Adding Uri exclusion list for making some redirect URI to be considered as Universal Links

[b-phygtl]

Hello,

We have been using the Gree plugin for unity for both Android and iOS. One of the things we encountered is that our redirect URIs are Universal Links(iOS) / Deeplinks(Android). That means whenever we encounter such links we would like to have the Android/iOS to trigger an Intent/Activity respectively on each platform.
Currently Gree plugin opens the redirect Uri on the webview itself and we'd like to have Gree create the Intent/Activity calls for platforms.

For that I have modified the plugin to provide an API where one could add an Uri to an exclusion list and whenever there is an Uri with Protocol://your.domainname.com/ comes in it'd call the deeplink in the phone.

I want to create a pull request for your review. I was wondering if you have any suggestion or recommendation to handle this scenario. Please let me know.

Have you looked SetURLPattern()? #550 shows its brief usage.

Yes, I had taken a look at this before.

I do have a question on that.
If I add the redirect URI into the Deny pattern, does the Gree Webview creates an Intent or it gives a call back to the hooked function ?
The reason I asked this is because the SetURLPattern() doesnt seem to create an Intent on Android(as well as in iOS) since the

public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
canGoBack = webView.canGoBack();
canGoForward = webView.canGoForward();
boolean pass = true;
if (mAllowRegex != null && mAllowRegex.matcher(url).find()) {
pass = true;
} else if (mDenyRegex != null && mDenyRegex.matcher(url).find()) {
pass = false;
}
if (!pass) {
return true;
}
if (url.startsWith("unity:")) {
String message = url.substring(6);
mWebViewPlugin.call("CallFromJS", message);
return true;
} else if (mHookRegex != null && mHookRegex.matcher(url).find()) {
mWebViewPlugin.call("CallOnHooked", url);
return true;
} else if (!url.toLowerCase().endsWith(".pdf")
&& !url.startsWith("https://maps.app.goo.gl")
&& (url.startsWith("http://")
|| url.startsWith("https://")
|| url.startsWith("file://")
|| url.startsWith("javascript:"))) {
mWebViewPlugin.call("CallOnStarted", url);
// Let webview handle the URL
return false;
}
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(url));
// PackageManager pm = a.getPackageManager();
// List apps = pm.queryIntentActivities(intent, 0);
// if (apps.size() > 0) {
// view.getContext().startActivity(intent);
// }
try {
view.getContext().startActivity(intent);
} catch (ActivityNotFoundException ex) {
}
return true;
}

It looks like it returns true. Where I was expecting that Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(url)); will be called for deeplink calls.

The deny pattern simply denies a matched request. I guess you can utilize the hooked pattern instead. When a url is hooked, you can receive it with the hooked callback and open it by Application.OpenURL().

I see ! The webview gives me a callback on when an Url is hooked. Let me try that.

Appreciate the help.
