SystemEvents Interface

An application can receive notifications of system events by the SystemEvents interface.
The below table shows supported event types.

[1] Supported only on WebAppRuntime v1.2.65.11.

The SystemEvents interface offers methods to inform the changes of system events (shown in the above table) to an application. An application can control their status by receiving system event status. (i.e. An application can add the decimated object tag only when external input event has been detected.)

Interface: SystemEvents

Methods

• void addListener(SystemEventsTypeId type, SystemEventsCallback callback)
• void removeListener(SystemEventsTypeId type, SystemEventsCallback callback)

Interface: SystemEvent

SystemEvent is the event of SystemEventsCallback.

Attributes

• SystemEventsTypeId systemEventTypeId
• SystemEventInfo eventMessage

Methods

• void preventDefault()

  When the HTML5 application calls preventDefault(), the propagation of the event is stopped. Its default action should not be taken as it normally would be. The HTML5 application should handle its default action explicitly.
  This method is available in InputSrcInfo.

Enum: SystemEventsTypeId

It represents the system event types.

• powerStatusChanged

  Inform RC ON and RC OFF

• networkInterfaceChanged

  Inform network interface (eth/wlan) is enabled or disabled

• networkStatusChanged

  Inform network connection is established, IP status is changed

• inputsStatusChanged

  Inform external input status is changed (support only HDMI)

• volumeInfoChanged

  Inform volume and mute status is changed

• beforeInputSrcChange

  Notify when the change of the input source is requested.

• inputSrcChanged

  Notify when the change of the external input is completed.

Interface: SystemEventInfo

SystemEventInfo is the base interface of each event status.

Attributes

• DOMTimeStamp timeStamp

  timestamp shows the time when the event has been fired.

Interface: PowerStatusInfo

PowerStatusInfo inherits SystemEventInfo and represents the power information.

Attributes

• PowerStatusType status

Enum: PowerStatusType

It represents the RC ON and OFF event types.

• active

  This value represents RC ON

• standby

  This value represents RC OFF

Interface: NetworkInterfaceInfo

NetworkInterfaceInfo inherits SystemEventInfo and represents the network interface (wlan and wired) information.

Attributes

• NetworkInterfaceType netif

  This attribute shows the network interface which is enabled or disabled

• boolean enabled

enabled shows the network interface is enabled or disabled.

• true if network interface is enabled.
• false if network interface is disabled.

Enum: NetworkInterfaceType

NetworkInterfaceType represents network interface type.

• wlan0
• eth0

Interface: NetworkStatusInfo

NetworkStatusInfo inherits SystemEventInfo and represents the network connection status (wlan and wired).

Attributes

• NetworkConnectionStatus connectionInfo

  connectionInfo shows the network connection information (IP address, netmask and so on).

• boolean enabled
  enabled shows the network connection is established or not.

  • true if network is established
  • false if network is disconnected

Interface: NetworkConnectionStatus

NetworkConnectionStatus represents the network connection detail status.

Attributes

• NetworkInterfaceType netif
• DOMString errorDetail
• DOMString hwAddress
• DOMString ipAddrV4
• DOMString ipAddrV6
• DOMString netmask
• DOMString gateway
• Array dns

Interface: InputsStatusInfo

InputsStatusInfo inherits SystemEventInfo and represents the external input (HDMI) status.

Attributes

• DOMString uri

  uri shows external input which changes status.

• DOMString title

  title shows the name of external input (e.g. HDMI 1, HDMI 2, ...)

• boolean connection

  connection shows HDMI device connection status.

  • true if HDMI device is connected.
  • false if HDMI device is disconnected

• boolean status

  status shows HDMI signal status.

  • true if HDMI input signal is detected.
  • false if HDMI input signal is lost.

Interface: VolumeInfo

VolumeInfo inherits SystemEventInfo and represents the volume status.

Attributes

• Numeric volume

  volume shows volume value.

• boolean mute

  mute shows volume is muted or not.

  • true if volume turn to muted.
  • false if mute is canceled.

Interface: InputSrcInfo

InputSrcInfo inherits SystemEventInfo and represents the information related to beforeInputSrcChange and inputSrcChanged .

Attributes

• DOMString uri

  uri shows the URL of the external input.

• DOMString title

  title shows the external input name (e.g. HDMI 1, HDMI 2, ...)

• DOMString dispNum

  dispNum shows the sequence number of the external input (e.g. “HDMI 1”: “1”)
