EachScape Actions in JavaScript. 


 


Introduction


The EachScape Native JavaScript SDK (ESLib) is a cross-platform set of JavaScript objects and methods that can be used to control an app through reading and writing variables and executing actions in a browserless javascript context.

 Using the EachScape Native JavaScript SDK (ESLib) you can access EachScape Actions in JavaScript.

EachScape Actions give users access to iOS and Android native features: GPS, Camera,...




Concept

ESLib is a native JavaScript SDK used to run EachScape Actions from JavaScript.

ESLib is accessible via the JavaScript Editor.
There are 2 places where users can enter JavaScript using the JS Editor:

  1. When the JS is associated to an Event
  2. Among other EachScape Actions, by using using the action : "JavaScript"


Both will use JavaScript Editor to enter JS in the app.

 

Tutorial App
The JavaScript Tutorial app illustrate the use of ESLib.

All the actions in the Tutorial App are executed in JavaScript 
using the ESLib SDK



Launching JavaScript through an Event

An Event can trigger a JavaScript.

That JavaScript can use ESLib to insert EachScape Actions inside the JS.


When associating an Action(s) to an Event, users can select either

  1. EachScape Action Script
  2. JavaScript

 

 


Choosing JavaScript will associate a JavaScript to that Event.

When selecting the "JavaScript" option the JavaScript Editor is displayed:



In this example, we use JavaScript to parse an EachScape variable v_customerID andt insert some "-" to separate the digits for a better readability.

But most importantly, this JavaScrip uses ESLib.
Specifially to set up a variable using ESLib method ESLib.setVar

Launching JavaScript through an Action

The code below is entered under 'Script' in the "JavaScript" Action.
The "JavaScript" action can be called as one of many EachScape Action.


In this example the JavaScript action is called before 3 other actions (Set Container Block, Remove A Layer, Refresh Block)
