Load resources from relative path using local html in uiwebview

In Swift:

 func pathForResource(  name: String?, 
                        ofType ext: String?, 
                        inDirectory subpath: String?) -> String?  {

  // **name:** Name of Hmtl
  // **ofType ext:** extension for type of file. In this case "html"
  // **inDirectory subpath:** the folder where are the file. 
  //    In this case the file is in root folder

    let path = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource(             "dados",
                                                     ofType:      "html", 
                                                     inDirectory: "root")
    var requestURL = NSURL(string:path!)
    var request = NSURLRequest(URL:requestURL)

    webView.loadRequest(request)
}

I crammed everything into one line (bad I know) and had no troubles with it:

[webView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"test" 
                                                                                                         ofType:@"html"]
                                                             isDirectory:NO]]];         

This is how to load/use a local html with relative references.

1. Drag the resource into your xcode project (I dragged a folder named www from my finder window), you will get two options "create groups for any added folders" and "create folders references for any added folders".
2. Select the "create folder references.." option.

3. Use the below given code. It should work like a charm.

   NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"index" ofType:@"html" inDirectory:@"www"]];
[webview loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url]];

Now all your relative links(like img/.gif, js/.js) in the html should get resolved.

Swift 3

    if let path = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "dados", ofType: "html", inDirectory: "root") {
        webView.load( URLRequest(url: URL(fileURLWithPath: path)) )
    }
