QML android webview error

Djeff

Hello,

I m trying to display some local html / css file but I get an "ERR_UNKNOWN_URL_SCHEME

I use this to import the html css file on my .pro

deployment.files += test.html
deployment.files += test.css
deployment.path = /assets
INSTALLS += deployment

my c++ file :

QFile file( "assets:/test.html" );

      if( !file.exists() )
      {
        qDebug() << "---------The file" << file.fileName() << "does not exist.-----------------";
      }
      else qDebug() << "---------The file" << file.fileName() << "exist.-----------------";

      engine.rootContext()->setContextProperty("pathToFile", "assets:/test.html");

my .qml file :

WebView {

                id: webview
                url: pathToFile
                anchors.fill: parent
            }

I know that the files exists, but I dont know why it didnt work .... thanks for your help

Hi! Your file path in QFile(...) is correct but when you need an URL for an asset on Android then you have to use file:///android_asset/.... So, assuming your test file is assets:/data/test.html, the correct URL is:

WebView {
  url: "file:///android_asset/data/test.html"
}
