SKY UX Add-in Client Library

The SKY UX Add-in Client Library wraps the lower-level SKY Add-in Client Library and provides an Angular service that can be more easily consumed by SKY UX SPAs. It also provides an optional plugin that can be used to inject the Environment ID context into your SKY UX SPA automatically, removing the need to track and manage the Environment ID in each component.

Installation

Install both libraries as dependencies of your project using npm:

npm install --save @blackbaud/skyux-lib-addin-client
npm install --save @blackbaud/sky-addin-client

Use

To use the service, import it into your SPA's app-extras.module.ts file and add it to the providers array:

import {
  NgModule
} from '@angular/core';

import {
  AddinClientService
} from '@blackbaud/skyux-lib-addin-client';

@NgModule({
  providers: [AddinClientService]
})

export class AppExtrasModule { }

Then, inject it into your component as part of the constructor:

import {
  Component,
  OnInit
} from '@angular/core';

import {
  AddinClientService
} from '@blackbaud/skyux-lib-addin-client';

import {
  AddinClientInitArgs
} from '@blackbaud/sky-addin-client';

@Component({
  selector: 'my-tile',
  templateUrl: './my-tile.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./my-tile.component.scss']
})
export class MyTileComponent implements OnInit {
  public context: any;

  constructor(private addinClientService: AddinClientService) {}

  public ngOnInit() {
    this.addinClientService.args.subscribe((args: AddinClientInitArgs) => {
      this.context = args.context;

      args.ready({
        showUI: true,
        title: 'My tile',
        tileConfig: {
          summaryStyle: AddinTileSummaryStyle.Text,
          summaryText: 'Summary text',
          showHelp: true,
          showSettings: true
        }
      });
    });

    // Handle tile help icon click
    this.addinClientService.helpClick.subscribe(() => {
      this.showHelp();
    });

    // Handle tile settings icon click
    this.addinClientService.settingsClick.subscribe(() => {
      this.showSettings();
    });
  }

  private showHelp() {
    // Define what happens when the help icon is clicked
  }

  private showSettings() {
    // Define what happens when the settings icon is clicked
  }

}

The AddinClientService provides wrapper methods over the lower-level implementation. So you can obtain a user identity token using the getUserIdentityToken() function (previously named getAuthToken()):

this.addinClientService.getUserIdentityToken().subscribe((token: string) => {
  this.userIdentityToken = token;
});

You can navigate the host page using the navigate method:

this.addinClientService.navigate({
  url: someUrl
});

The help window can be popped using the openHelp method:

this.addinClientService.openHelp({
  helpKey: someHelpKey
});

You can show a modal using the showModal method:

this.addinClientService.showModal({
  url: someUrl,
  context: someContextObject
}).subscribe((modalResponse: any) => {
  // Define response from closing a modal
});

You can show a toast using the showToast method:

this.addinClientService.showToast({
  message: someMessage,
  style: AddinToastStyle.Info
});

You can show a flyout using the showFlyout method:

this.addinClientService.showFlyout({
  url: someUrl,
  context: someContextObject
}).subscribe(() => {
  // Define what happens when a flyout has closed
});

You can show a confirm dialog using the showConfirm method:

this.addinClientService.showConfirm({
  message: 'confirm title',
  body: 'confirm message body',
  buttons: [
    {
      action: 'ok',
      text: 'OK',
      autofocus: true,
      style: AddinConfirmButtonStyle.Primary
    },
    {
      action: 'cancel',
      text: 'Cancel',
      style: AddinConfirmButtonStyle.Link
    }
  ]
}).subscribe((action) => {
  // Handle the action returned when the dialog closes
});

You can show an error dialog using the showError method:

this.addinClientService.showError({
  closeText: 'OK',
  description: 'An unexpected error occurred',
  title: 'Error'
});

You can handle entry form add-in events using the addEventHandler method:

this.addinClientService.addEventHandler({
  eventType: 'form-data-update'
}).addinEvent.subscribe((addinEvent: AddinEvent) => {
  // get updated data from addinEvent.context object
});

this.addinClientService.addEventHandler({
  eventType: 'form-save'
}).addinEvent.subscribe((addinEvent: AddinEvent) => {
  // handle the save event, asynchronously

  addinEvent.done(); // When done, call the done function (tells the entry form it's OK to close)
});

this.addinClientService.addEventHandler({
  eventType: 'form-cancel'
}).addinEvent.subscribe((addinEvent: AddinEvent) => {
  // handle the cancel event, asynchronously

  addinEvent.done(); // When done, call the done function (tells the entry form it's OK to close)
});

You can send a custom event to the host page, as long as the host supports the event type. Before sending an event to the host page, you must subscribe to the AddinClientService's init args event and check the supportedEventTypes property to determine what event types the host page will handle. Sending custom events to the host page is currently only supported for Blackbaud internal use.

this.addinClientService.args.subscribe((args: AddinClientInitArgs) => {
  this.supportedEventTypes = args.supportedEventTypes;

  args.ready({
    showUI: true
  });
});

// Before sending event, check to make sure the event is supported by the host page
if (this.supportedEventTypes.includes('my-event-type')) {
  // To send add-in events to the host, call the sendEvent method
  this.addinClientService.sendEvent({
    type: 'my-event-type',
    context: { /* context object to pass to host page */ }
  }).subscribe(() => {
    // host page received the event
  }, (err) => {
    // an error occurred while attempting to send the event
  });
}

To determine the add-in extension points that support custom events, please see https://developer.blackbaud.com/skyapi/docs/addins/concepts/extension-points.

Finally, you can show/hide a page-blocking wait using the showWait and hideWait methods:

this.addinClientService.showWait();
// Execute code
this.addinClientService.hideWait();

The optional plugin can be installed by running npm install @blackbaud/skyux-builder-plugin-addin-client, and then adding it to the plugins array in your skyuxconfig.json file:

{
  "mode": "easy",
  "compileMode": "aot",
  "a11y": true,
  "plugins": [
    '@blackbaud/skyux-builder-plugin-addin-client'
  ],
  "params": {
    "envid": {
      "required": true
    }
  }
}

The plugin automatically injects the Environment ID into your component, making it available via the SkyAppConfig service.
