Struct wry::webview::WebView

pub struct WebView { /* fields omitted */ }

The fundamental type to present a WebView.

WebViewBuilder / WebView are the basic building blocks to constrcut WebView contents and scripts for those who prefer to control fine grained window creation and event handling. WebView presents the actuall WebView window and let you still able to perform actions during event handling to it. WebView also contains the associate Window with it.

Implementations

impl WebView

pub fn new(window: Window) -> Result<Self>

Create a WebView from provided Window. Note that calling this directly loses abilities to initialize scripts, add rpc handler, and many more before starting WebView. To benefit from above features, create a WebViewBuilder instead.

Platform-specific behavior:

• Unix: This method must be called in a gtk thread. Usually this means it should be called in the same thread with the EventLoop you create.

pub fn window(&self) -> &Window

Get the Window associate with the WebView. This can let you perform window related actions.

pub fn evaluate_script(&self, js: &str) -> Result<()>

Evaluate and run javascript code. Must be called on the same thread who created the WebView. Use EventLoopProxy and a custom event to send scripts from other threads.

pub fn print(&self) -> Result<()>

Launch print modal for the webview content.

pub fn resize(&self) -> Result<()>

Resize the WebView manually. This is required on Windows because its WebView API doesn’t provide a way to resize automatically.

pub fn focus(&self)

Moves Focus to the Webview control.

It’s usually safe to call focus method on Window which would also focus to WebView except Windows. Focussing to Window doesn’t mean focussing to WebView on Windows. For example, if you have an input field on webview and lost focus, you will have to explicitly click the field even you re-focus the window. And if you focus to WebView, it will lost focus to the Window.

Trait Implementations

impl Drop for WebView

fn drop(&mut self)

Executes the destructor for this type.
