Within my flutter app, I am launching a payment gateway using the url_launcher
plugin with opens the page in a browser. However I would rather have it open in a WebView
plugin instead, within the app.
Do I need to use both? how can implement such.
Please assist
Url launcher
if (selectedPaymentMethod == 'Pay Now' &&
_formKey.currentState!.validate()) {
() async {
final ozowApiRes = await OzowApiProvider()
.createPaymentRequest(
'R${(cart.totalAmount + cart.serviceFee + value * cart.newCylinderPrice).toStringAsFixed(0)}',
userData?['username'],
userData?['phoneNumber'],
userData?['email'],
);
() async {
try {
await launchUrl(
Uri.parse(ozowApiRes.data),
);
} catch (ex) {
throw 'Could not launch $ozowApiRes';
}
}();
}();
To do this, you can use url_launcher or flutter_inappwebview. I will recommend you to use flutter_inappwebview if possible cause url_launcher 100% not guaranteed
you to launch in inAppWebView and also flutter_inappwebview gives you the granular controll in a page.
(1) you can use url_launcher with mode LaunchMode.inAppWebView
await launchUrl(
Uri.parse("https://www.google.com/"),
mode: LaunchMode.inAppWebView,
);
(2) or you can use a stateless widget page with flutter_inappwebview and just pass the purchase url
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_inappwebview/flutter_inappwebview.dart';
class InAppPurchasePage extends StatelessWidget {
const InAppPurchasePage({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
title: const Text("Purchase Page"),
),
body: InAppWebView(
initialUrlRequest: URLRequest(
url: Uri.parse(
"https://flutter.dev",
),
),
),
);
}
}
