Overview

Services are a work in progress. As we are still in the progress of creating a non-ui maintained service, this usage may change.

Example

The simplest service return a new object that has a name property, and methods/properties that give the service its functionality. The "Factory Function" that creates the service is provided with the implementation (this is slightly different for UI Services).

const _speak = () => {  console.warn('Speak is not implemented');};
/** * Factory function to create `HelloWorldService` * * @param {object} implementation * @param {function} implementation.speak - Speak's implementation * @returns HelloWorldService */export default function createHelloWorldService({ speak }) {  return {    name: 'HelloWorldService',    speak: speak || _speak,  };}

A service, once created, can be registered with the ServicesManager to make it accessible to extensions. Similarly, the application code can access named services from the ServicesManager.

// In the applicationconst speak = () => {  window.alert('HELLO WORLD');};const HelloWorldService = createHelloWorldService({ speak });const servicesManager = new ServicesManager();
servicesManager.registerService(HelloWorldService);
// In an extensionconst { HelloWorldService } = servicesManager.services;
if (HelloWorldService) {  HelloWorldService.speak();}
