Hi, I’m trying to build a robotics dashbord app. Long story short, I want to show an img with an src of http (the camera server doesn’t support HTTPS), but it gets auto-upgraded to HTTPS.
I tried playing with the csp/security config but that didn’t work.
Is there a way I can make something like this work in Tauri?

i don't think that the upgrade can be disabled.
Is it possible to include a localhost proxy? (no idea how that would work)
because even tho it should show the warning for http://localhost the request should still go through unmodified
in theory there is a browser argument (on windows) that should make it work, but there is currently no way to set that in a tauri app

I think it could work but it’s a little bit messed up 😕

I looked that up, is it “missing” in wry or tauri? Is it something that could be added?

In Tauri. There is a setting in wry which actually breaks/overwrites the respective env var so it needs to be implemented in tauri on top
Oh btw, what OS are you on? @fresh stratus (btw the Platform and versions field in the github issue template is annotated with required)
fresh stratus
The problem is on Windows, I’m developing on macOS;
Sorry, I’ll add the platform info ASAP (wanted to add the issue and not forget)
eager venture
yeah alright, i answered as if you're on windows anyway.
You probably can't check if it's also an issue on macOS?
fresh stratus
I might be able to on the weekend
I just filled in details in the GitHub issue, thanks for all the help here. Should I add some details from this conversation to the issue?
eager venture
a link to this thread under "other information" is enough imo

What setting is that? Do you have an example of tauri to wry settings? I’d be glad to try to fix the issue
fresh stratus
If it will be easier to implement in a Tauri/Wry plugin that’d be great as well (I’m thinking of how to fix this)

This is the method in wry: https://docs.rs/wry/latest/x86_64-pc-windows-msvc/wry/webview/struct.WebViewBuilder.html#method.with_additional_browser_args
This tauri pr should be helpful to see how to implement it https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/pull/5317
fresh stratus
Thank you!
fresh stratus
It seems very similar to what you suggested (btw, do you know which browser arg would solve the original issue?), so I went ahead and created a PR (https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/pull/5799)
eager venture
shit i should've included it in my message, i can't find it anymore
maybe --unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure=http://123.123
it wasn't --allow-running-insecure-content even though that should probably work
fresh stratus
I might be able to check this, do you know how I can switch my Tauri app to use my fork? I figure the rust part is easy, but how can I change the node CLI?
eager venture
changing the rust crates should be enough. I think the cli doesn't check the file anymore, does it?
it's described at the top here: https://tauri.app/v1/guides/faq tldr use the cargo based cli instead
fresh stratus
👌
fresh stratus
Thanks again Fabian. I tested this and it fixed the issue 😁
fresh stratus
@eager venture Sadly, even when passing —allow-running-insecure-content, the cameras don’t show. Attaching screenshot. Do you have any idea? The origin also didn’t work, and we have a competition in a couple of days 😬
Perhaps we need to change the CSP header somehow?
fresh stratus
That doesn’t seem to fix it. I think the webview might not be getting the args
eager venture
i'm a bit confused. didn't you say that it worked 2 months ago? 😅
fresh stratus
Yep. I believe it did work, which makes it 10 times more confusing and exhausting…
fresh stratus
Any ideas? @eager venture
eager venture
well i mean we're back at the beginning it seems so we're also back at the same ideas i already mentioned x)
so like, use tauri from git and use the args api to tell it to stop crying about insecure content. The only relevant flags i can think of are these:
--allow-running-insecure-content
--unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure=http://ip123
--disable-web-security
--allow-insecure-localhost
If none of them work you could try https://github.com/tauri-apps/plugins-workspace/tree/dev/plugins/localhost and if that doesn't work either i'm at a loss
fresh stratus
My best guess would be that the flags are no longer being correctly passed to the Webview, perhaps because of a microsoft update or something. Could that be the case?
I did try to add the above flags and they also didn’t work
Maybe there’s a flag I can put in to see if flags work in general?
eager venture
--enable-unsafe-webgpu and then navigate to https://toji.github.io/webgpu-test/
i just did that this week so it's the only flag i can actually tell is supposed to work
fresh stratus
How do I navigate to it?
eager venture
set the window url to it, or open the dev tools and use window.location.replace()
fresh stratus
I will try that asap
fresh stratus
It does seem to be the issue that browser args are no longer getting passed
I’m using temporary solution from here: https://github.com/tauri-apps/wry/issues/415

is it possible that you changed wry/tauri versions or something? The set_var version should've stopped working once wry started to inject its own browser args. That's why we implemented that api in the first place.
