Creating a PageAbility

When you create a PageAbility on DevEco Studio, DevEco Studio automatically generates the onCreate() and onDestroy() callbacks in app.js and app.ets. You need to implement the other lifecycle callbacks in app.js and app.ets. The following code snippet shows how to create a PageAbility:

class EntryAbility {
  onCreate() {
    console.info('Application onCreate')
  }
  onDestroy() {
    console.info('Application onDestroy')
  }
  onShow() {
    console.info('Application onShow')
  }
  onHide() {
    console.info('Application onHide')
  }
  onActive() {
    console.info('Application onActive')
  }
  onInactive() {
    console.info('Application onInactive')
  }
  onNewWant() {
    console.info('Application onNewWant')
  }
}

export default new EntryAbility()

After the PageAbility is created, its abilities-related configuration items are displayed in the config.json file. The following is an example config.json file of an ability named EntryAbility:

{
  "abilities": [
    {
      "skills": [
        {
          "entities": [
            "entity.system.home"
          ],
          "actions": [
            "action.system.home"
          ]
        }
      ],
      "orientation": "unspecified",
      "visible": true,
      "srcPath": "EntryAbility",
      "name": ".EntryAbility",
      "srcLanguage": "ets",
      "icon": "$media:icon",
      "description": "$string:EntryAbility_desc",
      "formsEnabled": false,
      "label": "$string:EntryAbility_label",
      "type": "page",
      "launchType": "singleton"
    }
  ]
}

In the FA model, you can call getContext of featureAbility to obtain the application context and then use the capabilities provided by the context.

Table 1 featureAbility APIs

API	Description
getContext()	Obtains the application context.

The following code snippet shows how to use getContext() to obtain the application context and distributed directory:

import featureAbility from '@ohos.ability.featureAbility';
import fs from '@ohos.file.fs';

(async () => {
  let dir: string;
  try {
    console.info('Begin to getOrCreateDistributedDir');
    dir = await featureAbility.getContext().getOrCreateDistributedDir();
    console.info('distribute dir is ' + dir);
    let fd: number;
    let path = dir + "/a.txt";
    fd = fs.openSync(path, fs.OpenMode.READ_WRITE).fd;
    fs.close(fd);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('getOrCreateDistributedDir failed with ' + error);
  }
})()
