Communicate with <webview> in Electron

问题

I have a <webview> in my Electron app. I'd like to have safe "foreign" communication, the way I would with an iframe through postMessage. So for example:

webview.executeJavaScript("window.parent.postMessage('all done!')");

Is my only choice for communication with this subwebview to turn on nodeIntegration so that I can use sendToHost? Turning on all of nodeIntegration just for this one feature seems like overkill.

回答1:

You can access Electron APIs in the webview preload script, including IPC, even when nodeIntegration is disabled. Your preload script can inject functions into the global namespace that will then be accessible within the page loaded in the webview. A simple example:

webview-preload.js:

const { ipcRenderer } = require('electron')    

global.pingHost = () => {
  ipcRenderer.sendToHost('ping')
}

webview-index.html:

<script>
  pingHost()
</script>

window-index.html:

<script>
  const webview = document.getElementById('mywebview')
  webview.addEventListener('ipc-message', event => {
    // prints "ping"
    console.log(event.channel)
  })
</script>
