Install instruction

Install-Package EmptyFlow.SciterAPI

To download sciter you need to open gitlab

Important! Don't forget to select specific build and debug architecture, Any CPU is not allowed in this case. Also you need to select the corresponding sciter library, and it should be of the same architecture as in your project (if you select x64, it means you need to load sciter library from x64 folder).

Getting started

using EmptyFlow.SciterAPI;

var sciterFolder = Environment.CurrentDirectory; // you need specify folder where will be located sciter library file (sciter.dll/libsciter.so/libsciter.dylib)
var host = new SciterAPIHost ( sciterFolder ); // create host and load API
host.CreateMainWindow ( 300, 300, enableDebug: true, enableFeature: true ); // create main window and enable debug mode and sciter features (like access to system in JavaScript)
host.AddWindowEventHandler ( new MyWindowEventHandler ( host ) ); // create and register window Event Handler (via event handler you can handle events from windows or elements)
host.LoadFile ( "file://path/my.html" ); // load HTML page, path specified in first argument
host.Process (); // start sciter and run main loop for show main window

public class MyWindowEventHandler : SciterEventHandler {

    public MyWindowEventHandler ( SciterAPIHost host ) : base ( host.MainWindow, host, SciterEventHandlerMode.Window ) { // define event handler with mode Window (which mean events will be handled from all elements on page)
    }

    public override void BehaviourEvent ( BehaviourEvents cmd, nint heTarget, nint he, nint reason, SciterValue data, string name ) { // handle behaviour events
        if ( cmd == BehaviourEvents.DOCUMENT_READY ) { // if document become ready, which mean it fully loaded
            var appDiv = Host.MakeCssSelector ( "#app" ).First (); // find tag with attribute id=app
            Host.SetElementHtml ( appDiv, "<b>Bold Text!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</b>", SetElementHtml.SIH_REPLACE_CONTENT ); // change html in these tag
        }
    }
}
