Load local html into UIWebView using swift

Swift 3: type safe

@IBOutlet weak var webView: UIWebView!

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    // Adding webView content
    do {
        guard let filePath = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "myFile", ofType: "html")
            else {
                // File Error
                print ("File reading error")
                return
        }

        let contents =  try String(contentsOfFile: filePath, encoding: .utf8)
        let baseUrl = URL(fileURLWithPath: filePath)
        webView.loadHTMLString(contents as String, baseURL: baseUrl)
    }
    catch {
        print ("File HTML error")
    }
}

Keep in mind: NS = Not Swift :]


To retrieve URLs for application resources, you should use URLForResource method of NSBundle class.

Swift 2

let url = NSBundle.mainBundle().URLForResource("privacy", withExtension:"html") 

Swift 3

let url = Bundle.main.url(forResource: "privacy", withExtension: "html")
