Today gadget developers need to write the same few lines of javascript to access the embedded experiences context.
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
gadgets.util.registerOnLoadHandler(function() {
opensocial.data.getDataContext().registerListener('org.opensocial.ee.context', function(key) {
var context = opensocial.data.getDataContext().getDataSet(key);
//finally do something with the context
});
});
|
This code is the same for ALL embedded experience gadgets who want to access their context, no matter what. It can be simplified and made easier for the gadget developer by wrapping all of this code in a simple API...
<static> gadgets.ee.registerContextListener(listener)
Description: Registers a listener for when the embedded experience context object is passed to the gadget. The listener will be called whenever the context object is updated for this gadget.
Parameters:
Name | Type | Description |
