How to Handle Image uploading in WKWebview? - ios

Question

I have use webkit to show url on my app.
when I click on image button(green button in ), it shows
camera or photo library.
issue is, when click Use photo, the webkit
refresh automatically instead showing on page
I have already give photo usage, media, camera permission in plist file
my code is
import UIKit
import WebKit
import Alamofire
class ContinueViewController: UIViewController, WKUIDelegate {
#IBOutlet weak var activityView: UIActivityIndicatorView!
#IBOutlet weak var webview: WKWebView!
func getPostString(params:[String:Any]) -> String{
var data = [String]()
for(key, value) in params
{
data.append(key + "=\(value)")
}
return data.map { String($0) }.joined(separator: "&")
}
var url: URL?
var traderCategoryId = 0, tradeSkillId = 0
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
webview.navigationDelegate = self
self.navigationController?.navigationBar.isHidden = false
webview.uiDelegate = self
}
override func viewWillAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
super.viewWillAppear(animated)
activityView.startAnimating()
guard let url = self.url else { return }
var req = URLRequest(url: url)
let params = ["id" : id,"trader_skills" : tradeSkillId]
let postString = self.getPostString(params: params)
req.addValue("application/x-www-form-urlencoded", forHTTPHeaderField: "Content-Type")
req.httpMethod = "POST"
req.httpBody = postString.data(using: .utf8)
self.webview.load(req)
}
}
extension ContinueViewController: WKNavigationDelegate {
func webView(_ webView: WKWebView, didFinish navigation: WKNavigation!) {
activityView.stopAnimating()
}
}
extension UIImagePickerController {
open override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// self.modalPresentationStyle = .fullScreen
}
}

issue is, when click Use photo, the webkit refresh automatically instead showing on page
Because you self.webview.load(req) in
override func viewWillAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
shows camera or photo library, then return to this page
func viewWillAppear called again
self.webview.load(req) called again
do it simple ,
put self.webview.load(req) the relevant in
override func viewDidLoad() {
