Usage

This package is not an endorsed implementation of webview_flutter. Therefore, you have to include webview_flutter_tizen alongside webview_flutter as dependencies in your pubspec.yaml file.

dependencies:
  webview_flutter: ^4.4.2
  webview_flutter_tizen: ^0.9.2

Example

import 'package:webview_flutter/webview_flutter.dart';

class WebViewExample extends StatefulWidget {
  const WebViewExample({super.key});

  @override
  State<WebViewExample> createState() => _WebViewExampleState();
}

class _WebViewExampleState extends State<WebViewExample> {
  final WebViewController _controller = WebViewController();

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();

    _controller.loadRequest(Uri.parse('https://flutter.dev'));
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: WebViewWidget(controller: _controller),
    );
  }
}

Supported devices

This plugin is only supported on Tizen TV devices running Tizen 5.5 or later.

Note

• To play Youtube, make app's background color to transparent.

   @override

     return Scaffold(

+       backgroundColor: Colors.transparent,
       appBar: AppBar(
         title: const Text('Flutter WebView example'),

• In Tizen 6.0, there were some devices that failed to create the web view. In this case, the creation failure is resolved by using the Upgrade Web Engine (UWE) internally. If you set the WebViewController.tizenEnginePolicy extension API to true before creating the WebviewWidget, the webview will internally search for another version of the engine. However, this API can be changed(or removed) at any time and is not officially guaranteed to work.

import 'package:webview_flutter_tizen/webview_flutter_tizen.dart';

WebViewController _controller;
_controller.tizenEnginePolicy = true;
