load normally.
  - __toolbarTop__: Set to `false` to hide the toolbar at the top of the WebView. The default value is `true`.
  - __toolbarTopBackgroundColor__: Set the custom background color of the toolbat at the top.
  - __hideUrlBar__: Set to `true` to hide the url bar on the toolbar at the top. The default value is `false`.
  - __mediaPlaybackRequiresUserGesture__: Set to `true` to prevent HTML5 audio or video from autoplaying. The default value is `true`.
  
  **Android** supports these additional options:
  
  - __hideTitleBar__: Set to `true` if you want the title should be displayed. The default value is `false`.
  - __closeOnCannotGoBack__: Set to `false` to not close the InAppBrowser when the user click on the back button and the WebView cannot go back to the history. The default value is `true`.
  - __clearSessionCache__: Set to `true` to have the session cookie cache cleared before the new window is opened.
  - __builtInZoomControls__: Set to `true` if the WebView should use its built-in zoom mechanisms. The default value is `false`.
  - __supportZoom__: Set to `false` if the WebView should not support zooming using its on-screen zoom controls and gestures. The default value is `true`.
  - __databaseEnabled__: Set to `true` if you want the database storage API is enabled. The default value is `false`.
  - __domStorageEnabled__: Set to `true` if you want the DOM storage API is enabled. The default value is `false`.
  - __useWideViewPort__: Set to `true` if the WebView should enable support for the "viewport" HTML meta tag or should use a wide viewport. When the value of the setting is false, the layout width is always set to the width of the WebView control in device-independent (CSS) pixels. When the value is true and the page contains the viewport meta tag, the value of the width specified in the tag is used. If the page does not contain the tag or does not provide a width, then a wide viewport will be used. The default value is `true`.
  - __safeBrowsingEnabled__: Set to `true` if you want the Safe Browsing is enabled. Safe Browsing allows WebView to protect against malware and phishing attacks by verifying the links. The default value is `true`.
  - __progressBar__: Set to `false` to hide the progress bar at the bottom of the toolbar at the top. The default value is `true`.

  **iOS** supports these additional options:
 
  - __disallowOverScroll__: Set to `true` to disable the bouncing of the WebView when the scrolling has reached an edge of the content. The default value is `false`.
  - __toolbarBottom__: Set to `false` to hide the toolbar at the bottom of the WebView. The default value is `true`.
  - __toolbarBottomBackgroundColor__: Set the custom background color of the toolbat at the bottom.
  - __toolbarBottomTranslucent__: Set to `true` to set the toolbar at the bottom translucent. The default value is `true`.
  - __closeButtonCaption__: Set the custom text for the close button.
  - __closeButtonColor__: Set the custom color for the close button.
  - __presentationStyle__: Set the custom modal presentation style when presenting the WebView. The default value is `0 //fullscreen`. See [UIModalPresentationStyle](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uimodalpresentationstyle) for all the available styles. 
  - __transitionStyle__: Set to the custom transition style when presenting the WebView. The default value is `0 //crossDissolve`. See [UIModalTransitionStyle](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uimodaltransitionStyle) for all the available styles.
  - __enableViewportScale__: Set to `true` to allow a viewport meta tag to either disable or restrict the range of user scaling. The default value is `false`.
  - __suppressesIncrementalRendering__: Set to `true` if you want the WebView suppresses content rendering until it is fully loaded into memory.. The default value is `false`.
  - __allowsAirPlayForMediaPlayback__: Set to `true` to allow AirPlay. The default value is `true`.
  - __allowsBackForwardNavigationGestures__: Set to `true` to allow the horizontal swipe gestures trigger back-forward list navigations. The default value is `true`.
  - __allowsLinkPreview__: Set to `true` to allow that pressing on a link displays a preview of the destination for the link. The default value is `true`.
  - __ignoresViewportScaleLimits__: Set to `true` if you want that the WebView should always allow scaling of the webpage, regardless of the author's intent. The ignoresViewportScaleLimits property overrides the `user-scalable` HTML property in a webpage. The default value is `false`.
  - __allowsInlineMediaPlayback__: Set to `true` to allow HTML5 media playback to appear inline within the screen layout, using browser-supplied controls rather than native controls. For this to work, add the `webkit-playsinline` attribute to any `<video>` elements. The default value is `false`.
  - __allowsPictureInPictureMediaPlayback__: Set to `true` to allow HTML5 videos play picture-in-picture. The default value is `true`.
  - __spinner__: Set to `false` to hide the spinner when the WebView is loading a page. The default value is `true`.

inAppBrowser.open('https://flutter.io/', options: {
  "useShouldOverrideUrlLoading": true,
  "useOnLoadResource": true,
  "clearCache": true,
  "disallowOverScroll": true,
  "domStorageEnabled": true,
  "supportZoom": false,
  "toolbarBottomTranslucent": false,
  "allowsLinkPreview": false
});
``` 

#### Events

Event fires when the `InAppBrowser` starts to load an `url`.
```dart
  @override
  void onLoadStart(String url) {
  
  }
```

Event fires when the `InAppBrowser` finishes loading an `url`.
```dart
  @override
  void onLoadStop(String url) {
  
