JavaScript library to access to native functionality. Requires a webview with a postMessage bridge.
Library size ~1.2 Kb (min + gzip)
AMD, UMD, IIFE, ES Module builds available (see package dist folder). Open an issue if you need a different build.
We recommend to manage your dependencies using npm or yarn and use a bundler
like webpack or parcel. Once
configured, you can use
ES imports.
Install using npm:
npm i @tef-novum/webview-bridge
Install using yarn:
yarn add @tef-novum/webview-bridge
Import required function and use it:
import {setWebViewTitle} from '@tef-novum/webview-bridge';
setWebViewTitle('Hello, world');
Alternatively, you can import the library directly from a CDN:
<script src="https://unpkg.com/@tef-novum/webview-bridge/dist/webview-bridge-iife.min.js"></script>
<script>
webviewBridge.setWebViewTitle('Hello, world');
</script>
Available in B2P App version >=24.10
Returns true if WebView Bridge is available. Use this function to implement fallbacks in case the bridge is not available.
isWebViewBridgeAvailable: () => boolean;
iframeBy default, the bridge will be disabled inside an iframe. If you want to enable
it, add a data-enable-webview-bridge attribute to the host iframe element.
if (isWebViewBridgeAvailable()) {
nativeAlert('Hello'); // use bridge
} else {
myCustomAlert('Hello'); // use alternative implementation
}
You may want to detect if the page is displayed inside a regular browser or an Android or iOS WebView.

render file types not supported by Safari.https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/6feaed05-89f2-467b-b017-dc966bae1213
The behavior will be similar to the current webview download mode but downloading the file before showing it
1.- Once the file is correctly procesed, it will be stored in a tmp directory 2.- The app will open a modal webview presenting the local file in a web browser similar to the one used in download webview mode but hiding the "Open in Safari" button (due to no sense for a local file).

Log an event to firebase
logEvent: ({
category: string; // Typically the object that was interacted with (e.g. 'Video')
action: string; // The type of interaction (e.g. 'play')
label?: string; // Useful for categorizing events (e.g. 'Fall Campaign')
value?: number; // A numeric value associated with the event (e.g. 43)
}) => Promise<void>;
If you want to use new Google Analytics 4 event format you can use this method too:
logEvent: ({
name: string; // The event name is mandatory
[key: string]: any; // You can set any other event parameters
}, {
sanitize?: boolean; // Whether to sanitize the event params, this only affects to FirebaseEvents. true by default.
}) => Promise<void>;
logEvent({
category: 'topup-flow',
action: 'topup',
}).then(() => {
console.log('event logged');
});
// Or with GA4 format
logEvent({
name: 'user_interaction',
component_type: 'primary_button',
component_copy: 'topup',
}).then(() => {
console.log('event logged');
});
By default, GA4 event params are sanitized. The sanitization consists of removing whitespaces and some special characters, lowercasing and trimming. This allows us having a consistent event format accross events.
In some cases you may want to disable this behavior. To do so, you can set the
sanitize option to false:
logEvent(yourEvent, {sanitize: false});

Shows a loading overlay screen while a task is being performed. You can control
when to hide it with the hideLoadingOverlay method.
Note: Depending on the configuration used to show the overlay,
hideLoadingOverlay won't immediately hide it, in all cases you should wait for
its promise to be resolved in order to know when the native overlay is
effectively closed.
| Overlay Success Example | Overlay Failure Example |
|---|---|
showLoadingOverlay: ({

get/set the number of unseen notifications in the inbox and the last time the counter was updated (timestamp in milliseconds).
getUnseenNotificationsBadge: () => Promise<{unseenNotificationCounter: number; lastUpdated: number}>;
setUnseenNotificationsBadge: ({unseenNotificationCounter: number; lastUpdated: number}) => Promise<void>;
When the webview is opened, it will ask to the native app for the unseen
notifications badge (getUnseenNotificationsBadge). This allows the webview to
know if the native app has received any push while the webview was closed. The
webview will check the lastUpdated timestamp receibed from the native app with
the one persisted in the webview localStorage, if it's different, the webview
will fetch the inbox from server. When the webview updates their state, it will
persist the lastUpdated timestamp in the localStorage and send it to the native
app using the setUnseenNotificationsBadge. This way, the next time the webview
use the getter, it will know if the lastUpdated matches with the one persisted
in localStorage.
App version >=25.0
Datamob is a native library that offer developers a way to integrate security and remote device control features into their applications.
The application that implements the Datamob library must be registered as a system management application (Device Admin). This configuration is essential to allow the application to have sufficient permissions to execute security commands, such as screen lock and factory reset.
This method opens a setting screen asking the user to accept system management permissions for the application.
requestDatamobDeviceAdmin: () => Promise<{isAdmin: boolean}>;
isAdmin is true if the permission was granted.

App version >=25.0
The application that implements the Datamob should have an user registered. This method is used to register one.
registerDatamobUser: ({phoneNumber: string, tokenPassword: string}) => Promise<void>;
phoneNumber: The phone number of the user.tokenPassword: When registering the device, datamob generate an accessKey
that is recorded in the Datamob device registry. By combining this attribute
with a hash that we keep in a password vault, generate this token.If the registration fails, the promise will be rejected with an error object with the following type:
{
code: 500;
reason: `Registration error: ${errorDescription}`;
}
App version >=25.0
Datamob sdk allows to send remote commands to the user device. These remote commands include actions such as locking the device screen (lock screen) or even forcing a wipe (factory reset) of the device, providing additional security control for the end user.
This method returns a map with the requirements. Each requirement is a boolean value where true is valid, false is not valid.
validateDatamobRequirements: ({phoneNumber: string, tokenPassword: string}) => Promise<{
requirements: {
deviceAdmin: boolean;
googleAccount: boolean;
lockPassword: boolean;
accessibilityOption: boolean;
invalidPassword: boolean;
invalidToken: boolean;
}
}>
phoneNumber: The phone number of the user.
tokenPassword: When registering the device, datamob generate an accessKey
that is recorded in the Datamob device registry. By combining this attribute
with a hash that we keep in a password vault, generate this token.
requirements: A map with the requirements.
App version >=24.12 (iOS only)
Uses the Qualtrics SDK to display a survey intercept to the user if possible.
The native app will try to show the survey related to the provided interceptId
It will return a boolean (displayed) indicating if the survey has been
displayed or not.
displayQualtricsIntercept: ({interceptId: string}) => Promise<{displayed: boolean}>;
{
code: 500;
reason: 'Internal Error'; // If an error occurred invoking the SDK;
}
{
code: 501;
reason: 'SDK not initialized';
}
App version >=24.12 (iOS only)
Method to set properties in Qualtrics SDK before displaying a survey.
setQualtricsProperties: ({
stringProperties: Array<QualtricsProperty<string>>;
numberProperties: Array<QualtricsProperty<number>>;
dateTimePropertyKeys: Array<string>;
}) => Promise<void>;
{
code: 500;
reason: 'Internal Error'; // If an error occurred invoking the SDK;
}
{
code: 501;
reason: 'SDK not initialized';
}
App version >=24.12 (iOS only)
Check if a Qualtrics intercept is available for the user.
isQualtricsInterceptAvailableForUser: ({interceptId: string}) => Promise<{isAvailable: boolean}>;
{
code: 500;
reason: 'Internal Error'; // If an error occurred invoking the SDK;
}
{
code: 501;
reason: 'SDK not initialized';
}
If an uncontrolled error occurs, promise will be rejected with an error object:
{code: number, description: string}
