Question

I want to load a local html file into a string variable. I do not know how to do that. please, help. I found the link below, but downloaded it from the online url. Swift element and UIWebView to hide

Answer 1

Copy html to the project directory and use this code:

@IBOutlet weak var webView: UIWebView!
override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

        var htmlFile = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource("MyHtmlFile", ofType: "html")
        var htmlString = try? String(contentsOfFile: htmlFile!, encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding)
        webView.loadHTMLString(htmlString!, baseURL: nil)


}

Answer 2

In Swift 3:

    let htmlFile = Bundle.main.path(forResource:"MyHtmlFile", ofType: "html")
    let htmlString = try? String(contentsOfFile: htmlFile!, encoding: String.Encoding.utf8)
    webView.loadHTMLString(htmlString!, baseURL: nil)

I recommend using an optional chain instead of deploying power htmlString, as described above.

                html = try String(contentsOf: htmlPathURL, encoding: .utf8)
            } catch  {
