Android bridge for sending messages between Java and JavaScript in WebView.

Русская версия (Russian version)

• convenient call of JS-functions/Java-methods with parameters
• call with callbacks support
• error handling in JS execution
• ability to transfer custom data types
• switching code execution to a UI thread

1. Provide the gradle dependency:

compile 'com.github.imangazalievm:scripto:2.1.1'

2. Copy the scripto.js file from sample-app\src\main\assets\scripto into assets folder.

If you want to see usage examples of the library, see sample-app folder.

Firstly, we need to initialize the library:

WebView webView = ...;
Scripto scripto = new Scripto.Builder(webView).build();
scripto.addJsFileFromAssets("scripto.js");

1. For example, we have file login.js with some functions:

function setLogin(login) {
    document.getElementById('login_field').value = login;
}

function getLogin() {
    return document.getElementById('login_field').value;
}

2. To call a function we must create Java-interface with JS-functions description:

public interface LoginScript {

    JavaScriptFunctionCall<Void> setLogin(String login);

    JavaScriptFunctionCall<String> getLogin();

}

Methods must return JavaScriptFunctionCall. In the parameters of JavaScriptFunctionCall we specify type of JS-function response. In our case the first function returns nothing (Void), and the second returns text (String).

3. Then we must link Java-interface and JS-file:

scripto.addJsFileFromAssets("login.js");

LoginScript loginScript = scripto.create(LoginScript.class);

The scripts must be linked to the interfaces before the page is loaded.

4. We can't use our script, because we need to wait for full page load, and for this we need to set a listener:

scripto.onPrepared(new ScriptoPrepareListener() {
    @Override
    public void onScriptoPrepared() {
         loginScript.setLogin("MySuperLogin").call();
    }
});

5. To obtain data from a function use the following syntax:

loginScript.getLogin()
    .onResponse(login -> Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, login, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show())
    .call();

Also we can handle errors, caused in JS-code:

.onError(error -> Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, error.getMessage(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show())

For the conversion of user-defined data type from JSON used GSON library.

If you want to get raw JSON, then necessarily to use class RawReponse:

JavaScriptFunctionCall<RawResponse> getJson();

Receiving JSON:

loginScript.getJson()
    .onResponse(response -> Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, response.getResponse(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show())
    .call();

1. Calling Java-methods from JavaScript very similar to default JavaScriptInterface. Create Java-class, which will act as JS-inteface:

public class AndroidInterface {

    private Context context;

    public AndroidInterface(Context context) {
        this.context = context;
    }

    public void showToastMessage(String text) {
        Toast.makeText(context, text, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }
}

For correct work of JS-interface must not contain methods with the same name. Otherwisе library will throws an exception. Also we don't need to set @JavaScriptInterface annotation.

2. Add interface to Scripto:

scripto.addInterface("Android", new AndroidInterface(context));

3. To call showToastMessage method we need to create JS-function with the same name:

function showToastMessage(text) {
  Scripto.call('Android', arguments);
};

In the function we call special library function and pass name of JS-interface and arguments.

Calling the method from JavaScript:

showToastMessage("My super message");

4. Just as in Java we can use callbacks:

public String showToastMessage(String text) {
    Toast.makeText(context, text, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    return "My super response";
}

Calling the method from JavaScript:

showToastMessage("My super message", function(responseString) {
    console.log(responseString);
});

If you want to pass user-defined data type from JavaScript, convert your data to JSON via JSON.stringify(object).

If you need to protect methods from an unauthorized call, then you can protect them @JavaScriptSecure annotation:

ScriptoInterfaceConfig config = new ScriptoInterfaceConfig().enableAnnotationProtection(true);
scripto.addInterface("Android", new AndroidInterface(this), config);

Don't forget to set an annotation on the method:

@JavaScriptSecure
public void showToastMessage(String text) {
    Toast.makeText(context, text, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
