How to get return value from javascript in WebView of Android?

I want to get a return value from J开发者_如何学Cavascript in Android. I can do it with the iPhone, but I can't with Android. I used loadUrl, but it returned void instead of an object. Can anybody help me?

Same as Keith but shorter answer

webView.addJavascriptInterface(this, "android");
webView.loadUrl("javascript:android.onData(functionThatReturnsSomething)");

And implement the function

@JavascriptInterface
public void onData(String value) {
   //.. do something with the data
}

Don't forget to remove the onData from proguard list (if you have enabled proguard)

Here's a hack on how you can accomplish it:

Add this Client to your WebView:

final class MyWebChromeClient extends WebChromeClient {
        @Override
        public boolean onJsAlert(WebView view, String url, String message, JsResult result) {
            Log.d("LogTag", message);
            result.confirm();
            return true;
        }
    }

Now in your javascript call do:

webView.loadUrl("javascript:alert(functionThatReturnsSomething)");

Now in the onJsAlert call "message" will contain the returned value.

Use addJavascriptInterface() to add a Java object to the Javascript environment. Have your Javascript call a method on that Java object to supply its "return value".

Here's what I came up with today. It's thread-safe, reasonably efficient, and allows for synchronous Javascript execution from Java for an Android WebView.

Works in Android 2.2 and up. (Requires commons-lang because I need my code snippets passed to eval() as a Javascript string. You could remove this dependency by wrapping the code not in quotation marks, but in function(){})

First, add this to your Javascript file:

function evalJsForAndroid(evalJs_index, jsString) {
    var evalJs_result = "";
    try {
        evalJs_result = ""+eval(jsString);
    } catch (e) {
        console.log(e);
    }
    androidInterface.processReturnValue(evalJs_index, evalJs_result);
}

Then, add this to your Android activity:

private Handler handler = new Handler();
private final AtomicInteger evalJsIndex = new AtomicInteger(0);
private final Map<Integer, String> jsReturnValues = new HashMap<Integer, String>();
private final Object jsReturnValueLock = new Object();
private WebView webView;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView);
    webView.addJavascriptInterface(new MyJavascriptInterface(this), "androidInterface");
}

public String evalJs(final String js) {
    final int index = evalJsIndex.incrementAndGet();
    handler.post(new Runnable() {
        public void run() {
            webView.loadUrl("javascript:evalJsForAndroid(" + index + ", " +
                                    "\"" + StringEscapeUtils.escapeEcmaScript(js) + "\")");
        }
    });
    return waitForJsReturnValue(index, 10000);
}

private String waitForJsReturnValue(int index, int waitMs) {
    long start = System.currentTimeMillis();

    while (true) {
        long elapsed = System.currentTimeMillis() - start;
        if (elapsed > waitMs)
            break;
        synchronized (jsReturnValueLock) {
            String value = jsReturnValues.remove(index);
            if (value != null)
                return value;

            long toWait = waitMs - (System.currentTimeMillis() - start);
            if (toWait > 0)
                try {
                    jsReturnValueLock.wait(toWait);
                } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                    break;
                }
            else
                break;
        }
    }
    Log.e("MyActivity", "Giving up; waited " + (waitMs/1000) + "sec for return value " + index);
    return "";
}

private void processJsReturnValue(int index, String value) {
    synchronized (jsReturnValueLock) {
        jsReturnValues.put(index, value);
        jsReturnValueLock.notifyAll();
    }
}

private static class MyJavascriptInterface {
    private MyActivity activity;

    public MyJavascriptInterface(MyActivity activity) {
        this.activity = activity;
    }

    // this annotation is required in Jelly Bean and later:
    @JavascriptInterface
    public void processReturnValue(int index, String value) {
        activity.processJsReturnValue(index, value);
    }
}

On API 19+, the best way to do this is to call evaluateJavascript on your WebView:

webView.evaluateJavascript("foo.bar()", new ValueCallback<String>() {
    @Override public void onReceiveValue(String value) {
        // value is the result returned by the Javascript as JSON
    }
});

The solution that @Felix Khazin suggested works, but there is one key point missing.

