Wkwebview Open Links from Certain Domain in Safari

WKWebView open links from certain domain in safari

You can implement WKNavigationDelegate, add the decidePolicyForNavigationAction method and check there the navigationType and requested url. I have used google.com below but you can just change it to your domain:

Xcode 8.3 • Swift 3.1 or later

import UIKit
import WebKit

class ViewController: UIViewController, WKNavigationDelegate {

    let webView = WKWebView()

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        
        webView.frame = view.bounds
        webView.navigationDelegate = self

        let url = URL(string: "https://www.google.com")!
        let urlRequest = URLRequest(url: url)

        webView.load(urlRequest)
        webView.autoresizingMask = [.flexibleWidth,.flexibleHeight]
        view.addSubview(webView)
    }

    func webView(_ webView: WKWebView, decidePolicyFor navigationAction: WKNavigationAction, decisionHandler: @escaping (WKNavigationActionPolicy) -> Void) {
        if navigationAction.navigationType == .linkActivated  {
            if let url = navigationAction.request.url,
                let host = url.host, !host.hasPrefix("www.google.com"),
                UIApplication.shared.canOpenURL(url) {
                UIApplication.shared.open(url)
                print(url)
                print("Redirected to browser. No need to open it locally")
                decisionHandler(.cancel)
                return
            } else {
                print("Open it locally")
                decisionHandler(.allow)
                return
            }
        } else {
            print("not a user click")
            decisionHandler(.allow)
            return
        }
    }
}

WKWebView Open _Bank Target Links in Safari

This is what eventually worked for me. Seems to open any url (including javascript type popovers used in YouTube) in Safari instead of opening them in WKWebView (or not opening them at all).

- (WKWebView *)webView:(WKWebView *)webView createWebViewWithConfiguration:(WKWebViewConfiguration *)configuration forNavigationAction:(WKNavigationAction *)navigationAction windowFeatures:(WKWindowFeatures *)windowFeatures
{
    NSLog(@"createWebViewWithConfiguration %@ %@", navigationAction, windowFeatures);
    if (!navigationAction.targetFrame.isMainFrame) {
       [[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] openURL:[navigationAction.request URL]];
    }
    return nil;
}

Unable to open external link in safari using WKWebView

i was missing the order

let webConfiguration = WKWebViewConfiguration()
    webView =  WKWebView(frame: .zero, configuration: webConfiguration)
    webView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
    webViewContainer.addSubview(webView)
    [webView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: webViewContainer.topAnchor),
     webView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: webViewContainer.bottomAnchor),
     webView.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: webViewContainer.leftAnchor),
     webView.rightAnchor.constraint(equalTo: 
      webViewContainer.rightAnchor)].forEach  { anchor in
        anchor.isActive = true
    }
    self.webView.uiDelegate = self
    self.webView.navigationDelegate = self