  }
```

Event fires when the `InAppBrowser` encounters an error loading an `url`.
```dart
  @override
  void onLoadError(String url, String code, String message) {
  
  }
```

Event fires when the `InAppBrowser` window is closed.
```dart
  @override
  void onExit() {
  
  }
```

Event fires when the `InAppBrowser` webview receives a `ConsoleMessage`.
```dart
  @override
  void onConsoleMessage(ConsoleMessage consoleMessage) {

  }
```

Give the host application a chance to take control when a URL is about to be loaded in the current WebView.

**NOTE**: In order to be able to listen this event, you need to set `useShouldOverrideUrlLoading` option to `true`.
```dart
  @override
  void shouldOverrideUrlLoading(String url) {

  }
```

Event fires when the `InAppBrowser` webview loads a resource.

**NOTE**: In order to be able to listen this event, you need to set `useOnLoadResource` option to `true`.

**NOTE only for iOS**: In some cases, the `response.data` of a `response` with `text/html` encoding could be empty.
```dart
  @override
  void onLoadResource(WebResourceResponse response, WebResourceRequest request) {

  }
```

#### Future\<void\> InAppBrowser.loadUrl

Loads the given `url` with optional `headers` specified as a map from name to value.

```dart
inAppBrowser.loadUrl(String url, {Map<String, String> headers = const {}});
```

#### Future\<void\> InAppBrowser.show

Displays an `InAppBrowser` window that was opened hidden. Calling this has no effect if the `InAppBrowser` was already visible.

```dart
inAppBrowser.show();
``` 

#### Future\<void\> InAppBrowser.hide

Hides the `InAppBrowser` window. Calling this has no effect if the `InAppBrowser` was already hidden.

```dart
inAppBrowser.hide();
``` 

#### Future\<void\> InAppBrowser.close

Closes the `InAppBrowser` window.

```dart
inAppBrowser.close();
``` 

#### Future\<void\> InAppBrowser.reload

Reloads the `InAppBrowser` window.

```dart
inAppBrowser.reload();
``` 

#### Future\<void\> InAppBrowser.goBack

Goes back in the history of the `InAppBrowser` window.

```dart
inAppBrowser.goBack();
``` 

#### Future\<void\> InAppBrowser.goForward

Goes forward in the history of the `InAppBrowser` window.

```dart
inAppBrowser.goForward();
``` 

#### Future\<bool\> InAppBrowser.isLoading

Check if the Web View of the `InAppBrowser` instance is in a loading state.

```dart
inAppBrowser.isLoading();
``` 

#### Future\<void\> InAppBrowser.stopLoading

Stops the Web View of the `InAppBrowser` instance from loading.

```dart
inAppBrowser.stopLoading();
``` 

#### Future\<bool\> InAppBrowser.isHidden

Check if the Web View of the `InAppBrowser` instance is hidden.

```dart
inAppBrowser.isHidden();
``` 

#### Future\<String\> InAppBrowser.injectScriptCode

Injects JavaScript code into the `InAppBrowser` window and returns the result of the evaluation. (Only available when the target is set to `_blank` or to `_self`)

```dart
inAppBrowser.injectScriptCode(String source);
``` 

#### Future\<void\> InAppBrowser.injectScriptFile

Injects a JavaScript file into the `InAppBrowser` window. (Only available when the target is set to `_blank` or to `_self`)

```dart
inAppBrowser.injectScriptFile(String urlFile);
``` 

#### Future\<void\> InAppBrowser.injectStyleCode

Injects CSS into the `InAppBrowser` window. (Only available when the target is set to `_blank` or to `_self`)

```dart
inAppBrowser.injectStyleCode(String source);
``` 

#### Future\<void\> InAppBrowser.injectStyleFile

Injects a CSS file into the `InAppBrowser` window. (Only available when the target is set to `_blank` or to `_self`)

```dart
inAppBrowser.injectStyleFile(String urlFile);
```

#### int InAppBrowser.addJavaScriptHandler

Adds/Appends a JavaScript message handler `callback` (`JavaScriptHandlerCallback`) that listen to post messages sent from JavaScript by the handler with name `handlerName`.
Returns the position `index` of the handler that can be used to remove it with the `removeJavaScriptHandler()` method.

The Android implementation uses [addJavascriptInterface](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/WebView#addJavascriptInterface(java.lang.Object,%20java.lang.String)).
The iOS implementation uses [addScriptMessageHandler](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/webkit/wkusercontentcontroller/1537172-addscriptmessagehandler?language=objc)

The JavaScript function that can be used to call the handler is `window.flutter_inappbrowser.callHandler(handlerName <String>, ...args);`, where `args` are [rest parameters](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Functions/rest_parameters).
The `args` will be stringified automatically using `JSON.stringify(args)` method and then they will be decoded on the Dart side.

```dart
inAppBrowser.addJavaScriptHandler(String handlerName, JavaScriptHandlerCallback callback);
```

#### bool InAppBrowser.removeJavaScriptHandler

Removes a JavaScript message handler previously added with the `addJavaScriptHandler()` method in the `handlerName` list by its position `index`.
Returns `true` if the callback is removed, otherwise `false`.
```dart
inAppBrowser.removeJavaScriptHandler(String handlerName, int index);
```
