UIWebView dynamic content size

Question

I\'ve been looking around and wasnt able to see any swift related ways to do this. I\'m trying to get my UIWebViews height to be dynamic. I have a UIWebView that loads data

Answer 1

Here is my custom class to work with custom UIWebViews, it has everything in it to get the correct scrollview content height, set UIWebView height and create a custom height constraint to get autolayout working. It also loads some custom CSS styling...

class CustomUIWebView: UIWebView, UIWebViewDelegate {

    required init(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
        super.init(coder: aDecoder)
        self.scrollView.scrollEnabled = false
        self.scrollView.bounces = false
        self.delegate = self
    }

    override init(frame: CGRect) {
        super.init(frame: frame)
        self.scrollView.scrollEnabled = false
        self.scrollView.bounces = false
        self.delegate = self
    }

    override func loadHTMLString(string: String!, baseURL: NSURL!) {
        var cssURL:String = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource("webview", ofType: "css")!
        var s:String = ""+string+"";
        var url:NSURL

        if baseURL == nil {
            url = NSBundle.mainBundle().bundleURL
        } else {
            url = baseURL
        }

        super.loadHTMLString(s, baseURL: url)
    }

    func webViewDidFinishLoad(webView: UIWebView) {
        self.webViewResizeToContent(webView)
    }

    func webViewResizeToContent(webView: UIWebView) {
        webView.layoutSubviews()

        // Set to smallest rect value
        var frame:CGRect = webView.frame
        frame.size.height = 1.0
        webView.frame = frame

        var height:CGFloat = webView.scrollView.contentSize.height
        println("UIWebView.height: \(height)")

        webView.setHeight(height: height)
        let heightConstraint = NSLayoutConstraint(item: webView, attribute: NSLayoutAttribute.Height, relatedBy: NSLayoutRelation.Equal, toItem: nil, attribute: NSLayoutAttribute.Height, multiplier: 1.0, constant: height)
        webView.addConstraint(heightConstraint)

        // Set layout flag
        webView.window?.setNeedsUpdateConstraints()
        webView.window?.setNeedsLayout()
    }

}
