WebScripting

WebScripting is an informal protocol that defines methods that classes can implement to export their interfaces to a WebScript environment such as JavaScript.

Overview 概要

Not all properties and methods are exported to JavaScript by default. The object needs to implement the class methods described below to specify the properties and methods to export. Furthermore, a method is not exported if its return type and all its parameters are not Objective-C objects or scalars.

Method argument and return types that are Objective-C objects will be converted to appropriate types for the scripting environment. For example: 例えば:

  • nil is converted to undefined.

  • NSNumber objects will be converted to JavaScript numbers.

  • NSString objects will be converted to JavaScript strings.

  • NSArray objects will be mapped to special read-only arrays.

  • NSNull will be converted to JavaScript’s null.

  • WebUndefined will be converted to undefined.

  • WebScriptObject instances will be unwrapped for the scripting environment.

Instances of all other classes will be wrapped before being passed to the script, and unwrapped as they return to Objective-C. Primitive types such as int and char are cast to a numeric in JavaScript.

Access to an object’s attributes, such as instance variables, is managed by key-value coding (KVC). The KVC methods setValue:forKey: and valueForKey: are used to access the attributes of an object from the scripting environment. Additionally, the scripting environment can attempt any number of attribute requests or method invocations that are not exported by your class. You can manage these requests by overriding the setValue:forUndefinedKey: and valueForUndefinedKey: methods from the key-value coding protocol.

Exceptions can be raised from the scripting environment by sending a throwException(_:) message to the relevant WebScriptObject instance. The method raising the exception must be within the scope of the script invocation.
