Mobile (Android Webview)

First, choose the HTML file index-debug-standard.html and rename it to index-mobile.html. (This is optional or you may choose to leave it like that)

Open the HTML file and copy the below codes to your website index or entry HTML file. Paste the codes inside your <head> tag.

Remove all the HTML file but keep the index-mobile.html instead.

Copy the whole live chat directory to your designated path of your web hosting server.

Assume that you want to choose is the indigo theme, then navigate on the index-mobile.html and change the code using the color that you want.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/indigo.css">
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/widget.css">
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/lightslider.css">
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/intlTelInput.css">

Don’t forget to adjust the resource paths which are in index-mobile.html that are used to load files like js, CSS, or image, correspond to where the resources are kept in your server.

<body>

</html>

Lastly, adjust the url, client_id and client_secret properties to correspond your backend’s channel configuration. Please refer back to for more information.

In that section we put our code in the existing website, while in this section we have to host the live chat independently.

Below is a sample code for configuring your webview which displays that already hosted index-mobile.html.

Configure Web View

You need to set enable Javascript and DomStorage For LocalStorage.

webview.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webview.getSettings().setDatabaseEnabled(true);
webview.getSettings().setDomStorageEnabled(true);

Now you can load the URL.

webview.loadUrl("https://hostname/webchat/index-debug-standard.html");

To customize after page load finish, you may run this code.

webview.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
     @Override
     public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url) {
          progressBar.setVisibility(View.GONE);
          super.onPageFinished(view, url);
     }
});

Enable Voice to Text (Speech Recognition)

To enable this feature, first, you need to enable permission for RECORD_AUDIO on android manifest.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.imi.dolphin.bella">

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO"/>
		...
		...
</manifest>

Then, initialize Properties to enable Record Audio Permission.

private static final int RECORD_AUDIO_REQUEST_CODE = 123;
private PermissionRequest permissionRequest;

The permissionRequest property is used to accommodate requests from the web view that will be granted access later.

When the microphone icon is clicked, the browser will ask for permission to the device, your application must catch the request. can be done by:

private void loadLiveChat() {
		...
		...

    webview.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient() {
        @Override
        public void onPermissionRequest(PermissionRequest request) {
            if (request != null) {
                permissionRequest = request;
                askPermission();
            }
        }
    });
}

private void askPermission() {
    if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(getApplicationContext(), 
						Manifest.permission.RECORD_AUDIO) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
        
				ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(
						MainActivity.this, 
						new String[]{Manifest.permission.RECORD_AUDIO}, 
						RECORD_AUDIO_REQUEST_CODE
				);
    } else {
        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) {
            permissionRequest.grant(permissionRequest.getResources());
        }
    }
}

@Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, @NonNull String[] permissions, @NonNull int[] grantResults) {
    if(requestCode == RECORD_AUDIO_REQUEST_CODE){
        if(grantResults.length > 0 && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED){
            if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) {
                permissionRequest.grant(permissionRequest.getResources());
            }
            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Permission Granted", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }
    }
}

Enable Attachment

You need to enable permission for READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE on android manifest.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.imi.dolphin.bella">

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO"/>
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
		...
</manifest>

Then, initialize Properties to access file.

private static final int INPUT_FILE_REQUEST_CODE = 1;
private ValueCallback<Uri[]> mFilePathCallback;

Configure Web View to access file access.

private void loadLiveChat() {
		...
    webview.getSettings().setLoadWithOverviewMode(true);
    webview.getSettings().setAllowFileAccess(true);
		...
		...
}

When the attachment icon is clicked, the browser will ask to open device storage. Can be done by:

private void loadLiveChat() {
    ...
		...

    webview.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient() {
        ...
				...
				@Override
        public boolean onShowFileChooser(WebView webView, ValueCallback<Uri[]> filePathCallback, FileChooserParams fileChooserParams) { 
            if (mFilePathCallback != null) {
                mFilePathCallback.onReceiveValue(null);
            }
            mFilePathCallback = filePathCallback;

            Intent chooserIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
            startActivityForResult(chooserIntent, INPUT_FILE_REQUEST_CODE);
            return true;
        }
    });
}

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, @Nullable Intent data) {
    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) {
        if (requestCode != INPUT_FILE_REQUEST_CODE || mFilePathCallback == null) {
            super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
            return;
        }
        Uri[] results = null;
        if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
            if (data != null) {
                String dataString = data.getDataString();
                results = new Uri[]{Uri.parse(dataString)};
            }
        }
        mFilePathCallback.onReceiveValue(results);
        mFilePathCallback = null;
    }
}
