Disclaimer: This is a module version of Android-SmartWebView which can be found in here: https://github.com/mgks/Android-SmartWebView.
I Do not own the whole code. I only make the original code more compact and ready to use as android module.
This project is developed to help you create Hybrid Android applications with just webview. Hybrid app comes in between webview and native forms, with this project you can embed any existing webpage or setup an Offline HTML/CSS/Javascript based project.
Android Smart WebView gathers all necessary information needed to make any simple app as powerful as a native Android app. This project takes only required data from device to obtain information, including, GPS Location, File Manager, Camera for Processing Images, Custom Dialogues, Notifications and more with clean minimal design.
If you want to simply implement a webview through this project, you can try to import the module and use it directly in your project Activity (Like MainActivity). Follow this step for a quick start:
- Clone or download this repository through this link: https://github.com/jialingkun/SmartWebViewCompact/archive/master.zip
- Create your New Android Studio Project.
- Click File > New > Import Module.
- Enter the location of the module directory (SmartWebView Folder) then click Finish.
- Make sure the library is listed at the top of your settings.gradle file, as shown here
include ':app',':SmartWebView'
- Open the app module's build.gradle file and add a new line to the dependencies block as shown in the following snippet:
dependencies {
implementation project(":SmartWebView")
}
- Click Sync Project with Gradle Files.

RelativeLayout splashScreen = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.logosplash); //logosplash
smartWebViewCompact.onCreate(this,webView,progressBar,splashScreen);

}If you need to put a webview inside fragment, try this code in your Fragment Java Class
FragmentActivity.java
public class FragmentActivity extends Fragment {
SmartWebViewCompact smartWebViewCompact = new SmartWebViewCompact();
@Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
smartWebViewCompact.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
}
@Nullable
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, @Nullable ViewGroup container, @Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.activity_fragment, container, false);
//Permission variables
smartWebViewCompact.ASWP_JSCRIPT = true; //enable JavaScript for webview
smartWebViewCompact.ASWP_FUPLOAD = true; //upload file from webview
smartWebViewCompact.ASWP_CAMUPLOAD = true; //enable upload from camera for photos
smartWebViewCompact.ASWP_ONLYCAM = false; //incase you want only camera files to upload
smartWebViewCompact.ASWP_MULFILE = false; //upload multiple files in webview
smartWebViewCompact.ASWP_LOCATION = false; //track GPS locations
smartWebViewCompact.ASWP_RATINGS = false; //show ratings dialog; auto configured, edit method get_rating() for customizations
smartWebViewCompact.ASWP_PBAR = true; //show progress bar in app
smartWebViewCompact.ASWP_ZOOM = false; //zoom control for webpages view
smartWebViewCompact.ASWP_SFORM = true; //save form cache and auto-fill information
smartWebViewCompact.ASWP_OFFLINE = false; //whether the loading webpages are offline or online
smartWebViewCompact.ASWP_EXTURL = false; //open external url with default browser instead of app webview
smartWebViewCompact.ASWP_ROOT = true; //False if you need to use webview in other intent activity
smartWebViewCompact.ASWP_SPLASH = false; //enable splash screen
//Configuration variables
smartWebViewCompact.ASWV_URL = "https://google.com/"; //complete URL of your website or webpage
smartWebViewCompact.ASWV_F_TYPE = "*/*"; //to upload any file type using "*/*"; check file type references for more
//Rating system variables
DefaultSetting.ASWR_DAYS = 3; //after how many days of usage would you like to show the dialoge
DefaultSetting.ASWR_TIMES = 10; //overall request launch times being ignored
DefaultSetting.ASWR_INTERVAL = 2; //reminding users to rate after days interval
WebView webView = (WebView) view.findViewById(R.id.msw_view);
ProgressBar progressBar = (ProgressBar) view.findViewById(R.id.msw_progress);
RelativeLayout splashScreen = (RelativeLayout) view.findViewById(R.id.logosplash); //logosplash
smartWebViewCompact.onCreate(getActivity(),webView,progressBar,splashScreen);
return view;
}
@Override
public void onSaveInstanceState(@NonNull Bundle outState) {
super.onSaveInstanceState(outState);
smartWebViewCompact.onSaveInstanceState(outState);
}
@Override
public void onActivityCreated(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
if (savedInstanceState != null) {
smartWebViewCompact.onRestoreInstanceState(savedInstanceState);
}
}
}Note: OnBackPressed function currently not supported inside Fragment. Try a workaround by calling the method inside activity that has the fragment.
