Invoking Application Functions on the Frontend Page

You can use the Web component to register application code with frontend pages. After the registration is done, frontend pages can use the registered object names to call application functions.

Two methods are available for registering the application code:

The following example registers the test() function with the frontend page. This way, the test() function can be triggered and run on the frontend page.

  • Sample code for using javaScriptProxy():

    // xxx.ets
import web_webview from '@ohos.web.webview';

class testClass {
  constructor() {
  }

  test(): string {
    return 'ArkTS Hello World!';
  }
}

@Entry
@Component
struct WebComponent {
  webviewController: web_webview.WebviewController = new web_webview.WebviewController();
  // Declare the object to be registered.
  @State testObj: testClass = new testClass();

  build() {
    Column() {
      // Load the local index.html page.
      Web({ src: $rawfile('index.html'), controller: this.webviewController})
        // Inject the object to the web client.
        .javaScriptProxy({
          object: this.testObj,
          name: "testObjName",
          methodList: ["test"],
          controller: this.webviewController
        })
    }
  }
}

  • Sample code for using registerJavaScriptProxy():

    // xxx.ets
import web_webview from '@ohos.web.webview';
import business_error from '@ohos.base';

class testClass {
  constructor() {
  }

  test(): string {
    return "ArkUI Web Component";
  }

  toString(): void {
    console.log('Web Component toString');
  }
}

@Entry
@Component
struct Index {
  webviewController: web_webview.WebviewController = new web_webview.WebviewController();
  @State testObj: testClass = new testClass();

  build() {
    Column() {
      Button('refresh')
        .onClick(() => {
          try {
            this.webviewController.refresh();
          } catch (error) {
            let e: business_error.BusinessError = error as business_error.BusinessError;
            console.error(`ErrorCode: ${e.code},  Message: ${e.message}`);
          }
        })
      Button('Register JavaScript To Window')
        .onClick(() => {
          try {
            this.webviewController.registerJavaScriptProxy(this.testObj, "testObjName", ["test", "toString"]);
          } catch (error) {
            let e: business_error.BusinessError = error as business_error.BusinessError;
            console.error(`ErrorCode: ${e.code},  Message: ${e.message}`);
          }
        })
      Web({ src: $rawfile('index.html'), controller: this.webviewController })
    }
  }
}

    NOTE

    If you use registerJavaScriptProxy() to register a function, call refresh() for the function to take effect.

  • Sample code for invoking application functions on the index.html frontend page:

    <!-- index.html -->
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<button type="button" onclick="callArkTS()">Click Me!</button>
<p id="demo"></p>
<script>
    function callArkTS() {
        let str = testObjName.test();
        document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = str;
        console.info('ArkTS Hello World! :' + str);
    }
</script>
</body>
</html>
