@ohos.InputMethodExtensionContext (InputMethodExtensionContext)

The InputMethodExtensionContext module, inherited from ExtensionContext, provides context for InputMethodExtension abilities. You can use the APIs of this module to start, terminate, connect, and disconnect abilities.

NOTE

The initial APIs of this module are supported since API version 9. 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 { InputMethodExtensionContext } from '@kit.IMEKit';

Usage

Before using the InputMethodExtensionContext module, you must define a child class that inherits from InputMethodExtensionAbility.

import { InputMethodExtensionAbility } from '@kit.IMEKit';
import { Want } from '@kit.AbilityKit';
class InputMethodExtnAbility extends InputMethodExtensionAbility {
  onCreate(want: Want): void {
    let context = this.context;
  }
}

InputMethodExtensionContext.destroy

destroy(callback: AsyncCallback<void>): void;

Destroys this input method. This API uses an asynchronous callback to return the result.

System capability: SystemCapability.MiscServices.InputMethodFramework

Parameters

Name	Type	Mandatory	Description
callback	AsyncCallback<void>	Yes	Callback used to return the result. If the operation is successful, err is undefined. Otherwise, err is an error object.

Example

import { InputMethodExtensionAbility } from '@kit.IMEKit';
import { Want } from '@kit.AbilityKit';
import { BusinessError } from '@kit.BasicServicesKit';

class InputMethodExtnAbility extends InputMethodExtensionAbility {
  onCreate(want: Want): void {
    let context = this.context;
  }
  onDestroy() {
    this.context.destroy((err: BusinessError) => {
      if(err) {
        console.log(`Failed to destroy context, err code = ${err.code}`);
        return;
      }
      console.log('Succeeded in destroying context.');
    });
  }
}

InputMethodExtensionContext.destroy

destroy(): Promise<void>;

Destroys this input method. This API uses a promise to return the result.

System capability: SystemCapability.MiscServices.InputMethodFramework

Return value

Type	Description
Promise<void>	Promise that returns no value.

Example

import { InputMethodExtensionAbility } from '@kit.IMEKit';
import { Want } from '@kit.AbilityKit';
import { BusinessError } from '@kit.BasicServicesKit';

class InputMethodExtnAbility extends InputMethodExtensionAbility {
  onCreate(want: Want): void {
    let context = this.context;
  }
  onDestroy() {
    this.context.destroy().then(() => {
      console.log('Succeed in destroying context.');
    }).catch((err: BusinessError)=>{
      console.log(`Failed to destroy context, err code = ${err.code}`);
    });
  }
}

InputMethodExtensionContext.startAbility¹²⁺

startAbility(want: Want): Promise<void>;

Starts an ability. This API uses a promise to return the result.

System capability: SystemCapability.MiscServices.InputMethodFramework

Parameters

Name	Type	Mandatory	Description
want	Want	Yes	Want information related to the extension ability to start, including the ability name and bundle name.

Return value

Type	Description
Promise<void>	Promise that returns no value.
