Pull to refresh not working in iOS WebView

Question

I\'ve implemented a straight forward WKWebView in iOS.

   var refreshControl = UIRefreshControl()
    refreshControl.addTarget(self, action: Sel         


        

Answer 1

Following code will put the refresh control in scrollview of webview.Initially it will load google.com. To see pull to refresh clearly I have set white color to the background of scroll view so it is clearly visible and on pull to refresh webview opens facebook page.

override func viewDidLoad() {

  super.viewDidLoad()
  // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.

    self.refreshControl = UIRefreshControl.init()
    refreshControl!.addTarget(self, action:#selector(refreshControlClicked), for: UIControlEvents.valueChanged)
    self.webView.scrollView.addSubview(self.refreshControl!)

    self.webView.scrollView.backgroundColor = UIColor.white

    self.webView.delegate = self


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

    self.loadRequestWithUrl(URLRequest.init(url: url))

}


func webViewDidStartLoad(_ webView: UIWebView) {

    NSLog("website loaded")
}

func loadRequestWithUrl(_ urlRequest : URLRequest?){

    if(urlRequest != nil){

        self.webView.loadRequest(urlRequest!)
    }
}

func refreshControlClicked(){

    let url:URL = URL.init(string:"https://www.facebook.com")!

    self.loadRequestWithUrl(URLRequest.init(url: url))
}
