ServiceExtensionContext (System API)

The ServiceExtensionContext module, inherited from ExtensionContext, provides context for the ServiceExtensionAbility.

You can use the APIs of this module to start, terminate, connect, and disconnect an ability.

Modules to Import

import { common } from '@kit.AbilityKit';

Usage

Before using the ServiceExtensionContext module, you must define a child class that inherits from ServiceExtensionAbility.

Example

import { ServiceExtensionAbility } from '@kit.AbilityKit';
import { rpc } from '@kit.IPCKit';

let commRemote: rpc.IRemoteObject|null; // Release the instance when the connection is disconnected.

class EntryAbility extends ServiceExtensionAbility {
  onCreate() {
    let context = this.context; // Obtain a ServiceExtensionContext instance.
  }
}

ServiceExtensionContext.startAbility

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

Starts an ability. This API can be called only by the main thread. It uses an asynchronous callback to return the result.

System capability: SystemCapability.Ability.AbilityRuntime.Core

System API: This is a system API.

Parameters

Name	Type	Mandatory	Description
want	Want	Yes	Want information about the target ability, such as the ability name and bundle name.
callback	AsyncCallback<void>	Yes	Callback used to return the result. If the ability is started, err is undefined; otherwise, err is an error object.

ServiceExtensionContext.startAbilityByCallWithAccount¹⁰⁺

startAbilityByCallWithAccount(want: Want, accountId: number): Promise<Caller>

Starts an ability with the account ID specified and obtains the caller object for communicating with the ability. This API can be called only by the main thread. It uses a promise to return the result.

This API cannot be used to start the UIAbility with the launch type set to specified.

Observe the following when using this API:

If an application needs to call this API to start an ability that belongs to another user, it must have the ohos.permission.ABILITY_BACKGROUND_COMMUNICATION and ohos.permission.INTERACT_ACROSS_LOCAL_ACCOUNTS permissions.
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 exported of the target ability is false in cross-application scenarios, the caller must have the ohos.permission.START_INVISIBLE_ABILITY permission.
The rules for using this API in the same-device and cross-device scenarios are different. For details, see Component Startup Rules (Stage Model).

Required permissions: ohos.permission.ABILITY_BACKGROUND_COMMUNICATION and ohos.permission.INTERACT_ACROSS_LOCAL_ACCOUNTS

System capability: SystemCapability.Ability.AbilityRuntime.Core

System API: This is a system API.

import { BusinessError } from '@kit.BasicServicesKit';

class EntryAbility extends ServiceExtensionAbility {
  onCreate() {
    let caller: Caller;
    // ID of a system account. The value -1 indicates the current user.
    let accountId = -1;
    // Specify the ability to start.
    let want: Want = {
      bundleName: 'com.acts.actscalleeabilityrely',
      moduleName: 'entry',
      abilityName: 'EntryAbility',
      deviceId: '',
      parameters: {
        // If the value of 'ohos.aafwk.param.callAbilityToForeground' is true, the ability is started in the foreground. If the value is false or not set, the ability is started in the background.
        'ohos.aafwk.param.callAbilityToForeground': true
      }
    };

    try {
      this.context.startAbilityByCallWithAccount(want, accountId)
        .then((obj: Caller) => {
          // Carry out normal service processing.
          caller = obj;
          console.log('startAbilityByCallWithAccount succeed');
        }).catch((error: BusinessError) => {
        // Process service logic errors.

    }
  }
}

ServiceExtensionContext.requestModalUIExtension¹¹⁺

requestModalUIExtension(pickerWant: Want): Promise<void>

Requests the specified foreground application to start the UIExtensionAbility of the corresponding type. The foreground application is specified by bundleName in want.parameters. If bundleName is left unspecified, or if the application specified by bundleName is not running in the foreground or does not exist, the UIExtensionAbility is directly started on the system UI. The UIExtensionAbility to start is determined by the combination of the bundleName, abilityName, and moduleName fields in Want, and its type is determined by the ability.want.params.uiExtensionType field in want.parameters. This API can be called only by the main thread. It uses a promise to return the result.

Before starting the UIExtensionAbility, ensure that the foreground application has finished page initialization. Otherwise, the UIExtensionAbility fails to start and the error message "uiContent is nullptr" is displayed. The application can determine the time to start the UIExtensionAbility by listening for the page loading status. After the page initialization is successful, the key log information "UIContentImpl: focus again" is recorded.

ServiceExtensionContext.openLink¹²⁺

openLink(link:string, options?: OpenLinkOptions): Promise<void>

Starts a UIAbility through App Linking. This API can be called only by the main thread. It uses a promise to return the result.

A URL in the standard format is passed in to the link field to start the target UIAbility based on the implicit Want matching rules. The target UIAbility must have the following filter characteristics to process links of App Linking:

The actions field contains ohos.want.action.viewData.
The entities field contains entity.system.browsable.
The uris field contains elements whose scheme is https and domainVerify is true.

If an input parameter is invalid, for example, a mandatory parameter is not set or the URL set in link is not in the standard format, an exception is thrown. If the parameter verification is successful but an error occurs when starting the target UIAbility, the error information is returned through promise.

System capability: SystemCapability.Ability.AbilityRuntime.Core

System API: This is a system API.

Parameters

Name	Type	Mandatory	Description
