Capture Redirect Url In Wkwebview In Ios


Answer :

Use this WKNavigationDelegate method

public func webView(_ webView: WKWebView, decidePolicyFor navigationAction: WKNavigationAction, decisionHandler: @escaping (WKNavigationActionPolicy) -> Swift.Void) {         if(navigationAction.navigationType == .other) {             if navigationAction.request.url != nil {                 //do what you need with url                 //self.delegate?.openURL(url: navigationAction.request.url!)             }             decisionHandler(.cancel)             return         }         decisionHandler(.allow)     }

Hope this helps


(This answers the slightly more general question of how to detect a URL redirection in WKWebView, which is the search that lead me to this page.)

Short answer

Use WKNavigationDelegate's webView(_:didReceiveServerRedirectForProvisionalNavigation:) function and examine WKWebView's URL property.

Longer answer

There are a couple of places you could detect a server-side redirect.

On iOS 10.3.3 and iOS 11.0, the sequence of events I observe when loading a URL that gets redirected by the server is:

  1. The WKNavigationDelegate function webView(_:decidePolicyFor:decisionHandler:) is called for the original URL request. WKWebView's URL property is set to the original URL.

  2. The WKNavigationDelegate function webView(_:didStartProvisionalNavigation:) is called for the original URL request. WKWebView's URL property is set to the original URL.

  3. The WKWebView's URL property is updated by WebKit to the redirection URL. (You'll only know about this if you are key-value observing the property.)

  4. The WKNavigationDelegate function webView(_:decidePolicyFor:decisionHandler:) is called for the redirected URL request. WKWebView's URL property is then redirection URL.

  5. The WKNavigationDelegate function webView(_:didReceiveServerRedirectForProvisionalNavigation:) is called. WKWebView's URL property is the redirection URL.

(Note: On the iOS 11.0 simulator I have seen steps 3 and 4 reversed, with the URL property unchanged in webView(_:decidePolicyFor:decisionHandler:), which actually seems like a sensible ordering, but I haven't observed this on a device.)

It seems like the webView(_:didReceiveServerRedirectForProvisionalNavigation:) is built explicitly for the purpose of detecting redirects so is probably the preferred option, although the redirect could be possibly be inferred at steps 3 or 4 but only if you can be sure that there are no other causes of navigational change.

Are Regular VACUUM ANALYZE Still Recommended Under 9.1?

Answer : VACUUM is only needed on updated or deleted rows in non-temporary tables. Obviously you're doing lots of INSERTs but it's not obvious from the description that you're also doing lots of UPDATEs or DELETEs. These operations can be tracked with the pg_stat_all_tables view, specifically the n_tup_upd and n_tup_del columns. Also, even more to the point, there is a n_dead_tup column that tells, per table, how much rows need to be vacuumed. (see Monitoring statistics in the doc for functions and views related to statistics gathering). A possible strategy in your case would be to suppress the scheduled VACUUM, keeping an eye on this view and checking on which tables the n_dead_tup is going up significantly. Then apply the aggressive VACUUM to these tables only. This will be a win if there are large tables whose rows never get deleted nor updated and the aggressive VACUUM is really necessary only on smaller tables. But keep running the ANALYZE for the optimiz

Can Feynman Diagrams Be Used To Represent Any Perturbation Theory?

Answer : Diagram machinery works also for perturbation theory in classical statistical mechanics and classical field theories. Generally, various kinds of diagrams constitute a pictorial way of talking about tensor products and their contractions while hiding the multi-linear algebra from the layman. In the simplest case, vertices (or blobs) represent vectors, matrices, tensors; vertices have ingoing and/or outgoing ports; ingoing ports denote (contravariant) ro indices; outgoing ports denote (covariant) co indices; directed arcs between blobs give a pair of equal indices summed over; different base spaces ⇔ \Leftrightarrow ⇔ different arc types; symmetric tensors ⇔ \Leftrightarrow ⇔ undirected diagrams; no labels are needed for internal lines. In many cases, the directed arcs are decorated (as thin, thick, broken,wavy, curly lines), each decoration indicating the presence of a so-called propagator, a function of its label to use as a weight in the sum, which may beco
