A Javascript library for sending native-style alerts (without the current URL as the title) from a web app/site running in a mobile app's WebView. This also adds a confirm-style alert with multiple configurable buttons.
This extends the functionality of Tim Coulter's JockeyJS lib (https://github.com/tcoulter/jockeyjs) by adding alert() and confirm() functions to the Jockey JS object. However, currently, it requires a fork of that lib that has one small change (https://github.com/t-evans/jockeyjs).
Javascript/webapp Setup:
- Copy the jockey.alerts.js and jockey.js files to your web app (you can obtain the latest jockey.js file from https://github.com/t-evans/jockeyjs).
For Javascript usage, see html/example.html.
iOS Setup:
-
Download and install the Jockeyjs library using the link above
-
Set up Jockey to listen to web URLs (taken from the jockeyjs setup instructions):
-(BOOL)webView:(UIWebView *)webView shouldStartLoadWithRequest:(NSURLRequest *)request navigationType:(UIWebViewNavigationType)navigationType { return [Jockey webView:webView withUrl:[request URL]]; } -
Copy the JockeyjsAlerts.h and .m files into your Xcode project
-
At some point in your app, ask the JockeyjsAlerts class to start listening for events from UIWebViews.
[JockeyjsAlerts listen];
Android Setup:
(not supported yet but should be available soon)
