MOCA iOS SDK 3.8.0+ provides new API calls to instrument your WebViews and exposes MOCA JS
API to your JavaScript pages through the native bridge.

This new feature consists of 3 components:

  • New API that enables you to inject a native bridge to your WebView component.
  • Native bridge implementation embedded in MOCA SDK to handle messages from
    WebView directed to MOCA SDK
  • MOCA JavaScript API you can use in your WebView rendered HTML/Javascript
    pages to call native MOCA SDK.

The new API calls added to MOCA.h file allow you to register MOCA native bridge to your
WebView component.

// Adds a native bridge script message handler to the WebView content
// controller so that page content itself can call native MOCA SDK.
// This method registers native script message handler to your WebView
//controller and loads MOCA JavaScript interface to your HTML/JS page.
+ (void)registerNativeBridge:(WKUserContentController*)controller;

// This method unregisters the native bridge from a WebView that was
// registered previously and is no longer needed.*
+ (void)unregisterNativeBridge:(WKUserContentController*)controller;

The following example shows how to create a WKWebView component and register MOCA
native bridge. Internally, MOCA SDK loads JavaScript library script into the WebView and
registers native script command handler.

WKUserContentController *controller = [[WKUserContentController alloc] init];
[MOCA registerNativeBridge:controller];

WKWebViewConfiguration *webViewConfig = [[WKWebViewConfiguration alloc] init];
webViewConfig.userContentController = controller;
webViewConfig.preferences.javaScriptEnabled = YES;

WKWebView *webView = [[WKWebView alloc] initWithFrame:frame
configuration:webViewConfig];

Once instantiated, the MOCA native bridge exposes MOCA JavaScript API to your web
page rendered within WebView. This API exposes window.moca object with the following
interface:

  • moca.trackViewed (item, category) // tracks a viewed item.

    • item : string - item identifier or name. Required.
    • category : string - item category or null. Optional.
  • moca.addToFavList (item) // adds an item to the list of favourite items

    • item : string - item identifier or name. Required.
  • moca.removeFromFavList (item) // removes an item from the list of favourite items

    • item : string - item identifier or name. Required.
  • moca.clearFavList (item) // clear the list of favourite items

  • moca.addToWishList (item) // adds an item to the wish list

    • item : string - item identifier or name. Required.
  • moca.removeFromWishList (item) // removes an item from the wish list

    • item : string - item identifier or name. Required.
  • moca.clearWishList (item) // clear the wish list

  • moca.addToCart (item, category, unitPrice, currency, quantity) // adds an item
    to the shopping cart.

    • item: string - item identifier or name. Required.
    • category: string - item category or null. Optional.
    • unitPrice: double - item unit price in given currency. Required.
    • currency: string - currency string, for example EUR or USD. Required.
    • quantity: int - positive number of items to be added.
  • moca.updateCart (item, category) // updates a quantity of an item in the shopping cart.

    • item: string - item identifier or name. Required.
    • quantity: int - positive number of items to be added
  • moca.removeFromCart (item) // remove an item from the shopping cart. If quantity is
    bigger than 1, all are removed.

    • item : string - item identifier or name. Required.
  • moca.clearCart () // clears the shopping cart by removing all the items.

  • moca.beginCheckout () // marks the being of the checkout process of the shopping cart.

  • moca.completeCheckout () // notifies that the user has completed the checkout of the
    shopping cart and purchased the items. This operation clears the shopping cart.

  • moca.trackPurchased (item, category, unitPrice, currency, quantity) // tracks
    the purchase of an item to a user purchase history.

    • item : string - item identifier or name. Required.
    • category : string - item category or null. Optional.
    • unitPrice : double - item unit price in given currency. Required.
    • currency : string - currency string, for example EUR or USD. Required.
    • quantity : int - positive number of items to be added.
  • moca.addTag (tagName, value) // adds a tag to user profile.

    • tagName : string - tag name. Required.
    • value: string - tag value or increment, for example :
      • “+1” -- increment tag value by 1
      • “+2” -- increment tag value by 2
      • “=5” -- set tag value to 5
      • “-1” -- decrement tag value by 1

In order to install MOCA JS calls, it is necessary to implement mocaReady event handler as
shown in the example below.

document.addEventListener("mocaReady", function(event) {
log("MOCA JS is ready");
installEvents ();
}

You can test the correct integration using this HTML snippet on the MOCA Console.
