Class
WebKit2WebContext
Description [src]
class WebKit2.WebContext : GObject.Object {
parent: GObject
}Manages aspects common to all WebKitWebViews
The WebKitWebContext manages all aspects common to all
WebKitWebViews.
You can define the WebKitCacheModel and WebKitProcessModel with
webkit_web_context_set_cache_model() and
webkit_web_context_set_process_model(), depending on the needs of
your application. You can access the WebKitSecurityManager to specify
the behaviour of your application regarding security using webkit_web_context_get_security_manager().
It is also possible to change your preferred language or enable
spell checking, using webkit_web_context_set_preferred_languages(),
webkit_web_context_set_spell_checking_languages() and webkit_web_context_set_spell_checking_enabled().
You can use webkit_web_context_register_uri_scheme() to register
custom URI schemes, and manage several other settings.
TLS certificate validation failure is now treated as a transport
error by default. To handle TLS failures differently, you can
connect to WebKitWebView::load-failed-with-tls-errors.
Alternatively, you can use webkit_web_context_set_tls_errors_policy()
to set the policy WEBKIT_TLS_ERRORS_POLICY_IGNORE; however, this is
not appropriate for Internet applications.

Signals
WebKit2.WebContext::automation-started
This signal is emitted when a new automation request is made.
Note that it will never be emitted if automation is not enabled in context,
see webkit_web_context_set_automation_allowed() for more details.
Available since: 2.18
WebKit2.WebContext::download-started
This signal is emitted when a new download request is made.
WebKit2.WebContext::initialize-notification-permissions
This signal is emitted when a WebKitWebContext needs to set
initial notification permissions for a web process. It is emitted
when a new web process is about to be launched, and signals the
most appropriate moment to use
webkit_web_context_initialize_notification_permissions(). If no
notification permissions have changed since the last time this
signal was emitted, then there is no need to call
webkit_web_context_initialize_notification_permissions() again.
Available since: 2.16
WebKit2.WebContext::initialize-web-extensions
This signal is emitted when a new web process is about to be
launched. It signals the most appropriate moment to use
webkit_web_context_set_web_extensions_initialization_user_data()
and webkit_web_context_set_web_extensions_directory().
Available since: 2.4
WebKit2.WebContext::user-message-received
This signal is emitted when a WebKitUserMessage is received from a
WebKitWebExtension. You can reply to the message using webkit_user_message_send_reply().
Available since: 2.28
