## Class: BrowserView
|
|
|
|
> Create and control views.
|
|
|
|
**Note:** The BrowserView API is currently experimental and may change or be
|
|
removed in future Electron releases.
|
|
|
|
Process: [Main](../glossary.md#main-process)
|
|
|
|
A `BrowserView` can be used to embed additional web content into a
|
|
`BrowserWindow`. It is like a child window, except that it is positioned
|
|
relative to its owning window. It is meant to be an alternative to the
|
|
`webview` tag.
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
// In the main process.
|
|
const {BrowserView, BrowserWindow} = require('electron')
|
|
|
|
let win = new BrowserWindow({width: 800, height: 600})
|
|
win.on('closed', () => {
|
|
win = null
|
|
})
|
|
|
|
let view = new BrowserView({
|
|
webPreferences: {
|
|
nodeIntegration: false
|
|
}
|
|
})
|
|
win.addChildView(view)
|
|
view.setBounds(0, 0, 300, 300)
|
|
view.webContents.loadURL('https://electron.atom.io')
|
|
```
|