The javascript call should be made after the web page in the WebView is loaded. Add this WebViewClient to the WebView, along with the WebChromeClient.

Full Example:

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    ...
    WebView webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.web_view);
    webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
    webView.setWebViewClient(new MyWebViewClient());
    webView.setWebChromeClient(new MyWebChromeClient());
    webView.loadUrl("http://example.com");
}

private class MyWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
    @Override
    public void onPageFinished (WebView view, String url){
        view.loadUrl("javascript:alert(functionThatReturnsSomething())");
    }
    @Override
    public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
        return false;
    }
}

private class MyWebChromeClient extends WebChromeClient {
@Override
public boolean onJsAlert(WebView view, String url, String message, JsResult result) {
    Log.d("LogTag", message);
        result.confirm();
        return true;
    }
}

As an alternative variant that uses a custom scheme to communicate Android native code <-> HTML/JS code. for example MRAID uses this technic^[About]

MainActivity

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT) {
            WebView.setWebContentsDebuggingEnabled(true);
        }

        final WebView webview = new CustomWebView(this);
        setContentView(webview);
        webview.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/customPage.html");

        webview.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {

                //Android -> JS
                webview.loadUrl("javascript:showToast()");
            }
        }, 1000);
    }
}

CustomWebView

public class CustomWebView extends WebView {
    public CustomWebView(Context context) {
        super(context);

        setup();
    }

    @SuppressLint("SetJavaScriptEnabled")
    private void setup() {
        setWebViewClient(new AdWebViewClient());

        getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
    }

    private class AdWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {

        @Override
        public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {

            if (url.startsWith("customschema://")) {
                //parse uri
                Toast.makeText(CustomWebView.this.getContext(), "event was received", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

                return true;
            }
            return false;
        }

    }
}

customPage.html (located in the assets folded)

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>JavaScript View</title>

    <script type="text/javascript">
        <!--JS -> Android-->
        function showToast() {
            window.location = "customschema://goto/";
        }
    </script>
</head>

<body>

You can do it like this:

[Activity(Label = "@string/app_name", Theme = "@style/AppTheme", MainLauncher = true)]
public class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity
{
    public WebView web_view;
    public static TextView textView;

    protected override void OnCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
    {
        base.OnCreate(savedInstanceState);
        Xamarin.Essentials.Platform.Init(this, savedInstanceState);

        Window.AddFlags(WindowManagerFlags.Fullscreen);
        Window.ClearFlags(WindowManagerFlags.ForceNotFullscreen);

        // Set our view from the "main" layout resource
        SetContentView (Resource.Layout.main);

        web_view = FindViewById<WebView>(Resource.Id.webView);
        textView = FindViewById<TextView>(Resource.Id.textView);

        web_view.Settings.JavaScriptEnabled = true;
        web_view.SetWebViewClient(new SMOSWebViewClient());
        web_view.LoadUrl("https://stns.egyptair.com");
    }

    public override void OnRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, string[] permissions, [GeneratedEnum] Android.Content.PM.Permission[] grantResults)
    {
        Xamarin.Essentials.Platform.OnRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);

        base.OnRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);
    }
}

public class SMOSWebViewClient : WebViewClient
{
    public override bool ShouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, IWebResourceRequest request)
    {
        view.LoadUrl(request.Url.ToString());
        return false;
    }

    public override void OnPageFinished(WebView view, string url)
    {
        view.EvaluateJavascript("document.getElementsByClassName('notf')[0].innerHTML;", new JavascriptResult());
    }
}

public class JavascriptResult : Java.Lang.Object, IValueCallback
{
    public string Result;

    public void OnReceiveValue(Java.Lang.Object result)
    {
        string json = ((Java.Lang.String)result).ToString();
        Result = json;
        MainActivity.textView.Text = Result.Replace("\"", string.Empty);
    }
}
