Overview

API HTML Surface umožňuje zobrazení a vykreslení stránek formátu HTML přímo ve hře nebo v aplikaci. It is built upon the Chromium Embedded Framework and supports HTML5 markup.

Getting Started with ISteamHTMLSurface

The ISteamHTMLSurface interface is implemented in isteamhtmlsurface.h and can be found in the public/steam folder in the Steamworks SDK. The interface can be accessed through the SteamHTMLSurface() interface pointer.
Below is a list of the most commonly used methods in this API. Please refer to the API reference for details on interacting with the web page (scrolling, clicking links), using javascript, file dialogs, etc.

• ISteamHTMLSurface::Init
  Please ensure Init is called before any use of this interface.
  
• ISteamHTMLSurface::Shutdown
  Please ensure Shutdown is called when no longer using this interface.
  
• ISteamHTMLSurface::CreateBrowser
  This function will create a browser object for display of an HTML page and return a ISteamHTMLSurface::HTML_BrowserReady_t handle to the created browser which can then be used in a CallResult for ::OnBrowserReady.
  
• ISteamHTMLSurface::RemoveBrowser
  Call this when you are done with an HTML surface. This frees the resources being used by it.
  
• ISteamHTMLSurface::SetSize
  Call this to set the size of the HTML rendering area.
  
• ISteamHTMLSurface::LoadURL
  Navigate to the URL. Results in a ISteamHTMLSurface::HTML_StartRequest_t as the request commences.
  
• ISteamHTMLSurface::AllowStartRequest
  You must call this in response to a ISteamHTMLSurface::HTML_StartRequest_t callback.

CallBack Setup

There are a series of callbacks that can be setup to determine when certain browser events occur (see isteamhtmlsurface.h for a complete list). The Steamworks Example demonstrates implementing and using some of these callbacks in htmlsurface.h/.cpp.
To complete a simple HTML Surface implementation, a CallBack for ISteamHTMLSurface::HTML_NeedsPaint_t must be implemented to retrieve the image data for rendering.

Steamworks Example Implementation

The Steamworks API Example Application (SpaceWar) that ships with the SDK contains a basic implementation of the Steam HTML Surface API. Upon launching the sample, scroll down and select HTML Page. The Steam Community home page will then load in the game.
You can find the integration of the Steam HTML Surface API in the htmlsurface.h and htmlsurface.cpp files.
NOTE: Interactivity with the web page has not been implemented in the example at this time.
