Overview

KINWebBrowser consists of a single component:

KINWebBrowserViewController must be contained in a UINavigationController.

Pushing to the navigation stack:

KINWebBrowserViewController *webBrowser = [KINWebBrowserViewController webBrowser];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:webBrowser animated:YES];
[webBrowser loadURLString:@"http://www.example.com"];

Presenting Modally:

UINavigationController *webBrowserNavigationController = [KINWebBrowserViewController navigationControllerWithWebBrowser];
[self presentViewController:webBrowserNavigationController animated:YES completion:nil];

KINWebBrowserViewController *webBrowser = [webBrowserNavigationController rootWebBrowser];
[webBrowser loadURLString:@"http://www.example.com"];

Installation

CocoaPods

CocoaPods is a dependency manager for Objective-C, which automates and simplifies the process of using 3rd-party libraries in your projects. See the "Getting Started" for more information.

Podfile

platform :ios, '7.0'
pod 'KINWebBrowser'

Dependencies

These dependency projects should be also installed with KINWebBrowser. They are installed automatically when installing KINWebBrowser with CocoaPods.

• ARChromeActivity - a UIActivity subclass that provides an "Open In Google Chrome" action to a UIActivityViewController

Customizing the User Interface

Tint Color

The tint color of the toolbars and toolbar items can be customized.

webBrowser.tintColor = [UIColor blueColor];
webBrowser.barTintColor = [UIColor blackColor];

Title Bar Content

The URL can be shown in the UINavigationBar while loading. The title of the page can be shown when loading completes.

webBrowser.showsURLInNavigationBar = NO;
webBrowser.showsPageTitleInNavigationBar = YES;

Implementing KINWebBrowserDelegate Protocol

KINWebBrowserDelegate is a set of @optional callback methods to inform the delegate of status changes.

- (void)webBrowser:(KINWebBrowserViewController *)webBrowser didStartLoadingURL:(NSURL *)URL;
- (void)webBrowser:(KINWebBrowserViewController *)webBrowser didFinishLoadingURL:(NSURL *)URL;
- (void)webBrowser:(KINWebBrowserViewController *)webBrowser didFailToLoadURL:(NSURL *)URL withError:(NSError *)error;
