@ohos.application.StaticSubscriberExtensionContext (StaticSubscriberExtensionContext)

The StaticSubscriberExtensionContext module, inherited from ExtensionContext, provides context for StaticSubscriberExtensionAbilities.

You can use the APIs of this module to start StaticSubscriberExtensionAbilities.

NOTE

The initial APIs of this module are supported since API version 10. Newly added APIs will be marked with a superscript to indicate their earliest API version. The APIs of this module can be used only in the stage model.

Modules to Import

import StaticSubscriberExtensionContext from '@ohos.application.StaticSubscriberExtensionContext'

Usage

Before using the StaticSubscriberExtensionContext module, you must first obtain a StaticSubscriberExtensionAbility instance.

import StaticSubscriberExtensionAbility from '@ohos.application.StaticSubscriberExtensionAbility'
import StaticSubscriberExtensionContext from '@ohos.application.StaticSubscriberExtensionContext'

export default class MyStaticSubscriberExtensionAbility extends StaticSubscriberExtensionAbility {
    context: StaticSubscriberExtensionContext = this.context;
};

StaticSubscriberExtensionContext.startAbility

startAbility(want: Want, callback: AsyncCallback<void>): void;

Starts an ability that belongs to the same application as this StaticSubscriberExtensionAbility. This API uses an asynchronous callback to return the result.

Observe the following when using this API:

If an application running in the background needs to call this API to start an ability, it must have the ohos.permission.START_ABILITIES_FROM_BACKGROUND permission.
If visible of the target ability is false in cross-application scenarios, the caller must have the ohos.permission.START_INVISIBLE_ABILITY permission.

Required permissions: ohos.permission.START_ABILITIES_FROM_BACKGROUND

System capability: SystemCapability.Ability.AbilityRuntime.Core

System API: This is a system API and cannot be called by third-party applications.

Parameters

Name	Type	Mandatory	Description
want	Want	Yes	Want information about the target ability.
callback	AsyncCallback<void>	Yes	Callback used to return the result.

};

try {
  this.context.startAbility(want, (error: BusinessError) => {
    if (error) {
      // Process service logic errors.
      console.log('startAbility failed, error.code: ' + JSON.stringify(error.code) +
      ' error.message: ' + JSON.stringify(error.message));
      return;
    }
    // Carry out normal service processing.

  let code = (paramError as BusinessError).code;
  let message = (paramError as BusinessError).message;
  console.log('startAbility failed, error.code: ' + JSON.stringify(code) +
  ' error.message: ' + JSON.stringify(message));
