DNG - Client Extension javascript files
Hi,
where can we get hold of the JS files for the Client extension?
I found on a different post in this forum that the TypeScript interface can be downloaded from a running server,
(https://example.com:port/rm/web/com/ibm/rdm/web/extensions/api/interface/RM_API.d.ts)
And I can read all the docs about the API here,
https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RMExtensionsMain
But I can find no where to download the actual JS files for the API.
One answer
There are no JS files for the API - the API gets loaded via the widget initialisation code.
The Client extensions are used to write event driven extensions for the UI itself and only run inside the active DNG client browser window - you don't use them to write a stand alone client. For that you would need to use the other APIs such as the Reportable REST, OSLC or Module API, which are all language agnostic.
Have a look at the examples that can be downloaded from the link in your post. They'll make it clearer exactly what the Client API is
