question

[ZUMA <st...@gmail.com>]

Hello,

I am trying to figure out how to load my custom view controller in my iOS app within the Cordova Framework.

For example, I want to load a custom view controller if the url that cordova is trying to open contains a certain string….

What method can I interact with to achieve this within the cordova framework?

Thank you

Likely this is the only list where Zuma will find the expertise to answer
this question.

When you create a new cordova-ios app, your MainViewController is a
subclass of CDVViewController.

If you comment out the following method, and provide an implementation,
then you will have a chance to inspect the new url before the base class
does.
Call super to let default processing continue,

- (BOOL) webView:(UIWebView*)theWebView
shouldStartLoadWithRequest:(NSURLRequest*)request
navigationType:(UIWebViewNavigationType)navigationType
{
    return [super webView:theWebView
shouldStartLoadWithRequest:request navigationType:navigationType];
}

Hi Zuma,

the dev list may not be the best place to get an answer. This list handles
discussions and issues around developing Cordova itself, not developing *with
*Cordova.

That having been said, you can take a look at
UIWebViewDelegate<https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/uikit/reference/UIWebViewDelegate_Protocol/Reference/Reference.html>
protocol
or  NSURLRequest<https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/Classes/NSURLRequest_Class/Reference/Reference.html>
documentation.
Both provide techniques to intercept and redirect based on the url the
WebView is trying to open.

You can look at the iOS View Controller programming
guide<https://developer.apple.com/library/IOS/featuredarticles/ViewControllerPGforiPhoneOS/Introduction/Introduction.html>for
more information on how that portion would be implemented.

Hope that helps,

- Lorin
