This project provides a wrapping UIViewController around Apple´s new WKWebView, available as of iOS8 in WebKit. Also included is a wrapping UINavigationController to present the WKWebView modally.

To run the example project, clone the repo, and run pod install from the Example directory first.

To push a WKWebView onto your UINavigationController, do:

NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"https://github.com/sticksen/STKWebKitViewController"];
STKWebKitViewController *controller = [[STKWebKitViewController alloc] initWithURL:url];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:controller animated:YES];

To open it modally:

NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"https://github.com/sticksen/STKWebKitViewController"];
STKWebKitModalViewController *controller = [[STKWebKitModalViewController alloc] initWithURL:url];
[self presentViewController:controller animated:YES completion:nil];

It is possible to change the behaviour how the WKWebView opens links that would trigger a new tab opening on desktop browsers (aka. target=_blank - links). To change the behaviour, adjust newTabOpenMode to your desired choice.

It´s also possible to customize the NavigationBar and Toolbar colors.

To use the new UINavigationBar and UIToolbar hiding features of iOS8, set your navigationController to:

self.navigationController.hidesBarsOnSwipe = YES;

WebKit, UIKit

STKWebKitViewController is available through CocoaPods. To install it, simply add the following line to your Podfile:

pod "STKWebKitViewController"

Then include the Header somewhere in your project:

#import <STKWebKitViewController/STKWebKitViewController.h>
