Wkwebview crashes at start in Pythonista beta 340007

[cvpe]

WKWebView.py it-self crashes with this error

The app was terminated due to an Objective-C exception. Details below:

2023-03-14 15:32:08.098719 Completion handler passed to -[CustomNavigationDelegate webView:decidePolicyForNavigationAction:decisionHandler:] was not called

Something similar? Here

Thanks for reporting this. Seems something has changed in Apple APIs.

It is unlikely I will look at this soon. PRs are very welcome.

WKWebView does not work with version 3.4 (Release of AppStore that is not TestFlight), is it the same problem?

[mikaelho]

This issue with my WKWebView wrapper is unlikely to be dependent on Pythonista version.

But the soon-to-be-released version of Pythonista is expected to contain an ”official” (and working) version of WKWebView.

[cvpe]

Yes but the Pythonista WkWebView does not support the add_script method

[mikaelho]

Hmm, it’s like 5 lines of code. Maybe we could see if we could get it added to the core version, or subclass and it ourselves.

[cvpe]

Sure!

This modified version is working for me on Pythonista 3.4. https://gist.github.com/sbbosco/1290f59d79c6963e62bb678f0f05b035
