Summary: InAppBrowser fails to close with WKWebView OAuth
Key: CB-11136
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-11136
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: iOS, Plugin InAppBrowser, Plugin WKWebViewEngine
Affects Versions: 4.1.0
Environment: iOS 8+ with WKWebView
Reporter: Geordie Jay
Launching InAppBrowser from Cordova iOS Platform 4+ with its WKWebView for
OAuth (e.g. Facebook or Google login) fails to close as it should.
The reason is that the entire WKWebView thread seems to pause when another view
controller is presented. This can be confirmed by inspecting the WKWebView
session in Safari, running `window.open('http://something.com')` and then
trying to enter another command into that Safari console.
I made a hacky but working version of this that animated in the InAppBrowser's
view manually, rather than 'presenting' the ViewController in the traditional
iOS style. In that instance the WKWebView thread continues as normal and
receives the confirmation to close the other InAppBrowser when the OAuth
process is complete.
Maybe there is a better way around this, but at the moment this is a big
usability fail for all WKWebView users.
What do you all think, is the 'not-actually-presenting' way of presenting the
InAppBrowser acceptable? Would be happy to make a pull request along these
lines if it is.
